A day at the Wellness
Caldea
We used modules "Relaxation
B" and "Escape N" as an example, with entrance time at 10:30. You may
start your programme any day at 09:00, 10:30, 12:00, 13:30, 15:00 or at 16:30.
Every module lasts 5 hours. In other words, 1 module = 1 day.
Advantages of being
at the Wellness :
A day at the Wellness lasts 5 hours,
whereas a simple Main Spa entrance is for 3 hours only. In order to
guarantee a relaxing atmosphere, Caldea accept only up to 25 persons at the
Wellness whereas the Main Spa can hold up to 500 persons! The daily rental
of a bathrobe, a towel and sandals is included in the price which is not
the case with a Main Spa entrance. You also have a free non alcoholic
drink at the Wellness Bar every day. You have access to all of the installations
of the Main Spa but persons with only a Main Spa entrance cannot go to the
Wellness. This means that you can "retreat" to the Wellness area when the Main
Spa gets crowded.
How does one go to
the Wellness?
In order to go to the Wellness,
you must either reserve a module (Relaxation, Beauty
or Escape) or make up your own programme
with at least one treatment per day. Another person may accompany you
without treatments (see Wellness Companions). This
is useful if you have youngsters or a husband that wants to come along
but that is not interested in any of the treatments.
The Module (A,B C...) and
the entrance time must be chosen when making the reservation. The schedule
for the following days will be established upon arrival. As each module
represents one day (5 hours), you can make programme for up to 15 days without
repeating a single one!
How will your day at
the Wellness be spent?
- 10:30 Arrival
at the reception of the Wellness (upper floor). After a short meeting with
the person that will be responsible for your programme, you will receive
your bathrobe, your towel and your sandals. You can then proceed to
the changing rooms and lock your clothes in a private locker. Once
changed and showered, you can enter the magical world of Caldea, to forget
your problems and stress and ready to dedicate 5 hours to yourself only.
- 10:45 Guided
visit of the installations. This is the moment to ask any questions
you may have, such as on how to use the sauna for example. If, later
on, you still have some questions, please ask a member of the personnel who
are there to help you.
- 11:00 Now
you can start to profit from all of Caldea's installations. As you are a
client of the Wellness, you also have access to all of the installations of the
Main Spa. Go down the stairs or take the lift and enter the 600m2 lagoon.
The sensation of being in such wonderful surroundings is incredible.
Your body will feel lighter and you'll find the pleasant warmth of the water
(32º) very relaxing. Discover the lagoon, preparing your mind
and body for the treatments to come.
|
|
- 11:30 "Rendez-vous"
at the Wellness bar where you will be met by a masseur (or masseuse). He
will show you to a private cabin where you will receive your first treatment,
a 45 minute massage with Bach Flowers. You may chose the flower of
your preference, depending on your mood and the desired effect.
|
|
- 12:15 We
recommend relaxing for about 10 minutes after each treatment in order to
prolong the pleasant effect. Why not do so on the warm marble slates.
|
|
- 12:30 Get your
blood circulating again by taking a refreshing shower, a visit to the grapefruit
pool or the Aztecian bath.
|
|
- 13:00 If
you are feeling a bit hungry (or thirsty), you can go to the Oasis restaurant
in your bathrobe. Menus from 10,00 Euros. The Oasis also offers
a pleasant view of the interior lagoon.
- 14:00 After
a light meal, why not relax under the infra-red lamps? They do not
tan but give off a pleasant heat. You may also go and discover the
relaxation room with "Wood" lights. The negative ions will make you
feel fresh and rested. If you prefer a siesta, we recommend the warm
water beds at the Wellness. More than one client has been found peacefully
sleeping there for over an hour.
- 15:00 Back
to the Wellness bar for your reflexo foot massage. All vital organs are reflected on the soles
of the feet. The reflexo foot massage is an ancient Chinese technique
whereby pressure is applied to specific areas of the sole of the foot which
rebalances the energy zones of the body, improving one's mental and physical
state. Although a little painful at times, the end result is very pleasing
indeed.
- 15:20 Now
that you've been "rebalanced" and "re-energised" and that you are at peace
with yourself, sink into one of the 2 jacuzzis found on the terrace at the
Wellness. These Jacuzzis are rarely crowded and welcome you day or night,
summer, winter or fall for a relaxing 10 minutes outside.
|
|
- 15:50 A drink
will be waiting for you at the Wellness Bar. You will also find international
press, magazines and the "Diari d'Andorra".
|
|
- 16:05 It
is time to think of departing. You will find gel and shampoo in the
showers and a hair dryer in the changing rooms.
- 16:30 Remove
your clothes from the locker, not forgetting the magnetic card. Change
back into your clothes and leave your bathrobe etc. at the reception. You
will receive clean and fresh set the following day.
| The next day will
be spent in a similar fashion. You can discover other installations
at the Wellness or in the Main Spa downstairs and you will receive the treatments
according to the module you chose. In this case, a general mud application,
a light massage and an underwater massage. |
|
You have surely noticed that
5 hours pass very quickly indeed. Still, we recommend not racing from one
installation to the next. Use some the first day and others the next.
You are supposed to relax at Caldea, not to accelerate! If you chose
to eat at the Oasis restaurant, you get an extra hour for free.
