Lava Shell Glacial Detox

Try a different type of massage, one that will purify your body following the festive meals. Using “glacial shells”, which are tiger clams sourced in Asia, two chilled and one heated, the Glacial Detox combines hot and cold pressure to stimulate circulation. By applying long flowing movements, the invigoration treatment aims to eliminate toxins, breakdown fatty tissues, stimulate the digestive system and even ease emotional stress in a full mind and body detox. As it acts as a non-invasive colonic, it’s ideal for weight loss programmes too.

From £55. Treatments are on offer at spas and salons around the country, sharedbeautysecrets.com

Seaweed Oil Massage

If skincare is your worry, then a full body massage using Voya’s brand new ‘Angelicus Serratus’ oil will renew your skin just right. The luxury “super-hydrating” organic aromatic oil is made completely of seaweed, which has been credited with a long list of minerals, vitamins and multiple benefits. Submerge yourself in a revitalising and nourishing experience that will hydrate your skin and leave it glowing, as the oil improves elasticity and cleanses tired skin. While the massage relaxes muscles, relieves stress and improves body’s circulation, the oil nourishes your skin head to toe. The treatment is available at The Landmark hotel in London and in spas across the country.

Prices start from £90 for 45 minutes. Landmarklondon.co.uk
