After all the ups and downs of the year, you deserve some time out with friends to relax and rejuvenate those spirits in preparation for the second half of the year. One of the best ways to enjoy some quality time with friends and really re-energise your life is with a spa treatment. Group spa treatments are a great way to disconnect from the challenges around you, to enjoy some well-deserved pampering, and to connect with friends.

Here are some of our top spa treatments to try with friends.

1. A Rasul Ritual

A fantastic spa treatment with friends is the Rasul Ritual which is a traditional Arabic cleansing ritual that will leave you feeling clean and revitalised, while also affording you time to chat and catch up. This cleansing spa treatment involves covering the body in a thermal, mineral-enriched mud that feeds the skin while the steam room opens the pores for a deep cleanse and for better absorption of the nutrients. Once you’re done, the mud is washed off in a warm shower, leaving your skin feeling silky smooth. This is a particularly good treatment to target that dry winter skin.

2. Hot Stone Treatment

Massages are always a great option if you’re considering a spa treatment with friends. There are so many styles to choose from, including the popular Swedish and deep tissue massages, but the hot stone treatment is a great one to try in the winter months. Hot, volcanic rocks are placed on tension points along your body to ease any muscle tension and help damaged tissue.

3. Aromatherapy Massage

For a sensory experience that your group of friends will love, opt for an aromatherapy massage. Each person in the group can explain what they want from the massage – stress relief, relaxation, tension relief – and the oils can be mixed accordingly.

4. Foot Massage

If you want to be able to drink some bubbles while chatting with your friends, then the best spa treatment to try is a foot massage. This is great for tension reduction and will leave you feeling relaxed without being too invasive. If you have any issues such as corns, bunions, or ingrown toenails, the therapist will work on those as well.

5. Head Massage

Another ‘hands-free’ spa treatment is a head massage, although this is not one to go for if you and your friends have just gone for a salon treatment! The therapist massages warm oil infused with herbs directly into your scalp, strengthening your hair’s roots, encouraging circulation to the head and neck area, and even improving memory.

6. Back, Neck, and Shoulder Massage

If your hair is a no-go area, then you and your friends might want to try a revitalising back, neck, and shoulder massage. This is a great option if you’re a group of work friends who have to work at a desk as tension is often carried in the neck area. These massages are done seated, making them ideal for a group of friends to enjoy together. The benefits include pain and tension relief while also releasing endorphins, improving blood and lymph circulation, and re-energising you.

7. Mani and Pedi’s

One of the most popular group treatments, particularly if there are a lot of you, is a mani-pedi. While having your manis you can sip on bubbles and eat snacks while chatting. This also involves a deep cleanse, massage, and colour for your nails so you’re ready to hit the town after the spa treatment.

8. Facials

An invigorating facial is also a wonderful group spa treatment. There are several options for facial treatment including deep cleansing, anti-ageing, or revitalising, depending on your needs. The facial treatment will start with a purity treatment to clean out clogged pores and remove any makeup, dirt, or residue. Then there will be some essential hydrating and calming treatment and a facial massage.

9. Spa Package

Finally, you could go big and do a spa package group treatment that includes a mixture of your favourite spa treatments. Evolve Day Spa in Boksburg offers some fantastic package specials for groups of friends such as the Half-Day Heaven. This is a welcome drink, Rasul Chamber, full body massage, express facial, mani or pedi, and a spa lunch. There’s also the Catch Up Time for a minimum of 3 people, which includes a glass of bubbly, a luxurious spa pedicure, and a spa lunch.
