Wellness & massages

Want to relax during your stay in Reunion Island? Hôtel Select offers a choice of wellness massages using organic oils, to be booked with our reception team.

Balinese massage

Balinese massage at Hôtel Select, Saint-Denis

Gentle yet invigorating, this ancestral massage is both global — relaxing the whole body with long, deep strokes — and precise, with kneading, percussion, pressure and friction using the thumbs, hands and forearms, as well as stretches to relax and energise every part of the body.

Benefits of the Balinese massage with organic sesame oil:

  • Harmony between body and mind (invigorating and relaxing effect).
  • Relief from muscle aches (ideal for athletes).
  • Renewed energy thanks to better energy flow.
  • Elimination of toxins and stimulation of blood and lymphatic circulation.
  • Relief from the feeling of heavy legs after standing for long periods.

Duration 1h15 — €50

Tahitian massage

Tahitian massage at Hôtel Select, Saint-Denis

Slow and gentle, this Asian-influenced massage is both relaxing and energising. It focuses on releasing tension and knots in the back and on balancing the “chi” (vital energy). Deep pressure from the thumbs, hands and forearms, combined with kneading and smoothing, brings complete relaxation.

Benefits of the Tahitian massage with organic coconut oil:

  • Energy rebalancing.
  • Relief from lower-back pain, discomfort from sitting and migraines.
  • Deep relaxation for people prone to stress and overwork.
  • Improved skin tone and softer skin.

Duration 1h15 — €50

Polynesian massage with body scrub

Polynesian massage with body scrub at Hôtel Select, Saint-Denis

The scrub removes dead skin cells so that the skin can breathe and renew itself naturally. Organic coconut oil and coconut pulp refine and soften your skin, while organic vanilla powder from Reunion Island gently exfoliates the face.

The treatment has three stages: application of organic coconut oil; application of the organic coconut-pulp and Reunion vanilla scrub with a slow, meticulous circular technique; rinsing and drying with a Tahitian pareo.

  • Removal of dead skin cells.
  • Finer skin texture with the natural scent of coconut and vanilla.
  • Complete relaxation and a pleasant feeling of physical and mental well-being.

Duration 1h15 — €50

Japanese facial massage (anti-ageing)

Japanese anti-ageing facial massage at Hôtel Select, Saint-Denis

This complete facial massage has three stages: stretching, kneading and cleansing with organic floral water; an anti-wrinkle massage of each side of the face, neck and nape with organic cornflower-water compresses on the eyes; then acupressure and stimulation of the facial meridians with organic avocado oil and Atlas cedar essential oil, including a full scalp massage.

  • Brighter complexion, softened wrinkles and a visible “lifting” effect.
  • Increased elasticity and stimulated micro-circulation.
  • Release of tension and better energy flow through acupressure.
  • Deep, immediate relaxation — ideal for people suffering from headaches.
