    • Virginie Guillemet
    • & Anne-Sophie Dufeutrelle and her team

    You will receive your massages in your lodge – either on the terrace or in your room, as you please, in order to enjoy the sounds of the forest and the essential oils naturally released by the trees that surround your lodge.

    All our massages incorporate natural elements from trees, plants, flowers or even essences from our forest, starting with our exclusive massage oil, based on essential oils. An energy boost, an inner journey, a sensory experience to help you reconnect with your body, and yourself.

     

    Our wellness offer is accessible to all: our bee lodge welcomes you for a unique moment of relaxation at the edge of the forest, in the heart of our vegetable garden.

Shiatsu

 

A product of traditional Chinese medicine, shiatsu is a clothed massage on a futon or a table, which acts on meridians and the circulation of energy through pressure and stretches.

Energetic Care

 

Hand application

Cranial reflexology

Vibratory treatment

 

The energetic treatment by apposition of the hands makes it possible to improve the circulation of energy and to harmonize our energy centres and the flow of the meridians. By encouraging relaxation, the treatment helps to dissolve blockages, refocus the subtle bodies and eliminate used energy. The treatment ends with a sound bath with the Tibetan bowl.
