The Palais Rhoul offers a selection of massages drawing on techniques from Asia, the Maghreb and Europe. Treatments are carried out by trained therapists. Residents book on arrival. Outside guests must book in advance via spadakhla.com.
Treatments available year-round
The Swedish massage works deep on muscle tension. It suits guests recovering from physical activity or carrying accumulated stress. The Californian massage is gentler — long effleurage movements, oriented toward relaxation and body rebalancing.
The Oriental massage draws on Maghrebi traditions dating from the 6th century. It alternates pressure, kneading, tapping and gliding across the full body.
The Laotian massage is performed on a Japanese futon. It works the body's energy lines through precise, powerful pressure and full-body stretching, distinct from shiatsu and Chinese acupressure. One hour is the minimum — 1h30 is the recommended duration for full effect. This treatment books up quickly; reserve it on arrival.
The Thai massage combines pressure on meridian points with passive stretching. It draws on Chinese medicine, Ayurvedic practice and yoga traditions. The therapist at the Palais Rhoul is certified by the Wat Pho school in Bangkok.
The Chi Nei Tsang is a 30-minute abdominal massage. It works the fascia and viscera manually, restoring circulation and relieving abdominal tension.
The four-hand massage is performed by two therapists working simultaneously. It suits guests who find it difficult to switch off during a standard session.
The Authentic Massage is a 90-minute treatment in full awareness, performed by Marie — the only therapist offering this treatment at the spa.
Other treatments available: pregnancy massage from the second trimester, slimming massage by manual roll palpation with lemon, cedar or grapefruit essential oils, leg drainage massage, Shiatsu, Ayurvedic massage, Kashmiri massage, Chinese Tui Na, chair Amma massage.
