Sensei Lanai, A Four Seasons Resort Introduces New Spa Experiences

The distinctive collection of spa experiences at the adults-only wellness retreat on the Hawaiian island of Lanai has been enhanced with two new treatments – Recover and Renew Sports Massage and Rejuvenating Marine Body Wrap.

Treatments at Sensei Lanai, A Four Seasons Resort are offered in a collection of ten 1,000 square foot (93 square metre) spa hale, houses in Hawaiian, providing an intimate escape surrounded by the beauty of nature. The private spa hale are perfect for individuals or couples, complete with oversized spa tables, changing rooms and bathrooms and amenities, allowing each guest an experience focused on the individual. Guests can choose from a menu of customized facials and body treatments; two hale feature Watsu pools for unique aquatic bodywork. New on the menu are the following:

Recover and Renew Sports Massage

A blend of invigorating and restorative massage techniques is employed in a curated 60- or 120-minute treatment purposefully designed for active individuals. Led by one of Sensei’s highly trained massage practitioners, a functional assessment is performed to understand a person’s body mechanics, or how they use their body in daily motions, as well as identifying specific areas of tension.

The island of Lanai has an exciting array of land and sea activities, from hiking and e-biking, golf and tennis to horseback riding or scuba diving.  The tailored sports massage can help muscles relax or enhance performance for future pursuits.

The treatment begins with a dry scalp massage followed by percussive technology and gentle, nourishing stretches to ease muscle stiffness and help prepare the body for deeper sports therapy massage. While unwinding, slow rhythmic massage strokes increase in pressure to melt away muscle tension, relieve soreness, and restore balance.

Rejuvenating Marine Body Wrap

Experience the benefits of kelp, herbal extracts and fruit oils in this 120-minute hydrating and stimulating treatment. These effective ingredients work their magic to cleanse, relax and rejuvenate. The treatment begins with a soothing body scrub, followed by a warm and nutrient-rich marine wrap, drenching skin with rich nourishment.  After a refreshing shower, enjoy a full-body massage using fruit oils and shea butter.  A highlight is the special attention dedicated to the face and neck, increasing circulation and relieving jaw tension often held without even being aware.

Indulge further in the spa oasis and add private hale time to any treatment.  Try any or all of the amenities including infrared sauna, Ofuro bath, outdoor rain shower and soaking tub. Then replenish with gourmet refreshments and snacks in a cozy lounging area.  Hale are nestled within lush greenery, with water features providing a musical background, peacefully fostering a relationship between nature and one’s surroundings.  

Guests can choose from a collection of curated experiences to more structured programs, to best align actions to intentions on their journey to well-being. In collaboration with pre-arrival specialists and Sensei Guides, customized itineraries are crafted to meet each guest’s personal goals and preferences in an inspiring and supportive environment.  Itineraries are comprised from a selection of wellness activities, spa treatments, a range of island activities and world-class golf and tennis facilities complemented by innovative dining, all set amidst a serene and luxurious setting.
