Restorative Retreat

Traditional therapies complement new-age wellness.

By Chelle Koster Walton

There was a time when watsu, hot stones, hydrotherapy, shiatsu, couples massage, organic, dermabrasion, and Pilates were all the rage on the wellness circuit. These days, people all over the world, not just in Naples, are talking about halotherapy, salt flotation, cryotherapy, resonance, sensory deprivation, hair Botox, and CBD.

The Spa at Naples Grande embraces all — traditional treatments and therapies along with the newest technological advancements. This approach keeps its simplicity while expanding to new levels of scientific complexity. It addresses modern-day issues such as sleep deprivation, stress, anxiety, and our nation’s aging population. It crosses the global wellness landscape, incorporating rituals from Sweden, Fiji, the Dead Sea, Thailand, and other Asian places known for their enlightened approach to health.

You won’t need to stray from your wellness routine at home; you can take it to a new level. Relax with a boost of vitamin D from the beach, swim laps in the Hibiscus Hideaway pool, play tennis at the 15-court complex, do Zumba or spinning at the resort, or work out with a private training session in the fitness center. By the time you head home, you’ll feel your best.

Prepare for your spa appointment with a calming stroll on the estuary boardwalk to the beach.

The spa complex complements your exercise routine, leading the way to muscle recovery. Prepare for your spa appointment with a calming stroll on the estuary boardwalk to the beach, take a centered meditation walk around the outdoor circular labyrinth, or soak in the whirlpool tub. Water features and spa areas, both indoors and out, are naturally calming; and there’s even a meditation room stocked with herbal teas, fruit smoothies, and other healthy treats. Now you’re in the proper Zen state for cooperative mind-body healing.

Spa packages like Muscle Recovery and Anxiety & Stress Relief aim to cure specific ailments, while the Discreet Indulgence package purely pampers. Book the Spa Villa to concentrate your stay totally on your well-being.

Have a certain self-improvement goal in mind? The Spa at Naples Grande’s newest therapies help you focus with technical precision. The Cryo Body Slimming treatment uses the deep chill of cryotherapy (as cold as 275 degrees below zero) to destroy fat cells, stimulate metabolism, erase cellulite, and decelerate aging. Local Cryotherapy technology is also used for toning and lifting the skin on the neck and face. The WholeBody Cryotherapy has been proven to bolster immunity and improve circulation.

The groundbreaking VibroAcoustic, ElectroMagnetic, and Infrared treatments combine sound resonance with full-body vibrations, natural earth frequencies, and infrared light to induce a deep meditative state throughout the body, mind, and spirit. Infrared targets inflammation issues, most successfully in a specially designed sauna. Good vibrations destress with the Eastern-inspired Singing Bowls Therapy for a deeply relaxing massage.

If you’re simply looking for a good massage or body wrap to get your vacation relaxation going, Naples Grande has just the thing. The Swe-Thai massage, CBD manicure, and Signature Muscle Melt Massage (using hot stones and aromas to calm and soothe body and mind) are just a few of the signature twists on the spa’s menu of traditional and Eastern therapies that are sure to leave you feeling relaxed and rejuvenated.

No matter your wellness path, we guarantee that your stay at Naples Grande will be rejuvenating and restorative.

SPA OF THE FUTURE, TODAY

Naples Grande’s newest spa treatments put you in control and contact-free.

Imagine a spa treatment you control, free of tactile contact and founded on principles like neuroscience, microcirculation, thermotherapy, bipolar radiofrequency, semiconducting cooling, Infrared Sauna, and Singing Bowls Therapy. Scientific jargon and gimmicks aside, The Spa at Naples Grande achieves its groundbreaking self-guided therapies, which translate to deep relaxation, fatcell destruction, improved circulation, and lifting and firming of the skin.

The only spa in the Southwest Florida area to provide touchless spa services, Naples Grande last winter introduced three new treatment systems — called NuCalm (can be done anywhere that makes you comfortable), Avacen, and Cryolift Pro Machine — to complement its already technically forward menu of therapies.

The world’s first neuroscience technology app, NuCalm, allows guests to enjoy relaxation therapy at the spa or on their own in their guest room or poolside. By mimicking the body’s natural progression of slowing the brain to sleep, it leaves guests feeling centered, present, and in control.

Avacen puts full-body muscle relaxation in the palm of your hands. The device applies thermotherapy and negative pressure to the palm, eliminating toxins, improving circulation, and deep cleansing the immune system to reduce aging. Although the Cryolift treatments require an aesthetician, they forgo direct physical contact. The noninvasive shaping device focuses on pulsed ultrasound — combined with cavitation, bipolar radiofrequency, and semiconducting cooling technology — to destroy fat cells instantly and without pain, leaving you feeling and looking younger.
