We offer a range of alternative therapies listed below. We combine nature’s remedies with science to obtain the best results.
Ear Candling
This ancient clearing method that has been used by the Egyptians, the Chinese, Greeks, and the Hopi Indians of America for centuries.
Ear candling is a holistic procedure used to remove excess wax, draw out toxins & pollutants, cleanse the sinus cavities, improve hearing & other senses & revitalize the nerve endings. It also has a psychic, emotional & spiritual impact on a person as it draws out negative toxins and revives the energy flows throughout the body.
Because of all the intricate crevices in the ear, unbelievable amounts of debris can accumulate. This build-up creates a breeding ground for problems & can also interfere with hearing. Impacted wax can build up against ear-ducts & can also block reception of incoming sound waves. This lifetime accumulation may explain some of the hearing problems we develop as we age. Yeasts, allergies or just wax build-up removed from the ear canal regularly will restore hearing, relieve tension or pressure in the ear & sometimes relieve other symptoms not consciously connected with the ear condition. The moist warm dark conditions in the ear cause fast growth of many organisms. If excess ear wax blocks the ear it can cause pressure build-up from various organisms.
Clinical studies show that candida (yeast) often becomes established in the middle ear after one or two episodes of infection where an antibiotic has been used. Candling is believed to remove candida, yeasts, fungus, & remnants of past infections. The types of bacteria we currently fight in our ears include Streptococcus pneumonia, Staphylococcus aureus, anaerobic bacteria, and Influenza A & B. Ear aches can be caused by mucus blown into the ear from the Eustachian tube. Ear candling will quite often release the pressure & relieve the pain.
Some of the benefits those undergoing ear candling have experienced include:
- Removal of excess wax & debris allowing better hearing.
- Stimulation & detoxification of the lymphatic system.
- Help in removal of parasites, dead & alive.
- Help in clearing mould caused by Candida.
- Sinuses drain & flow freely reducing sinus pressure, congestion & irritation.
- Improves vertigo & balance.
- Relieves headaches.
- Improvement in the symptoms of swimmers ear.
- Sharpens mental functions, vision, hearing, colour perception & taste.
Combining this service with a sinus cleansing treatment can be extreely beneficial. Not recommended if you have a current ear infection or recent damage to your ear drum.

This build-up of dead skin and accumulation of toxins can result in a tired body and dry, dull looking skin. As we exfoliate your outer layer of skin with the Organic Jute Body Brush, we stimulate the sweat and oil glands, the lymphatic system and blood circulation, providing you with a young, fresh, vibrant result.

Robusta Detox Body Treatment.
Helena’s Day Spa is one of only a few Day Spa worldwide to harness the Robusta coffee bean concentrate. Helena personally designed the Robusta Detox body treatment to spoil and pamper her clients whilst detoxing and exfoliating their bodies with the most natural active ingredients.
Indulge yourself
Not only is Helena’s Robusta Detox body treatment amazing for your skin, but it wakes up your senses at the same time with the heavenly smell of coffee. An experience, not just a treatment.
Not all coffee scrubs are created equal. Helena chose to use Robusta coffee as it has double the percentage of caffeine and almost double the Chlorogenic Acid (CGA), the powerful anti-oxidant, than any other coffee. This is in addition to the thorough exfoliation the ground coffee beans offer.
The caffeine content helps stimulates blood flow, targeting cellulite, stretch marks, psoriasis, varicose veins, eczema, dry skin, refined pores, skin discolouration, acne, scarring and wrinkle reduction. It also aids in tightening your skin, reducing the appearance of loose tired skin, and has anti-inflammatory properties which help to improve redness and irritation on your skin.
The powerful anti-oxidant properties of CGA and added essential oils, help nourish and protect your skin. The antioxidant ingredients in our Robusta coffee scrub help you fight pigmentation and premature skin ageing.
Helena’s Robusta Detox Body Treatment will leave your skin deeply moisturized after buffing and scrubbing all the dead skin cells away. Your skin will feel softer than ever! This very well may be the greatest body scrub of all time. Try it for yourself.
This scrub will also combine with a body massage to relax & enjoy the experience as much as possible.
Reflexology.
The ancient healing art that is as blissful as it is beneficial.

Massaging these reflex points restores natural energy flow & improves overall health.
