Shells that give the ritual its character.

Smooth shells, a warm touch

The therapist holds the shells in their palms and guides them with oil in long, connected movements. The smooth surface and slow rhythm give the massage a rounded, flowing feel, while pressure follows the agreed treatment area.

The original ritual also offers the possibility of cooled shells. If you enjoy a contrast between warmth and freshness, ask whether this option is available for your visit. The temperature should always feel comfortable.

A ritual for a special pause

Oil helps the shells glide and adds to the feeling of cared-for skin. Depending on your preferences, attention can be given to the body and finish with the back, neck and shoulders. Warmth, fragrance and touch shape the experience without hurry.

Lava shells may suit you when you want a more luxurious wellness ritual or a different sensation from a traditional massage. Relaxation is personal; stronger pressure is not a measure of how much you should enjoy it.
