This is why Chez Les Grottes offers a complete experience with the aim of making you feel good not only physically but also on an emotional and emotional level.
The complete treatment cycle includes:
- autogenic training (mind relaxation technique) – 3 minutes (ON REQUEST)
- massage (variable depending on the technique chosen)

- relaxation in a wellness cave including sauna, Turkish bath, emotional shower, waterfall – 60 minutes
TURKISH BATH
Inside the Hammam, the average temperature is 45° C and the humidity rate is almost 100%. The high temperature warms up the body, which starts producing sweat as a self-defence measure from the heat. Sweating promotes the elimination of toxins and uric acid, fostering renal activity and hydration of the upper respiratory tract.
EMOTIONAL SHOWER
An emotional shower is a mini session of well being which unites the benefits of hot and cold water with those perfumed with essences.
The emotional shower is an area which allows you to enjoy unique sensations and soft strokes.
Pushing the button you can start the show where you are the centre of attention. Enjoy strong Nordic emotions, surrounded by intense ice blue lighting and a fresh mint perfume which reinvigorates your body and spirit.
Continue to be pampered by a tropical rainfall with a sunset atmosphere and al the sensuousness which are wrapped up in tropical fruit.
There is nothing better after a sauna than to immerge oneself under the rainfall of water enriched by aromatic and luminous sensations which at the same time relax and give a new life to your body and mind.
SAUNA
A Finnish sauna is a type of sauna that harnesses the power of dry heat. Unlike steam rooms, also known as wet saunas, moisture and steam are kept at low levels in a Finnish sauna. In fact, the humidity is typically kept around 5-20% and the temperature is set around 80-100ºC.
This is what sets the Finnish sauna apart from other baths and saunas like the:
Tropical bath: temperatures average 50-75ºC with an ambient humidity of roughly 20-40%.
Biosauna: it has an average temperature of about 50-60 ºC and a humidity level of about 45-65%.
Russian sauna: temperatures are a bit higher, ranging between 60-90ºC, with humidity levels around 60-70%.
Steam bath: here, temperatures usually reach 40-50ºC, although the humidity beats the rest and is set at 100%.
JACUZZI WITH WATERFALL
With hydromassage the tissues and muscles are stimulated with an immediate draining effect. It helps to fight water retention because the toning massage of the water on the skin allows you to firm your legs, buttocks, arms and stomach.
MASSAGGES AREA
Holistic massages use the idea that all of our body parts are intrinsically connected, and that the health of one part of the body can be benefitted from overall health in the rest of the body. Therefore, holistic massages don’t just focus on one part of our body. For example, if you have a problem with your knee, a holistic massage will help the overall health of your entire body.
Holistic massages use various strokes and methods to benefit the entire body. Your masseuse may also use aromatherapy and other oils to enhance the therapy experience.
