Well known for its bath bombs and scrumptious scents, Lush proves that it is more than just a playground for lovers of all things bathtime. Tucked away beneath the lively hum of the high street lies Lush Spa – a hidden retreat from the outside world that goes far beyond the traditional spa experience. It combines expert therapies with the brand’s signature fresh, handmade products, in an indulgent menu that offers treatments from tension-releasing massages and soothing facials to immersive sound baths – all which engage all the senses, and provide the scent-filled experience Lush is known and adored for.
Experiences at Lush Spa are closer to works of art than traditional spa therapies, utilising bespoke soundtracks and carefully curated essential oil blends to transform simple treatments into unforgettable escapes. Inspired by everything from ancient Ayurvedic practices to the landscapes of the Scottish Highlands, here are our top Lush treatments perfect for a treat for yourself, or for a loved one in need of some rejuvenating TLC:
Highlands Spa Treatment (60 minutes, £150)
This brand new treatment to Lush Spa is rooted around a hot stone full body massage, designed to soothe tense muscles while immersing guests in the rich traditions of Scottish wisdom. Beginning with a unique stone consultation, each symbolising a state of mind and inspired by tarot readings, the experience offers a moment of reflection before moving into the deeply restorative massage. Warm basalt stones, inspired by those found in Scottish riverbeds, are worked rhythmically across the body using a solid massage oil bar infused with mugwort, a traditional remedy for calming the nervous system.
As the treatment unfolds, the bespoke folk soundtrack featuring Scottish Gaelic music guides guests on a magical journey through Scotland’s breathtaking landscapes, combining physical relaxation with spiritual connection to the geography. The experience peaks with the cooling touch of smooth stones applied to the face, mirroring the crisp air atop a Highland summit. This transportive experience leaves a long-lasting feeling of grounding, relaxation, and empowerment to take on all that life throws at you.
A real must-try for adventure-seekers with sore muscles, stressful schedules, and depleted energy levels.
Synaesthesia (80 minutes, £160)
Lush Spa’s signature best-seller, Synaesthesia, takes guests on an 80-minute full-body massage journey designed to engage all five senses to transform both body and mind. The uniquely choreographed immersive treatment blends touch, colour, scent, and sound to create a personalised journey of relaxation and renewal. The treatment focuses on one of 11 ‘intentions’ selected at the start, guiding the bespoke experience towards the desired aim – whether that is resilience, calm, even inspiration. The sensory experience is elevated with the custom essential oil-infused massage bar, a fragrance-filled bath bomb, and a powerful soundtrack featuring a 52-piece orchestra and English bird song which fills the room. As a final touch, guests leave with a bath bomb infused with their chosen intention, ensuring the benefits of the treatment continue long after they step outside.
The perfect gift for those seeking a full sensory reset.
The Comforter? (60 minutes, £110)
The full-body scrub and massage is designed to cocoon its guests in warmth, nostalgia, and pure indulgence. Inspired by the cosy comfort of bedtime, this treatment begins with a rich hot chocolate body scrub, gently exfoliating the skin with ground aduki beans and nourishing illipe butter. A luxurious rose serum massage follows, melting into the skin to leave it soft, supple, and delicately scented. Wrapped in a fluffy duvet within a dreamlike pink-lit room, guests unwind to a bespoke lullaby-inspired soundtrack, blending childhood nostalgia with deep relaxation. The experience ends with a sparkling candyfloss mocktail – a playful reminder to embrace life’s simple joys.
Ideal for those that need some help to melt away into a deep state of sleep and relieve themselves of all burdens of life.
The Sound Bath (60 minutes, £95)
In this deeply meditative treatment, sound therapy is combined with a soothing face and scalp massage, aimed to restore clarity and balance. Beginning with the gentle warmth of ear candling, the experience uses tuning forks, Tibetan singing bowls, and gongs to create a live soundscape designed to soothe the mind and heighten awareness. As tension melts away with delicate massage techniques, guests are immersed in a multi-sensory journey where sound, scent, and touch work in harmony to transport and elevate. Emerging from this sonic state leaves a newfound sharpness in the senses, finishing with a refreshing elderflower lemonade to gently return to the present.
The perfect treatment match for those suffering from sensory fatigue and seek retuning to the world around.
