New SPA approach at Kurumba Maldives

We all know about the miraculous effect of the sea and sea air on humans. Even a short stay in the sea air saturates our body with various trace elements, such as selenium. This trace element is an excellent antioxidant, it helps protect cells from the development of cancerous tumors. Without selenium, bronchial asthma and allergies can develop, it improves the cardiovascular system and normalizes the thyroid gland. To enhance the effect and extend the valuable time spent outdoors - SPA Hotel Kurumba offers a new procedure - Raalhu Outdoor Treatments.

Raalhu in translation from Divehi (Maldivian language) means a wave. After all, the sea and its gifts have long been the basis of island medicine. A unique procedure combined this knowledge - after all, it begins with scrub sand and coconut crumbs, which carefully cleans and massages the body. The massage table is set in a special gazebo on the pier, in a quiet part of the island, in the west, where you can watch the sun sinking in the ocean. And after sunset - the program "Spa under the stars", which includes body massage from heels to the top of the head using 100% organic cosmetics. The whole procedure is accompanied by the sound of waves and air, with the same selenium, which will be at your complete disposal until the end of the vacation!

SPA under the stars: the new Veli Spa programs at the Kurumba Maldives hotel

The main treasures of the island - sea shells, coconut oil and, in fact, nature itself - were used to develop a new SPA center procedure. The bath ritual called Feyli is held in open pavilions only at sunset. The balneotherapy effect is complemented by a unique Cowrie shell massage, using local smooth sea shells and locally produced coconut oil.

Both ingredients are a truly unique offer to the Maldives. So, the hotel buys coconut oil only on the local island of Fuvahmulah, located on the Nyaviyani Atoll. Here, both men and women work in the production of this product. While the male population of the island collects nuts, women prepare butter using a unique technology known for thousands of years. Coconuts are dried, and only after evaporation of all the liquid, the shell is removed, the pulp is crushed and boiled at a certain temperature. This production allows you to save all the beneficial properties of coconut in oil.

This is the kind of oil used in Veli Spa. The authenticity of the Feyli procedure in no way contradicts its completion: in a cozy relaxation area, arranged under a starry sky, you will be served chilled champagne, melting chocolate and fresh fruit in your mouth. “The new procedure underlines the ongoing commitment of the Kurumba Hotel to offer its guests unique opportunities to touch the culture and traditions of the Maldives. Our team is always looking for ways to develop where the heritage of the island nation meets the experience of modern science,” comments Lee Haguisan, Sales and Marketing Manager.
