A new steam bath cabin with a mineral infusion system marks a first in spa history, according to supplier Inviion.
The ‘Mineral Room’ has been installed at the Aqua Sana spa at the Woburn Forest Center Parcs holiday village. At intervals of eight minutes, a range of health-enhancing minerals and trace elements are alternately infused into the health bath cabin, which operates at a radiant heat of about 45°C and maximum steam.
Among the minerals, magnesium supports the recovery and stabilisation of skin, hair and respiratory organs, iodine selenium helps strengthen the immune system, and lithium – also known as the ‘good mood salt’ – helps relieve stress and recovers vitality. Each injection sequence is accompanied by light and aroma therapy programmes.
The cabin works on the principle that the steam opens the pores of the skin, with the mineral salts then entering them gently to create a recharging and relaxing experience.
Eight people can be seated in the Mineral Cabin at one time, with ergonomic recliners providing additional comfort. The cabin forms part of the Mineral & Gemstone Spa at Woburn Forest – one of six spas at the complex, with each featuring a different wellness approach. In total, the Aqua Sana spa includes 25 multi-sensory, hydrothermal experiences.
The Woburn Forest Center Parcs opens in the UK on 6 June 2014.
