What you need to know about the seasonal Monster Mash Pumpkin Massage bringing Halloween wellness to spa goers at One Spa London at The Circle Gym.
Head to One Spa London at The Circle Gym this October and there's a treatment with a twist waiting for you with a unique Monster Mash Pumpkin Massage offering seasonal-inspired wellness to boost your skin and your mood. Here they tell us what it's all about.
Our Pumpkin Massage has been specially designed for the season. With Halloween coming up we wanted to do something different by incorporating all the warming scents and sensations that we all crave as the weather gets gloomy.
The treatment comes in three options:
It's a nice seasonal experience, halloween is coming so we wanted to do something different. We use ingredients and products that contain a pumpkin extract and scents, and we can also add additional scents like vanilla, depending on what the client want to achieve. We also have a matching candle in the room to create a really warming, nurturing atmosphere, and we warm all the oils to enhance that cosy, cared for experience.
In terms of the skin, pumpkin is really great for hydrating the skin, and it's naturally rich in enzymes that gently exfoliate as well. In addition the face mask contains lots of vitamins A, C, and E, which stimulate collagen production, and are especially restorative after the summer months when we all need that extra hydration for the skin. This treatment is very much about preparing for the winter and the dropping temperatures, as well as recovering from the rigours of summer.
In addition, the treatment is really good for helping you feel better in yourself as well, boosting that sense of wellbeing, helping you to feel warm and nurtured and enhancing your mood. The head massage is particularly good for relaxation.
We have purposely made it so that you can enjoy it whether you're short on time or have a couple of hours to spend enjoying your wellbeing. If you are able to have the full 85-minute treatment then it's a real head-to-toe experience that will leave you feeling restored.
The beauty of this treatment is that it's really for everyone. Yes, it's great if you're feeling stressed, and it's wonderful for dehydrated skin, but it's designed to support anyone to feel their best and to simply take time out for themselves.
We will also always tailor the treatment to the individual, whether that's focusing on particular areas during your massage or adjusting pressure for a deeper massage for example.
We wouldn't recommend it during pregnancy, for anyone with severe acne, or for anyone with pumpkin allergies!
There's nothing you need to do, but we would always suggest making a little time around your treatment to relax - don't race straight back to everyday life. If you have time to use the spa facilities beforehand then that will really help you to get into the right headspace and warm the muscles and skin before your treatment. Afterwards, drink plenty of water, eat wholesome food and maybe try not to put make-up on for a few hours to let the products continue to work their magic.
