For a good spa experience you need a relaxing ambiance and a skilled therapist. For an exceptional spa day, you should feel pampered from head to toe, inside and out. Talise Spa at Jumeirah Messilah Beach Hotel & Spa goes beyond the exceptional and gives every customer an extraordinary experience.

The Talise Spa is a journey of inner and outer well-being with 17 treatment rooms, 2 couples suites and a diverse mix of treatments from around the world. Therapists focus on relaxing all the senses during any treatment. They start with calming music and a candle-lit room. A bowl of eucalyptus and jasmine flowers is placed on the floor under the massage headrest. The calming mix relaxes the back muscles as the therapist works out knots from day-to-day stress.

There’s a treatment for everyone at the spa. You can never go wrong with the long strokes of a Swedish massage. After a long flight home, you may want to try the Jet Lag Recovery treatment, a Dead Sea salt scrub that emits negative ions when warmed to restore your inner bio magnetic energy fields and get your biological clock back on track. Athletes may want to try the 50-minute sports massage that applies massage and stretching techniques to help your muscles quickly recover and prevent future injuries.

In order to get the full experience at the spa, you need to make sure you clear your schedule for at least half the day. Beyond the treatment, the facility uses a wide range of self-treatments that help enhance the entire experience. Once your appointment is complete a personal consultant will direct you to the lounge where you are free to indulge in herbal teas and refreshing drinks. Guests are encouraged to experience the Color Therapy room, and lounge in a dim room with an array of colors to replace negative energies with a positive flow.

The facility also boasts of its water-based therapies that can be found in the breathing room. Indulge for a few moments on the heated beds. Rework your muscles in the hydraulic pool’s ergonomic chair and strong jet streams. Go beyond the everyday sauna experience with their eucalyptus infused room that calms your mind while releasing toxins from your body. Open your pores and give your skin the moisture that it needs in the steam room, to clean out any of the everyday pollutants your skin has to battle. Finish your experience off with two minutes under the ice fountain, an ice cold room made from snow that closes your pores back up, to make sure your glow lasts for as long as possible. Finally, enjoy a massage shower with your choice of strawberry or mint infusion brought on with a push of a button.

But, the spa’s crowning glory is the Solarium. The first of its kind in the Middle East, the solarium is a room made completely out of Himalayan pure crystal salt, compressed over 250 million years. After relaxing for 30 minutes on one of the waterbeds in the room, your breathing should be easier, skin softer and that sniffle you’ve had all day? Gone. Doctors say that sitting in a salt room for longer periods draws water into airways, thins mucus and improves the function of cilia, or small hairs that help move mucus out of the lungs.

At the end of your spa experience, as you remove the plush soft robe consider giving your body a jump start at their exclusive gym, or enjoy a healthy meal at the spa’s café Aqua. However you choose to end your experience at Talise Spa, you are bound to walk out with a spring in your step and a healthy glow to your smile.
