The Experience

Spa & Wellness

Reward yourself (and your hard-working muscles) with a massage or body treatment, letting the day melt away. Aromatherapy or ayurvedic elements can be added into your curated wellness plan.

Massage Therapy

YARA Massage

The nurturing YARA Massage is our signature massage that uses our blended massage oils to completely calm the mind and gently rejuvenate the body. This is an ideal massage for those making a commitment to improve their general well being as it helps to balance both body and mind.

Deep Tissue Massage

YARA’S restorative Deep Tissue Massage relaxes the body and allows for the release of deeply held patterns of tension. The techniques used during this treatment all help to increase blood and lymph flow, so muscles can once again operate at full capacity.

Indonesian Massage

This authentic Indonesian Massage uses our signature blended oil to help rejuvenate the body. Our experts incorporate both rolling and kneading strokes, providing a good therapeutic workout and inducing deep relaxation.

Taksu Massage

The magical transference of energy between two people who connect is called ‘taksu’ in Balinese. This is a strong and invigorating treatment that increases blood circulation and helps to relieve tight muscles. As it can also soothe headaches, this treatment is a welcoming antidote for those affected by stress.

Indian Head Massage

Beginning in a seated position, our Indian Head Massage helps relieve stress-induced tension in the head, neck and shoulders. A gentle facial massage of the nine Marma facial points is also included.

Couple Massage Workshop

A private couple’s massage class, teaching you the skills you need to benefit from this centuries-old healing tradition at home. Our massage therapist will teach you both chair-based and massage bed techniques, explaining the anatomy of the back and the key areas to target. You will be shown each massage sequence in detail, before getting the opportunity to practice on each other.

Reflexology

YARA therapists use reflexology to help induce deep relaxation. By understanding how the body’s organs respond to gentle pressure to reflex points on the feet, our experts can use reflexology to stimulate the body’s natural healing processes. This is an especially nurturing treatment after a day’s travelling or walking.

Hot River Stone Massage

YARA’S Hot River Stone Massage is a powerful therapeutic treatment that uses smooth, warm oiled stones to promote a profound sense of relaxation. Gliding the stones along the muscles, the massage corrects tensions at the deepest level, addressing deep held muscular knots. The treatment also involves dynamic stretches.

Manual Lymphatic Drainage

Manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) is a type of gentle massage designed to encourage lymph drainage, carrying toxins and waste away from the tissues, aiding the body’s natural detoxification process

Sport Massage

Our sports massage is designed for those who participate in athletic activities. It can be enjoyed either before or after physical activity to help prevent injury, maintain optimal condition, and speed muscle recovery.

Thai Massage

Thai Massage assists in unblocking trapped energy and improves vitality. With this type of healing treatment – sometimes known as passive yoga – our expert YARA therapists maneuver your body into yoga-like stretching positions, applying pressure along the meridians and mobilizing joints. No oil is used during this treatment and Thai pajamas are provided.

Ayurvedic Therapies

Abhyanga

Abhyanga is a rhythmic Ayurvedic massage that uses warm herbal oils to help energise the body and improve circulation. As impurities and toxins loosen from the muscles, it helps to enhance the body’s immunity while inducing a state of deep relaxation in the mind.

Pizhichil

During a Pizhichil therapy, warm herbal oil is continuously poured over the entire body. Our YARA therapists combine this Ayurvedic treatment with a soothing massage to create a rejuvenating therapy that counteracts everyday stress.

Shirodhara

Shirodhara is an Ayurvedic treatment that helps to improve focus, concentration and relaxation. After a gentle massage to the neck and shoulder areas, warm oil is poured in a steady stream over the forehead. This deeply calming practice quiets the mind and the senses, helping to improve mental clarity and comprehension.

Abhyanga and Shirodhara

This treatment combines Ayurvedic therapies to relieve neck and shoulder tension. The therapy begins with Abhyanga, a rhythmic massage that uses herbal oils to stimulate the circulation of blood, lymph and prana (energy). This is followed by Shirodhara, a treatment in which a steady stream of oil is gently poured over the forehead to improve clarity of mind. The aim of the session is to help you leave feeling relaxed and refreshed, with a renewed sense of energy.

