Give your immune system and energy levels a much needed boost this ski season. Here are our top tips:

 

BEFORE YOU SKI – VITAMIN INJECTIONS

The IV therapy solution

What: infuses nutrients and vitamins that are essential to the body directly into the bloodstream. It combines valuable nutrients and vitamins in concentrations higher than it is possible to take orally, with IV Boost patients reporting an all-over rejuvenation of mind, body and spirit. Try the Myers Cocktail IV, which works as a natural antihistamine and is key to a healthy immune system. Patients have also found great value in Myers’ Cocktail for enhancing athletic performance, perfect to ensure you are in great shape for those rigorous days on the slopes. The practitioners work with each client individually and evaluate their results objectively, and the painless treatment is completed in under 30 minutes!

SMART SKINCARE: WAYSKIN

As enjoyable as that winter ski break is, it can be hard on your skin. But you may be unsure as to which product to turn to help keep your skin in check. That’s where Wayskin comes in. It’s like a pocket dermatologist that can analyse your skin in three seconds, wirelessly pairs to your smartphone via Bluetooth and the companion app, and gives you all the advice you need!

By just touching the device to your cheek for three seconds, the UV Index, humidity sensors, and Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis sensor creates a comprehensive analysis of your skin’s health along with any recommendations for your skin. The BIA sensor reads the moisture and oil content levels of your skin while the UV Index and humidity sensors read your environmental setting. After analysing your environment, it can then accurately advise you to re-moisturise or to apply sunscreen by sending notifications to your phone.

REST AND RELAXATION: SIX SENSES SPA AT THE ALPINA GSTAAD

An icon in the exclusive, discrete and cosmopolitan Swiss resort of Gstaad, The Alpina Gstaad five-star superior hotel has single-handedly redefined luxury and Alpine chic. The Six Senses Spa, housed right at the heart of The Alpina Gstaad, is a true sanctuary of peace and well-being. Inspired by Asian wellness traditions coupled with Swiss Alpine treatments, this unique oasis of serenity offers world-renowned treatments designed to indulge the senses.

The spa is a peaceful and intimate space where you can re-energise and rejuvenate. Facilities within the spa include an indoor and outdoor swimming pool, steam room, sauna room, two Jacuzzis, a studio, gym and juice bar. The spa is also child friendly, with a play area and a separate pool with a mini slide.

Focusing on healing and wellness programmes, The Alpina Gstaad is the ideal place for you if you are looking to detox and re-energise. Join in on the many fitness classes and spa therapies the hotel has to offer, including indulging yourself in a hot stone massage or unwinding with a yoga class at the end of the day. The Alpina Gstaad aims to deliver optimal wellness to its guests with professional therapists to support you.

CLASSIC SKINCARE: L’APOGÉE AND LA PRAIRIE

Just in time for the start of this winter season, Oetker Collection’s legendary L’Apogée Courchevel sees the return of the luxurious, clinical Swiss La Prairie line. Opening with the hotel on December 15, Spa L’Apogée offers an exceptional brand in a unique location, for an unparalleled Spa experience in one of the most beautiful ski destinations in the world.

La Prairie has always combined Swiss precision, scientific innovation and the most precious ingredients to offer a subtle and magical experience based on performance and elegance. It offers exceptional treatments, lavished in a world of luxury, relaxation and pleasure.

Guests can expect a consultation with a La Prairie expert, before settling into one of the four treatment rooms, including a couple’s suite, to experience therapies performed with the line’s signature Cellular Complex products, created with a formula designed to help renew skin and combat signs of aging. Afterward, take a break from the cold with some downtime in the steam hamman, heated pool, or salt-crystal sauna.
