nspired by traditional Asian
healing philosophies, Banyan Tree
Spa at Vabbinfaru in Maldives is
a breath of fresh air. Facing the Indian
Ocean, the spa is an oasis of wellness.
The well-trained therapists here work
their magic via a range of spa treatments
developed based on traditional Asian
healing philosophies. If you yearn
for relaxation, opt for ‘Royal Banyan’
treatment – a no-oil Thai acupressure
massage, which is followed by a warm
application of sesame oil using Royal
Banyan herbal pouches filled with
lemongrass, cloves and coriander. You
could also try the ‘Royal Vabbinfaru’,
a deep-tissue massage that involves a
series of strokes and strong pressure
to ease tired muscles and joints. This
is followed by a red-rice purifier and
a rich avocado nourisher.