Abhyanga and Swedana

This dual therapy begins with Abhyanga, a rhythmic massage that uses herbal oils to stimulate the circulation of blood, lymph and prana (energy). This is followed by Swedana, a herbal steam that improves circulation, detoxifies, relieves stiffness, loosens muscles and helps skin tone.

Nasya Karma

This nurturing treatment is excellent for sinus sufferers, as well as those who are coming down with (or recovering from) a cold or the flu. It begins with a gentle face massage, followed by facial steam to prepare the upper respiratory channels for better clearance. Finally, herbalised oils are administered into the nasal passage to facilitate the expulsion of any toxins. It is highly effective at decongesting the nose and sinuses, while also helping to detoxify the upper respiratory system.

Body Therapy

YARA SIGNATURE Bath

Our cleansing YARA Bath treatment gently exfoliates and softens the skin, leaving you feeling refreshed and relaxed. After dry brushing your body, our expert therapists will apply YARA Body Scrub, combining the exfoliating benefits of sea salt and sugar with a nut oil base, as well as luxurious shea butter. Once this has been absorbed into the skin, enjoy an invigorating bath, before the session concludes with the long calming strokes of our signature YARA Massage.

YARA Skin Detoxifying Treatment

Our COMO Shambhala Skin Detoxifying Treatment helps to detox and revive tired skin, and is designed to improve circulation and skin tone. Using our signature products to exfoliate and moisturise, this therapy stimulates lymph flow to restore a healthy glow. A polish using our salt and sugar scrub is followed by a refreshing shower and then completed with the application of our signature moisturizing lotion. The invigorating treatment can be enhanced with the addition of YARA Massage to further stimulate the body’s natural detoxifying functions.

Javanese Royal LuLur Bath

This deeply luxurious treatment is a traditional beauty regime at the Royal Palaces of Central Java, where the treatment’s techniques were first derived. It is perfect for tired skin, combining a soothing Indonesian Massage with an invigorating body scrub and an aromatic bath. The treatment concludes with the application of body lotion to soften and fully hydrate the skin.

Dead Sea Mud Therapy

Our nurturing Dead Sea Mud Therapy helps to extract impurities from the skin, while moisturising the body and relieving muscle tension. The warm mud treatment includes a gentle exfoliating scrub, as well as a face and scalp massage. After a shower, the treatment concludes with our nurturing signature YARA Massage.

Traditional Balinese Body Wrap

The COMO Shambhala Traditional Balinese Body Wrap revives tense muscles, while also aiding to relieve minor rheumatic conditions. Our expert therapists blend hand-crushed rice with warming spices applied to the skin. The all-over deep heat experience relieves aching bodies after exercise, using Taksu massaging techniques to improve circulation.

YARA body and skincare products adhere to Ayurvedic principles based on an ancient eastern philosophy. This is combined with the finest quality ingredients from nature, delivering a holistic approach to wellness that results in outer radiance and inner serenity. Sundãri is an essential part of a lifestyle that enables you to achieve harmony and balance in mind and body.

YARA Age Defying Firming Facial

The YARA Age Defying Firming Facial, using the regenerative properties of Gotu Kola, helps to reclaim your skin’s youth. Not only does it feel luxurious, Gotu Kola instantly exfoliates, firms and improves tone and texture.

YARA Intensive Healing Facial

The YARA Intensive Healing Facial is suitable for very sensitive skin and utilises the purifying benefits of Neem, known in India as the ‘pharmacy tree’. Organic plant extracts are combined with soothing oil to heal, hydrate and firm – restoring balance to sensitive or irritated skin, helping it to regain its youthful glow.

YARA Beautiful Eyes

The luxurious YARA Beautiful Eyes treatment hydrates and firms the delicate eye area. Assisted by penetrating age-defying formulas, this treatment also soothes puffiness, and hydrates and relieves tired eyes.

YARA Firming Neck Treatment

The YARA Firming Neck Treatment helps you reclaim a healthy appearance to the neck area. First, an active exfoliation with enzymes and bamboo extract reduces roughness, uneven pigment and loose skin. Then an energising mask and massage, utilising the rejuvenating effects of Gotu Kola, leaves skin firm, smooth and restored.

YARA 'Essential Supplifying' Facial

The YARA Essential Supplifying Facial breathes new life into dry or stressed skin with a deeply nourishing and intensely hydrating treatment.
