The Acqua Spa Women’s Wellness programme can help when the body undergoes hormonal changes, particularly a decrease in the production of estrogen and progesterone, which can lead to various symptoms and discomforts.  By embracing a few simple actions, our female guests can learn to benefit as the body goes through its natural transition.

  • Yoga

    Yoga is offered every Sunday at 7.30 am.  Regular yoga practice with gentle stretches and poses help improve flexibility and stimulate blood circulation and can ease menopause discomfort.

  • Berry Booster

    Acqua Spa's Berry Booster Smoothie is full of strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries which are all rich in antioxidants, vitamins and minerals that can contribute to your overall well-being.

  • Crispy Okra

    Included on our Spa Lunch Menu.  Okra contains minerals like calcium and magnesium and is rich in nutrients and is an excellent source of dietary fiber, which can help regulate digestion.

  • Lite Bites

    Stay refreshed and nourished during your spa experience with our Spa Lite Bite Menu featuring healthy, nutritious dishes and refreshing and hydrating drinks.

FINDING BALANCE AMIDST MENOPAUSE

Menopause is a transformative phase in a woman's life, and it can bring about a range of physical and emotional challenges.

Why the Vagus Nerve Meditative Massage is Ideal for Menopause

  • Stress Reduction - Menopause often comes with increased stress and anxiety. Our Vagus Nerve Meditative Massage activates the body's relaxation response, helping to reduce stress levels and promote emotional balance.
  • Hormone Regulation - This specialized massage technique stimulates the vagus nerve, which plays a crucial role in regulating hormones. It can help alleviate some of the hormonal imbalances associated with menopause.
  • Improved Sleep - Many menopausal women struggle with sleep disturbances. The deep relaxation induced by this massage can enhance sleep quality and duration, leading to better overall well-being.
  • Enhanced Mood - Menopause can bring mood swings and irritability. By promoting a sense of calm and tranquillity, our massage contributes to improved mood and emotional stability.
  • Holistic Wellness - We believe in a holistic approach to menopause management. Alongside the Vagus Nerve Meditative Massage, we offer a complimentary 15-minute Hammam Time experience.

By combining the Vagus Nerve Meditative Massage with a Hammam Time experience, we offer a comprehensive wellness package tailored to the unique needs of women going through menopause.

Hammam

The Acqua Spa features the only Hammam treatment room on the island of Barbados. Tapping into centuries of Middle Eastern tradition, ladies especially love our steamy retreat that evokes quiet contemplation while revitalising you from the outside in. Hammam is believed to offer various benefits, offering an “external” approach to draw out toxins through the skin while improving circulation throughout the body.

It can be a soothing, relaxing, and rejuvenating experience for many women. For women who are pregnant or going through menopause who choose to use the Hammam, it is wise to first consult with a healthcare provider.
