Vinotherapy And Lavender Therapy: A New Era Of Wellness At Coquillade Provence
When hearing the word ‘Provence’, most people get associations to purple lavendar fields and vineyards. Combining those and you get a new wellness concept ‘Vinotheraphy and Lavendar Theraphy’. The Domaine’s Female Winemaker, Aurélie Julien, And Female Spa Director, Cécile Gusman, has joined forces to create these new Therapeutic Spa Treatments that harness Biodynamic Viticulture.
In the mid-2000s, the late Andy Rihs, visionary founder of Coquillade Provence and its renowned Domaine (now, Domaine de la Coquillade), embarked on a transformative journey that elevated the estate to new heights. This transformation signalled a profound commitment to excellence in wine production and hospitality.
Vinotherapy: The Power of Grapes in Skincare
The hotel’s 2,000 square metre spa—the largest in the region—promotes the principles of wellness, and now the Domaine’s female Winemaker, Aurélie Julien, and its female Spa Director, Cécile Gusman, have joined forces to create a new offering of therapeutic spa treatments that harness the biodynamic viticulture.
Guests can indulge in grape seed scrubs, which exfoliate and renew the skin with the natural goodness of grape polyphenols. Wine-infused facials use the anti-aging benefits of resveratrol, a powerful antioxidant found in grape skins, to firm and hydrate the skin, leaving it with a youthful glow. Additionally, grape body wraps envelop the body in a nourishing, detoxifying treatment that draws out impurities and enhances skin elasticity. Each treatment is designed not only to pamper but to deliver tangible skincare benefits, making vinotherapy a cornerstone of the spa’s wellness offerings.
Lavender Therapy: Embracing the Calm of Provence
Coquillade Provence has introduced signature treatments infused with locally harvested lavender. Known for its calming and therapeutic properties, lavender has been cherished for centuries in Provence for its ability to soothe the mind and body, and these new treatments continue that tradition of natural wellness.
The lavender signature treatments at Coquillade are designed to immerse guests in the tranquil essence of this iconic flower. Lavender oil massages employ gentle, rhythmic strokes that relax tense muscles and promote deep relaxation, while lavender-infused baths offer a serene escape, allowing guests to unwind in the aromatic warmth of lavender essence. Soothing lavender facials harness the flower’s anti-inflammatory and antiseptic properties, ideal for calming sensitive skin and promoting a clear, radiant complexion.
Award-Winning Spa and World-Class Amenities
As the largest spa in the region, Spa Coquillade is a sanctuary of luxury and wellbeing, spanning 2,000 square metres of carefully designed spaces that harmonise mind, body, and soul. The spa’s extensive facilities include an indoor heated swimming pool, saunas, hammams, steam baths, and sensory showers, all designed to provide a complete sensory experience. Guests can find peace in the indoor and outdoor relaxation areas, take in the serenity of the Provençal gardens, or savor herbal teas in the tranquil tea lounge.
