Why people come back
The small details make the biggest difference
Trained in-house
Every therapist is trained by Por to the same standard, in the same traditional techniques. No agency staff, no shortcuts.
Silent Cards
Pick one up at reception and hand it to your therapist if you’d rather not chat. Your treatment is your time to rest, relax, heal and completely switch off.
Side by side
Private rooms for two mean couples, friends and family can be treated together — then unwind in the lounge over herbal tea.
Authentic products
HARNN body oils from Thailand and ESPA facial products in our packages and facials.
Clean, calm, professional
We put a huge amount of work into making the retreat feel professional, welcoming, clean and a little bit special from the moment you walk through the door.
Look after yourself early
A little maintenance at the right time is much easier than finding an appointment once your body is screaming at you. Please don’t wait until you’re in pain.
Gift vouchers
Give someone two hours where they don't have to think about anything at all
Gift vouchers are available for any treatment or package — a favourite for birthdays, anniversaries and thank-yous. Call or message us and we’ll arrange it.
