Cosmic Mandala15: Ear Spa
Besides its regular treatments designed to pamper every part of your body, the wellness spa, Cosmic Mandala15 also offers a one-of-a-kind ear spa. The ear spa comprises a combination of pure wax candles and a gentle soothing ear neck and scalp massage administered by trained therapists. The procedure is relatively simple – basically one end of two hollow bees wax candles are lit. The other is placed close to the ear hole at an angle to allow a few drops of melted wax to enter the ear hole. When the candle is inserted in the ear cannel, it produces sound vibrations which in turn cause a gentle massage of the ear drum. Thus a sense of relaxation is induced simultaneously in both ears. Along with deep relaxation, the Ear Spa has a many health benefits as well. The by-product of the treatment is that it clears the nasal passage, improves your sense of smell, reduces earache, headache, nervousness, blocked sinuses as well as insomnia, leaving you rejuvenated. The team at Cosmic Mandala15 has been specially trained and certified from Wat Po the first Thai Medical School under control of The Ministry of Education, Thailand.

Dermalogica: Face Mapping
Of the belief that your health is written all over your face, the Dermalogica face mapping sessions uses a form of Chinese diagnosis based on the principle that the skin provides an outside view into the body’s internal health. This revolutionary approach to skin analysis developed by The International Dermal Institute exclusively for Dermalogica consists of analysing the skin by dividing it into different zones which not only increases the effectiveness of every treatment, but also makes the prescription of a home care regimen possible. Each zone looks after a particular function. For instance, the top part of your face, zone one and three is regarded as the ‘sister’ to the bladder and digestive system. So if you have a lot if breakouts in this area, it is a sign that you need to have more water and consume whole foods. Zones four and 10 are the ears, and related to the kidneys. If this area turns hot, it’s a sign you need to cut down on caffeine and alcohol. Accordingly, the diagnosis consists of dividing the face into 14 such zones which the therapist does by examining your skin under a magnifying lamp and then suggesting products your skin would require.
