Top 10 Must-Try Temple Spa Treatments in Devon
1. ‘CHAMPAGNE & TRUFFLES’ FACIAL
60 MINS | 90 MINS
Experience the epitome of luxury with Temple Spa’s ‘Champagne & Truffles’ Facial. We love how this luxurious facial seamlessly combines the benefits of truffle skincare with specialised lifting massage techniques. Not only does it effectively target deep lines and wrinkles, but it also works wonders in strengthening muscle tone and reducing puffiness, leaving your skin visibly revitalised and letting your natural beauty shine.
Available as a 60 or 90-minute spa treatment, we recommend the full 90! This longer treatment includes the application of a cooling alginate mask, providing a refreshing and soothing sensation, and the addition of rose quartz massage therapy. This enhances the overall rejuvenation process, promoting circulation and radiance.

Embark on a luxurious spa journey with Temple Spa’s ‘Drift Away’ Massage, one of the new range of treatments offered at The Alchemist Spa. This top-to-toe massage is meticulously crafted with a dreamy blend of Mediterranean essential oils, featuring the enchanting scents of Frankincense, Lavender, and Patchouli.
The unique properties of Frankincense, renowned for its grounding and spiritually uplifting qualities, join forces with Lavender, celebrated for its calming and soothing effects. Patchouli, with its earthy and balancing notes, adds an extra layer of depth. Together, these essential oils work harmoniously to induce a profound sense of calm and alleviate stress, inviting you to completely unwind.
Available as a 25, 40, or 55-minute treatment, the ‘Drift Away’ Massage not only transports you to a state of deep tranquillity but also provides a holistic experience that soothes both body and soul.

Following the scrub, surrender to the warmth of a purifying mud mask expertly applied to your back, for a deeply cleansing and hydrating effect.
As the mask performs its magic, a detoxifying foot massage will ensure that every part of you is immersed and soothed. Lightly warmed mitts delicately remove the mask, preparing you for the grand finale—a stimulating back, neck, and shoulder massage that leaves you not only energised but also with a back to be proud of. This treatment, set in the tranquil ambiance of our dedicated treatment room, will leave your skin refreshed, renewed, and utterly pampered.

Loved by spa aficionados, scrubs are a well-kept spa secret – but they’re just like a massage really – with extra goodness!” – Ange Black, Spa Manager

As you emerge from this treatment, your skin will be smoother, softer, and thoroughly hydrated—equipping you to confidently face the world.
Spa Expert Review:

5. ‘YOUR BEST YOU’ MENOPAUSE MASSAGE
60 MINS | 90 MINS
We’re excited to offer this new mood-boosting Temple Spa treatment, tailored specifically to support women during the menopause journey. The ‘Your Best You Menopause Massage’ offers a unique combination of a full body massage (60 minute treatment) and facial tailored to your needs (90 minute treatment).
Crafted to alleviate menopause joint pain, this treatment incorporates healing stones for stress relief and rhythmic stretches. Whether you’re in the early stages of peri-menopause or further along, our goal is to provide support during your second spring.
You have the option to choose between a warm or cool treatment based on your preferences and symptoms. Your gentle and caring massage utilises the expertise of our therapists, combining skilled hands and Himalayan Salt stones with the Temple Spa skincare range.

The routine includes rhythmic stretches and gentle joint rotations to ease menopause-related joint pain. The hour-long session ends here, leaving you feeling energised, nurtured, and completely at ease, offering a helping hand for menopause-related aches and pains.
The 90-minute Menopause Massage gives you more time to relax and is complemented by a soothing lymph drainage facial to reduce puffiness, leaving your skin fresh and beautifully radiant.

7. WORK IT OUT MASSAGE
25 MINS | 40 MINS | 55 MINS
If you’re looking for a Deep Tissue Massage, this is the one! Temple’s Spa ‘Work It Out Massage,’ is a detoxifying and invigorating deep tissue massage designed to relieve fluid retention and soothe tired, aching muscles.
Embark on a journey to well-being as we kickstart the treatment with body brushing, stimulating circulation to enhance lymph drainage. The massage that follows takes a targeted deep tissue approach, employing muscle-fitness techniques and movements that effectively work on knots, tensions, and tightness. This comprehensive approach not only aids in the detox process but also leaves your muscles thoroughly worked out and revitalised.
But it’s not only the technique that makes this massage so effective, it’s also the blend of essential oils in the ingenious WORK IT OUT detox massage oil – Juniper, Lavender, and Cypress. Juniper is known for its detoxifying properties, and assists in reducing fluid retention; lavender helps to alleviate muscle tension and promotes release; and cypress oil is known to have a toning effect on the skin and muscles. Together, these essential oils create a harmonious blend that not only addresses physical concerns like fluid retention and muscle fatigue but also provides a sensory experience that promotes wellbeing.
