It was like stepping out of a cold Canadian winter into an African rain forest…
Recently I spent four blissful hours at Enza Natural Health Spa in the middle of a very hectic week. It was time to “turn myself in” and allow the experts to de-stress and re-energize me.
Having chosen the “Lion Package”, my experience began with the donning of a plush African-themed bathrobe and the opportunity to warm up in the infrared dry heat sauna.
This was my first experience with a hot stone massage. It was both relaxing and reinvigorating. In a softly lit room, my South African therapist, Jenna, performed her healing magic to the enchanting strains of Chopin’s Nocturne and Ravel’s Bolero, the calming sound of water lapping against a distant shore, the occasional chatter of tropical birds.
I was being tansported to a place far, far away… when Spa Owner Judith Elaine began a hot oil scalp and shoulder massage, with an application of shea butter providing much needed nourishment to skin and hair.
In addition to being passionate about health and healing, Judith is an artist and her original paintings of South African flora and fauna adorn the tea room where I floated in, after my treatment, to enjoy several cups of hot South African rooibos tea and taro cookies.
I enjoyed my conversation in the tea room with Judith and the chance to find out more about her, her life in South Africa and how she brings so much of the wisdom and natural healing philosophy from that continent to people here. Enza is the only south African spa in Canada.
How much did this calming oasis and respite from the rigours of daily life cost me? A very reasonable price. Next time I will try the “Giraffe Package” which includes a facial.
