Spa Riviera launches Gugma Card and Turista Massage
Spa Riviera, the pioneer spa and wellness center in
Iloilo is celebrating 15 years of continued success and innovation this October,
which is timely because October is also Wellness Month.
Gugma Card
As a token of Spa Riviera’s love (gugma) for its
clientele, it has launched its “Gugma Card” which comes with free add-ons and
special price discounts. “Gugma Card will be given to the first 200 who will
avail of our two signature Ilonggo services - Gayuma Package and Gayuma
Experience in any of our 3 branches. Every month, we will have special free
add-ons. The card is valid for one year,” said Anna Marie Rivera-Wharton, chief
executive officer of Spa Riviera.
Gayuma Package is a two-hour luxurious pampering that
includes a hot stone massage and a choice between an organic facial and a body
scrub. Meanwhile, Gayuma Experience is a three-hour uniquely relaxing
experience that includes sauna, foot massage, hot stone massage and Barako Body
Scrub. A hot stone massage promotes deep
relaxation, reduces stress and improves blood flow. With Barako Body Scrub, delight
in the smell and feel of coffee granules on your skin, because body scrubbing
helps revitalize your skin cells.
Turista Massage
Spa Riviera is every tourist’s getaway after a day of touring
the beautiful sights of Iloilo. So, this October, they will launch another unique
service – Turista Massage.
“Tourists feel tired at the end of the day. Most of the
time, more pressure is felt on the back and legs. Turista Massage will address
it,” Wharton said.
Turista Massage is a one-hour massage service wherein Spa
Riviera’s trained therapist applies special strokes and techniques that will
ease away the tiredness and tightness on your back and leg muscles. Prior to
that, you will be pampered with a hot footbath that is infused with sea salt
and herbs. Sea salt is an organic salt that helps relieve body fatigue and
muscle cramps in addition to its good exfoliating features. Meanwhile, herbs have
antioxidants and rich in anti-inflammatory benefits that will restore your skin
to health after you have exposed it to sun, wind and dirt while travelling.
“Turista Massage is not only for tourists but for
everyone,” Wharton said.
Other Services
From simple beanbags to a small treatment space during
its first year of operations, Spa Riviera at 15 years, has now grown in terms
of its facilities, space, expertise, personal touch and services. Spa Riviera’s
other services include body massage (Swedish, Shiatsu and Combination), chair
massage (back), Asian foot massage, Mandi Susu facial, Body scrub

“We continue to innovate for our clients. We also offer

Wharton said.
