Crystal Spa & Lounge offers a multi-sensory and energising client experience
The importance of polysensoric stimulation of all sensory organs (sight, hearing, touch, smell and taste) was considered when designing Crystal Spa & Lounge, and much attention was given to the energy and aesthetics of the place, the selection of spa products for professional and homecare use and the inclusion of nutritional foods on the menu.
The spa aims to achieve unique health effects by channelling technologies used by ancient civilisations such as the Egyptians in the construction of temples and pyramids. These methods improved the energy of the area where Crystal Spa & Lounge is located, while neutralising the city’s flows of negative energy. Each room in the spa has been designed to be a natural source of energy that positively affects a person and increases their vitality. That is why all the procedures conducted at the spa, and the beauty products used, are associated with energy and health effects.
Contrasting with, but complementing, the ancient technologies, modern and complex engineering systems were also installed at Crystal Spa & Lounge. These include: air ionisation in all rooms, three-stage water purification and magnetic treatment; and sound quality provided by high-end acoustic equipment.
Spa rooms and a common area are equipped with subwoofers for bass reproduction and audio receivers to increase the sound wave range.
The background music for spa services is selected according to the purpose of the treatment and the customer’s needs: whether they want to relax after work- or home-related stress; or stimulate their powers and energy, while harmonising themselves in the life stream and developing their creative potential.
When alpha waves are prevailing, full relaxation of both the body and mind takes place – you can distract yourself from all your problems and completely eliminate nervous tension and stress. The intensity of thinking processes in the brain declines and the sensorium clears. At such moments you are able to think creatively and generate new ideas.
Increasing the beta rhythm improves social skills and intelligence while concentrating attention. Researchers have found that people with an above-average IQ have increased beta wave production. This is not surprising, as these waves activate brain work and improve understanding of the information being studied. Beta stimulation relieves feelings of tiredness.
The theta rhythm brings our bodies into a state of deep relaxation during which we dream. These waves represent a thin border between the conscious and the subconscious. Under the influence of these waves, our bodies restore themselves, and our physical and mental condition improves. Because of the deep relaxation achieved, our bodies are able to recover quickly after heavy physical activity.
