Juanita Morris, one of the massage therapists at Red Lane Spa gives a guest the West Indian Massage, one of the signature treatments offered at the Red Lane Spa, Sandals Whitehouse European Village.
THE WEST Indian Massage is one of the signature treatments offered at the Red Lane Spa. This massage was designed for the spa, so after being mesmerised by the techniques used in the treatment, don't go elsewhere and request it - it is a Red Lane exclusive.
The massage begins with the placement of warm river stones in the centre of your palm. This small gesture marks the beginning of a 50-minute journey to the soothing Caribbean tropics via the hands of the skilled massage therapist. As you lay face down on the massage table, the aroma of savoury lavender travels up your nostrils, through your airways and tickles your soul as the masterful therapist gives maximum relief to your weary muscles through a series of rubs, tugs and stretches. Alas, bliss does not last forever, and after 50 minutes, the journey culminates with an exfoliation for your feet using wet white sand.
Still, the benefits of the massage remain with you for weeks to come. You will leave feeling relaxed yet refreshed and ready to take on the world.
