Experience the invigorating effect of this ancient remedy with our honey treatments. According to mythology, the gods owe their immortality to honey. Does it really confer eternal youth? After all, its beneficial effects are undisputed. The healing effect of honey applications is partly due to the enzymes it contains, which are produced by bees. There are also numerous other substances that have a positive effect on the body.
Sweet & Salty. This stimulating exfoliating care combination of honey, oil and salt cleanses, revitalizes and refines the skin's pores. The salt crystals gently remove dead skin cells and draw water from the skin. The active ingredients in honey can penetrate deep into the skin and develop their numerous positive effects in the long term.
Purification of the body. This honey treatment has a cleansing and soothing effect on the skin and the entire body. A honey-ginger oil is applied to the skin as a base before the actual massage honey. The warm honey-oil mixture is massaged in using a special tapping massage technique. Above all, it stimulates the metabolism. This helps to purify and detoxify the tissue. The vitamins and minerals contained in honey and oil also strengthen the immune system.
As if reborn. Experience a cleansing honey and oil massage followed by a nourishing honey and thyme wrap in a warm waterbed. The honey massage purifies and detoxifies the skin and body. The honey and thyme wrap nourishes the skin and pampers you with the Mediterranean fragrance of essential oils. This unique combination relieves tension in muscles and tissue. It frees the thoughts and gives the body a completely new feeling of purity.
The honey for our honey treatments is all-natural and 100% made in Germany. However, it does not come directly from a beekeeper, but from the Pino company. The family business was founded in the Black Forest in 1904. Here, using natural essential oils, high-quality health products and herbal medicines were initially developed for the European spa and health resort industry. Today, Pino is the leading provider of physiotherapy products and treatment concepts in Germany.
Nevertheless, you don’t have to do without delicious Black Forest honey. We will be happy to serve you a bowl at the bar or in the restaurant.
Good to know: There are virtually no contraindications for honey applications. In German: You can always enjoy a honey massage or a honey peeling. You should only refrain from doing this shortly after an operation.
Honey massages are among the oldest applications of honey and have been used in many cultures since ancient times. They can have several effects, which vary in intensity depending on the variant, e.g. purifying and detoxifying the body, relieving tension, strengthening the immune system and calming the mind.
On the one hand, the over 100 different ingredients in honey have an effect, especially enzymes, vitamins, minerals, fructose and free amino acids. On the other hand, the type of application also contributes to the desired result. Just applying the warm, liquid honey to the skin triggers a wonderful feeling of comfort.
However, we use special massage techniques so that the honey’s ingredients can develop their full effect. The pores open and the honey can penetrate into the deeper layers of the skin. Targeted massage strokes now ensure thorough distribution and additional stimulation of deeper tissue layers. They promote blood circulation, stimulate the metabolism, promote purification and detoxification and relieve tension. We reinforce this tension-relieving effect with heat carriers in the back area.
Of course, honey is a balm for beauty and well-being in both honey massages and honey scrubs:
The honey massage is a good moisturizer for the skin with long-lasting effects.
It also cleanses the skin thanks to its natural exfoliating effect.
The honey massage is also a real source of warmth. We reinforce this effect with ginger oil and heat carriers, which are then applied to the massaged areas. Afterwards, you feel a deep warmth flowing through you that lingers for a long time. Just the thing for cold winter days.
Our tip: Avoid showering afterwards and rest for a while. This allows the active ingredients to develop better. A subsequent sauna session dissolves the remaining honey particles and gives the skin an additional silky shine and moisture for a longer period of time.
Additional ingredients are added to the honey for our honey massages. For example, a soft wax prevents adhesions, e.g. on very hairy skin. Many men in particular appreciate this.
Cosmetic safety is generally important for all honey applications. The honey must therefore be chemically uncontaminated.
The honey must be cold extracted. This means that it was extracted from the honeycomb purely mechanically and without heating. This is the only way to preserve the majority of the valuable active ingredients.
To ensure that all three criteria are met, we have our honeys tested by independent laboratories ourselves. Or we source them from companies that can provide evidence of such testing.
