What’s included

Book This Package

The Sakura is our Japanese head spa experience, and it is unlike anything else on our menu. Two hours in total: a one-hour Japanese head spa, a one-hour pedicure and a face mask, with snacks served alongside.

The head spa is the heart of it. A full hour of slow, methodical work across the scalp, warm water and careful cleansing, encouraging scalp circulation and deep relaxation. Guests describe it as a kind of quiet they had not felt in months. It is a treatment for mental fatigue as much as for hair, which is why it has become such a favourite among people who spend their days on screens.

The pedicure runs a full hour, and the face mask sits in easily alongside the head work, so the two hours flow rather than feeling like separate bookings. Snacks are served throughout.

It suits anyone carrying stress in the head and shoulders, anyone who finds conventional massage too intense, and anyone curious about a treatment they cannot easily find nearby. At $225 for two hours it is an unusual gift as well, because most recipients will not have had one before.

How your visit unfolds

    Arrival and consultation

  2. 2

    One-hour Japanese head spa

    A full hour of methodical scalp cleansing and massage with warm water, working slowly to encourage circulation and release tension held around the head and neck.

    Face mask

    A soothing face mask applied to complement the head work, leaving your skin comfortable and refreshed.

  4. 4

    One-hour pedicure

  5. 5

    Refreshments and finish

    Complimentary snacks are served as you come back to yourself, with no rush to leave.

  • Complimentary snacks served

Good to know

What happens to my hair during the head spa?

Your hair is washed and worked through with warm water as part of the treatment, so it will be damp when you finish. Most guests plan the appointment for a day when they are heading home rather than out.

How long does the whole experience take?

About two hours in total, made up of the one-hour head spa, a face mask and a one-hour pedicure, plus time to arrive and settle in.

Does it work for someone who dislikes deep massage?

It suits them very well. The head spa is gentle and focused work on the scalp rather than deep pressure across the body, which many guests find far easier to relax into.

Is it a good gift?

It is one of our most distinctive gifts, largely because most people have never had a Japanese head spa before. The recipient books their own date and time.
