Reflexology walk at Polynesian Spa

March 15, 2023

Polynesian Spa has added to its wellness rituals with a reflexology walk offering guests even greater access to relaxation and recovery for increased energy levels and healthier immune systems.

Reflexology originates from ancient healing practices and incorporates the body’s pressure points to encourage health and healing. Both reflexology and hydrotherapy are proven to have significant health benefits, such as sports and injury recovery, easing arthritis pain, and increasing energy levels and immunity.

Reflexology is an ancient healing art that applies pressure to specific areas of the feet referred to as reflexes. By walking on the stones along the reflexology walk in bare feet, it stimulates pressure points that correspond to all major body organs and areas – encouraging vital energy and blood flow throughout the body, relieving stress, improving balance and enhancing physical and mental wellbeing.

The Polynesian Spa’s reflexology walk has ankle-deep alkaline mineral water running over the stones to keep feet muscles warm and relaxed. The alkaline water from the Rachel Spring features the antiseptic action of sodium silicate which also nourishes the skin and nails. The lake-side walk overlooks the sulphur Bay Wildlife Reserve in the Pavilion Adult Pools area of the complex.
