Island Time at Pacific Shores

Slow down this summer and make some time for yourself at Pacific Shores. If you get the chance to visit us in person this summer, try a relaxing walk on the beach to immerse yourself in Craig Bay's serene atmosphere.

Here at AquaTerre, it's all about the guys this month with information and targeted treatments Just for Him. (Hint: these treatments make excellent belated Father's Day presents.) We've also got two new treatments designed to enhance your well-being.

Wrapture at AquaTerre

Profiled in a recent issue of Western Canadian Resorts magazine, AquaTerre was featured with other Vancouver Island, "first-class luxury spas" as well as several Rocky Mountain facilities.

The write-up highlights our popular Cleopatra's Wrapture as a "treatment fit for a princess". Read the Spa-Rific article introduction online.

Move Over Ladies

Many spa connoisseurs - from both genders - may think most men aren't really interested in spa-going. But that assumption is totally wrong.

In Canada, 29% of spa-goers are men according to the International Spa Association 2006 Consumer Trends Report.

The same research found that men who frequent spas go as often as women and access many of the same treatments, specifically, full-body massages.

Whether it's a birthday gift, belated Father's Day present, or other special treat, giving the gift of spa to the men in your life may be a bigger hit than you'd think.

Men's Facial
Shaving along with daily damage caused by the environment causes irritation and dehydration of the skin. This treatment is dedicated to the specific needs of a man's skin. This experience begins with a relaxing massage of the back, followed by a self heating mud being applied to the spine which eliminates all traces of tension and stress.

Once complete relaxation has occurred, the face is deeply cleansed and oxygenated. A facial mask is applied, and a scalp massage is give to achieve calmness and balance. To complete this treatment, a soothing moisturizer is applied for hydration.
