Begin the session under the waterfall - cleansing your body, before immersing in the Te Ahi Tupua- a sequence of hot and colds. Moving onto the Geothermal pool- relax in the water drawn from the Rachel Spring. Moving on immerse your body in a cold plunge- this will loosen your muscles and decrease inflammation. The Wai Whakaoho – will massage your body with the commotion of the jets and water features. The final stage of the restorative journey is the Papatūānuku - the power of the thermal mud which is used to cleanse the body and mind before finishing with Kohu Wai Arik -heated stones allowing you to relax and reflect on the journey you have undertaken.
