Whether you need to de-stress or simply treat yourself, taking a peaceful break to unwind is always a good idea. Here are three wellness experiences to enjoy this weekend: a relaxing body massage, a private spa with a floatation pool and sauna, or a facial inspired by traditional Japanese rituals. All that’s left to do is close your eyes, take a deep breath and focus on the sensations of the moment.
The Most On-Trend
Have you spotted maderotherapy on your social media feeds? This technique from Latin America has made its way to Paris, with a studio in the 5th arrondissement using some rather unusual wooden tools: rounded rollers, cubes, spiked instruments and more. The idea is to enjoy a natural, painless massage that stimulates circulation, smooths the skin and helps firm it up. Choose your treatment according to your needs: 20 minutes for the arms, 30 minutes for the stomach or back, or 45 minutes for the legs and buttocks to help tackle the appearance of cellulite. A moment just for you, combining relaxation with a body-contouring boost.
The Most Romantic
Fancy a getaway for two without leaving the city? Head to the 11th arrondissement, where magnificent stone vaulted ceilings set the scene for a fully private spa experience. No strangers in bathrobes here—just you and your other half. Over 50 minutes, you can effortlessly float in a large saltwater pool, feeling as light as a feather, before heading to the sauna for some deep relaxation. Hot and cold drinks are also included, so you can sip at your leisure and savour the moment. A cosy sanctuary all to yourselves, perfect for switching off together.
The Most Sensory
It’s time to focus on your face with a bespoke treatment by Aigo Facialiste in the 9th arrondissement. Here, experts combine time-honoured techniques with modern methods to leave your complexion glowing. The hardest part will be choosing between Kobido, a Japanese facial massage designed to redefine the facial contours and smooth wrinkles; Stretch & Lift, a facial workout that helps release muscle tension; or Gua Sha Sculpt, a draining massage using this ingenious tool to sculpt and brighten the face. For those looking for the ultimate treatment, the 90-minute Signature Massage combines several techniques into a complete ritual tailored to your needs and energy levels. The result? An immediate boost and a genuine opportunity to reconnect with yourself.
