Is a 2-hour spa treatment worth it?

Absolutely. A 2-hour spa treatment provides comprehensive relaxation and therapeutic benefits that shorter sessions cannot achieve.

At Stephanies® Luxury Spas, our extended treatments include elements like full-body exfoliation, targeted massage, facial therapy, and relaxation time, delivering transformative results for both body and mind. The investment in a longer treatment means more profound stress relief, improved circulation, better skin health, and a deeper sense of wellbeing that lasts days beyond your visit.

What should I expect at a spa for the first time?

Your first spa experience at Stephanies® will be welcoming and relaxing from the moment you arrive. Upon arrival, you'll complete a brief consultation form about your health, preferences, and treatment goals. Your therapist will review this with you privately before your treatment begins. You'll be shown to a tranquil changing area where you can change into a plush robe and slippers. During your treatment, you'll be professionally draped for privacy and comfort. Your therapist will communicate throughout to ensure your comfort level with pressure and temperature. After your treatment, you'll have time to relax, enjoy refreshments, and ease back into your day. We recommend arriving 15 minutes early for your first visit to complete paperwork and settle in.

What do I wear to a spa treatment?

Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing to and from the spa, as you'll want to feel relaxed before and after your treatment. For the treatment itself, you'll disrobe to your comfort level - most guests undress completely for body treatments and massages, as therapists are trained in professional draping techniques to ensure your privacy and comfort throughout. You'll be provided with a robe and disposable undergarments if needed. For facial treatments, you'll typically remain clothed from the waist down. If you're having a spa manicure or pedicure, wear open-toed shoes or sandals. We provide secure lockers for your belongings, and you can leave jewelry and valuables at home. The most important thing is that you feel comfortable and relaxed.

Everything you need to know about this treatment

Our Arm and Hand Wax treatment involves a gentle waxing process to remove unwanted hair, leaving your skin smooth and refined. We use high-quality wax and techniques to ensure your comfort throughout the treatment.

This treatment is suitable for anyone looking to achieve beautifully smooth arms and hands. It’s ideal for individuals who prioritise their skincare routine and wish to maintain a polished appearance.

To prepare for your Arm and Hand Wax, we recommend exfoliating the area a day prior. This helps to remove dead skin cells and can promote a smoother waxing experience.

After your Arm and Hand Wax, we suggest avoiding direct sunlight and hot showers for at least 24 hours. Applying a soothing moisturiser can also help maintain the softness of your skin.

Results from our Arm and Hand Wax can last anywhere from 3 to 6 weeks, depending on your individual hair growth cycle. Regular treatments can help to maintain your desired smoothness.
