When serenity reaches its peak

Peace be with you, with spas and yoga. For a feel-good experience and another way to experience the mountains, wellness is growing in popularity in Les Gets, with activities to help you develop your mindfulness.

With a front-seat view of Mont Blanc and a panorama that will take your breath away, the resort has all the ingredients for happiness. Take a deep breath of the pure, oxygen-rich air and its delicate scents of nature, admire the patchwork of colours between flowered meadows and virgin snow…serenity is at home here at high altitude. To bring these sensations within our reach, health and beauty therapists, yoga teachers and hypnotherapists have developed treatments that have become a huge success.

High altitude wellness

Spa, for pure relaxation

You can treat yourself at any time of the year. After a heavy day’s skiing or a wild mountain bike ride, a spa is the high-altitude relaxing break that belongs on everyone’s holiday schedule.

The skier’s massage, the Alpine energetics massage and the breath of fresh air treatment show that Sonia from the Clair Moment institute has incorporated every aspect of the mountains into the treatments she has created. Wellness procures relaxation and benefits from nature itself and is firmly rooted in its environment.

In the cosy wooden surroundings of the Séréni-Cimes spa, body and mind are guided together on the path to harmony. Follow up a draining hydrotherapy session with a peeling treatment, a wrap or an energising ritual. Say goodbye to muscle stiffness and soreness – the beauty therapists have the solution to all your tensions at their fingertips. The traditional aromatic Turkish bath and the chromatic meditation sauna, the ultimate in calm and relaxation, are an invitation to let go surrounded by scents and colours.

All roads lead to happiness!

Yoga

Mindfulness in the wilderness

Yoga for all

Performing sun salutations in scenery like this…Les Gets is a temple for yoga.

In the heart of the Alps, opposite the roof of Europe, serenity is the artist in permanent residence. What if all it took were to reconnect with your true nature and balance your body and your mind for wellness to come within reach?

For Barbara, who teaches yoga, the answer is obvious. The movements and poses practised mindfully help bring the body, the mind and the spirit together for total self-actualisation. On the terrace of the Grande Ourse restaurant in winter, warm up facing Mont Blanc and gently awaken your muscles to reach peaks of tranquillity before you tackle the slopes.

Since there is no right or wrong age to be happy, yoga at Les Gets is for people at any stage of their lives.

Sources du Chéry

A new natural approach to wellness

Les Sources du Chéry : the mere mention of this location sends a gentle warmth rushing through your body to pamper your mind.

This new space, devoted to wellness, beauty and beauty treatments, is a veritable invitation to discover all the benefits of nature, water and art…

A “mountain chic” ambiance is really body and soul with the elements that make up the history of the resort: water jetting forth from the surrounding springs and wood, the noble material from which the village’s name is derived, “giets” being an old French word for the channels used for transporting wood down from the mountains.

 

“Les Sources du Chéry” has three interconnected areas, based on the concept of unique, authentic & natural experiences:

  • An area reserved for adults with steam baths, saunas and cold water plunge pools, hydromassage jets and sunken benches, whirlpools, waterfalls, swimming lanes and salt caves, for the choice between a relaxing, revitalising or a sporting experience.
  • A kid zone has been specially set up under the supervision of an animator, for children between 3 and 11 years old, so that adults can serenely enjoy the SPA experience.
  • A wellness and beauty area with a warm atmosphere and massage rooms for both individual and couple’s massages. Teams of professionals are on-hand for massages and facials, using methods and products designed exclusively by Exertier Laboratories, a veritable activist for natural, French-made beauty treatments.

The brand’s authentic approach to beauty produces exclusive natural products inspired by nature in the Alps – such as mountain honey or the orchid of the Alps – also known as the “sabot de venus“.
