Olive oil has always accompanied Mediterranean cultures in their daily lives as an invigorating, hydrating, and reparative balm, as well as an essential ingredient in their diet. With this ritual you will be transported to the olive groves of the south of Spain through an exfoliation with ground olive pits, a massage with Olive Essence oil, and a facial mask with ecologic extra virgin olive oil, witch hazel, and ivy.
Discover all that the Mediterranean olive oil can do for you and for your skin to nourish it while your mind is transported to the olive groves of Andalucía.
The Olive Essence Ritual includes a Thermal tour through baths at different temperatures including the Caldarium (Hot Bath 102ºF), the Frigidarium (Cold Bath 57ºF and Ice Bath 50ºF), the Tepidarium (Warm Bath 97ºF), the Balneum (Bath of a Thousand Jets), the Vaporium (A steam Room with aromatherapy) and the Flotarium (Salt Water Bath).
A 90 minute ritual including a 30 min. full-body exfoliation with aground olive pit scrub, performed on a bed of warm marble, and a relaxing 60 min. massage with Olive Essence massage oil by Castillo de Tabernas*, in which we work the entire body: legs, abdomen, arms, back, and cranium. During this time, we apply a purifying facial mask with ecologic extra virgin olive oil, witch hazel, and ivy.
Finally, an infusion of olive leaves with hints of apple, raisins, cranberry, calendula, peach, and cardamom, all organically grown.

Body and mind benefits:
The massage oil Olive Essence by Castillo de Tabernas contains 85 % special extra virgin olive oil from the olives grown in the desert of Tabernas (Almeria). The rest of its bioactive components also come from the olive tree and the olive, offering anti-aging, whitening, antioxidant, and hydrating effects. The facial mask contains anti-seborrheic active ingredients that clean, refresh and unclog the skin without leaving it feeling tight. It renews the cutis, leaving you with a pleasant feeling of freshness and purification.
This ritual, in addition to offering an experience of pure well-being, helps to protect the skin from free radicals, promotes elasticity and improves blood circulation.
Tips and recommendations:
During the thermal tour, listen to your body to know when you should change from one bath to another of a different temperature. Remember that at any time you can access the relaxation room, where cold water and our special selection of AIRE Tea to keep you hydrated are always at your disposal. Before beginning the ritual, we recommend you spend two or three minutes in the Vaporium or steam bath to help open your pores so that the exfoliation is more effective. If at any point during your massage you feel that the pressure is too intense or too light, please, tell your therapist.
