Winter is officially here! As the season continues to ramp up, it's easy to focus on others, as well as your never-ending to-do list, but it's also important to set aside some "me time."
And what better way to escape the chill (and seasonal hustle and bustle) than with a pampering, rejuvenating spa session?
Located on the grounds of Parksville's Beach Club Resort, Stonewater Spa is a tranquil retreat. Booking a winter spa treatment promises not just relaxation but a host of wellness benefits that can help beat the winter blues.
WINTER SPA BLISS: A SERENE SANCTUARY
In the winter, finding things to do in Parksville that aren't weather-dependent can be a bit of a challenge. Enter Stonewater Spa—an indoor haven wholly unaffected by the whims of Old Man Winter. There's no need to brave the cold or worry about crowds! The spa offers a peaceful refuge where you can simply unwind and recharge, making it the perfect antidote to the hustle and bustle of this busy season.
THE BENEFITS OF A WINTER SPA TREATMENT
During the winters—because of changes in humidity and temperature—our skin often suffers from extreme dryness. A nourishing spa treatment, designed to hydrate and replenish, is one of the best ways to combat that.
With that said, spa therapies aren't strictly about physical care or indulgence. They're also essential for maintaining your well-being during the colder months (really!). The escape from both crowds and potentially inclement weather means you can fully immerse yourself in the experience. By allowing stress to fully melt away, you'll leave refreshed and revitalized. If you ever wanted a legitimate excuse for a spa day, here it is!
STONEWATER SPA
Tranquility meets indulgence, and even convenience, at Stonewater Spa. Beyond massages, the spa's offerings extend to include a variety of holistic body treatments.
From revitalizing scrubs and nourishing wraps to immune-boosting treatments and body contouring, each service is meticulously designed to transport you to a state of utter bliss. After your treatment, continue relaxing in the spa's lounge, complete with a pool and hot tub overlooking the sea. And if you get hungry while you're here, order lunch from our renowned restaurant.
Stonewater Spa is open to both the public and guests of the Beach Club Resort. If you're in need of a seasonal refresh, whether you're staying at the resort or you're a local, consider booking a winter spa treatment.
MELT AWAY WINTER TENSION WITH A MASSAGE
One of the spa's main services is massage, and Stonewater offers several types. Do you have some aches and pains? Are you simply seeking relaxation? Or do you need a boost in anything from circulation to mental clarity or immunity? A massage may be just the thing.
Hot Stone Massage — 90 minutes
Feel the warmth penetrate your muscles deep down as heated stones ease tension and stiffness, and promote relaxation.
Seaflora CBD Massage — 60–90 minutes
Experience the relaxing and anti-inflammatory properties of CBD with a massage that combines them with the therapeutic benefits of physical touch. Note that this massage is for spa clients aged 19 and older.
Sports Massage — 60–90 minutes
Ideal for particularly active individuals, this massage actually doesn't intend to relax you. Instead, using a variety of fast-paced, vigorous massage techniques, including cross-fiber friction and pressure-point therapy, it targets specific muscle groups to promote flexibility and enhance recovery.
Deep Tissue Massage — 60-90 minutes
For clients seeking a more intense massage to address pain or tension in a specific area, the deep tissue option targets knots and muscle tension.
Swedish Massage — 60–90 minutes
Unlike deep tissue massage, Swedish massage is gentler and aims to relax and rejuvenate. It involves the use of rubbing, tapping, and kneading muscles, exerting pressure at certain points, moving joints, and muscle compressions.
Back Massage — 30 minutes
This classic massage focuses solely on the back, shoulders, and neck, which commonly hold knots and tension. If you want to add a quick winter spa treatment to your Parksville itinerary, this is an excellent option.
Back & Foot Relax Massage — 60–90 minutes
One of Stonewater's most popular massages, combining two common problem areas. Enjoy a deep, kneading back massage to remove knots and reduce tension, as well as an energizing foot rub.
Foot Reflexology Massage — 60 minutes
The feet are directly connected to a surprising number of important functions in the body. Massage therapists focus on the reflex points in the foot to reduce stress, boost energy and mood, and even stimulate the digestive system. Clients can also add on a toenail polish for a nominal fee.
Enhancements - Guests can elevate their massage experience by adding essential oils, Seaflora CBD Healthy Healing Gel, or Sea Silk CBD Massage Oil for an additional fee (note that CBD is only available to those ages 19 and up).
BODY TREATMENTS TO NOURISH AND RENEW
In addition to massage, many Stonewater Spa clients choose to get a body treatment. The myriad options address a wide variety of concerns, from beautification to detoxifying and immunity-boosting.
Lymphatic Drainage Treatment — 75 minutes
Boost your immune system and eliminate toxins with this gentle, rhythmic massage that targets the lymphatic system. Additional benefits include increased energy and significantly reduced fatigue.
Seaflora Organic Seaweed Body Wrap — 90 minutes
This treatment incorporates elements of thalassotherapy, utilizing the benefits and power of seawater. You'll indulge in several steps during your wrap, including a sea salt exfoliation, a seaweed-enriched Kaolin clay mask for detoxifying, a mini facial, and a scalp massage.
Seaflora Pacific Sea Salt Body Scrub — 60 minutes
Revitalize your skin with a rejuvenating scrub that exfoliates with seaweed and sea salt, leaving your skin feeling incredibly smooth and hydrated.
