For many of us, November and December are the most challenging months of the year. Especially this year, when we have an unpredictable virus to contend with as well as the late autumn chill and darkness, turning our routines upside down once again.
How to regain balance during these stressful days?
Right in the heart of Riga’s city centre, at 7 Kalķu Street in the Old Town, an enchanting oasis awaits, where the warm welcome of the owners and the time you spend there will make you momentarily forget the outside world — of course, we’re talking about the Elien SPA Beauty and Health Studio. As this hectic and stressful year comes to a close, there's no better way to regain your vitality and mental balance than letting yourself be pampered by a skilled massage and spa therapist.
Vladimir and Vija, the founders of Elien SPA, believe that it is precisely the masterful skills of a specialist that make all the difference. While they admit they’re not magicians, they have put great love and care into their work for 30 years and have repeatedly witnessed the truly miraculous changes in the lives of people who have consciously made self-care a priority.
Since opening its doors seven years ago, the cosy massage and SPA salon in Old Riga has become quite popular with both local residents and visitors. People from all over the world have spent blissful hours here. Latvian celebrities Markus Riva, Ieva Adams, Roberto Meloni, Vita Balčunaite and other regular clients have also frequently shown their appreciation of Elien SPA’s specialists on social media.
Which type of massage would be best for me?
Sometimes, you might feel unwell and experience constant anxiety with no apparent medical cause. That’s the best time to surrender yourself into the caring hands of a masseuse. The most recommended massage course at Elien SPA is individually tailored to each client and leaves them feeling rejuvenated and content.
Classic massage is one of the most popular and effective types of massage, recommended for men and women alike. It restores your energy and vitality while helping with cramps and hypertonus.
If you lead a sedentary lifestyle (as do approximately 1 billion people on Earth), aren't on friendly terms with sports or yoga, and your back is starting to remind you about it — hurry and get a back massage!
Do you suffer with prolonged stress and psychological pressure, sleep poorly, feel tired in the mornings and function less effectively? Are you constantly affected by apathy and anxiety? This vicious circle can be broken by an anti-stress massage.
A sports massage is perfect for those who are ready to test their stamina, as it is the strongest type of massage. Tailored for active athletes who regularly take part in competitions, run long distances or purposefully build muscle mass through strength training. Helps manage post-workout aches.
Swedish massage also helps to relieve muscle pain and inflammation, and the contrasting force and gentleness of the technique make it highly effective.
If you feel anxious often, suffer with a weak immune system and are too absorbed in the flow of information from your smart devices, a relaxing aroma massage will help restore your natural balance.
We shouldn't forget about our feet either — they perform a colossal job moving us around every day, so they deserve regular "maintenance". Elien SPA offers you the chance to pamper your hardworking limbs with a special Thai foot massage or spa treatments — fragrant salt baths with essential oils and nourishing, regenerating masks.
SPA treatments are the best gift for yourself and your loved ones
Many of us look forward to Christmas not only with joy, but also with a tinge of dread at the thought of another hectic shopping spree, the bustle of crowded shops, the worry of finding the right presents, now compounded by an increased risk of infection.
Make a change this year! A day at the SPA is like a little holiday — give one as a gift to your loved ones!
Elien SPA offers a wide range of treatments to suit all tastes — chocolate or honey massages for those with a sweet tooth, coffee body scrubs, Abhyanga massage for the Ayurveda-inspired, or Latvian buckwheat massage for those who value the wisdom of our ancestors, treatments for tired feet and a glowing complexion — there are many to choose from! And most importantly — don't forget to treat yourself as well!
