Treatments and Programs: Facials - Eclat Intense (miraculously rejuvenates the face within minutes, making it a perfect defense against jet lag. After a light peeling, serums and gels containing nourishing sea properties are applied manually and ultrasonically to the face to ensure the deepest penetration of ingredients possible. The skin appears lifted, toned, more elastic and invigorated.); The Breath of Freshness (oxygenating facial for uneven skin tones, dull complexions, hyperpigmentation as well as age spots. With its patented Melaclear compound, this treatment will inhibit enzymatic formation of melanin pigments, promote topical exfoliation to significantly lighten existing age spots, provide anti free radical properties to slow down the aging process, brighten the complexion and even out the skin tone.); Hydrating Biomorphosis (ideal for very dry, dehydrated skin. It also works wonders after microdermabrasion, surgical procedures and acid peels. Formulated to nourish and hydrate the skin in depth, Biomorphosis is a treatment rich in marine elements, collagen and Eau Vitale d'Algue Bleue, which is filled with nutrients from Spirulina seaweed making the ingredients 100% active.). Thalassotherapy - At the heart of I-Spa by Algotherm is the floating bed-the latest innovation in relaxation therapy. Lying on a moving surface, relaxing through imperceptible massage, one is gently enveloped by seawater heated to 99 degrees. Floating freely in this warm embrace eliminates feelings of heaviness, allowing an incomparable sensation of lightness and physical and mental relaxation to take over. The treatment can be tailored to include seaweed wraps, known for their calming and stimulating properties. The final result? Feeling simultaneously relaxed and invigorated. The Multi-Sensory Shower is a study in state-of-the-art bathing. As soon as one enters the specially-designed cabin of cascading water, one enters into the soft fragrances of a tropical mist. The light dims gradually giving way to orange hue and a pleasant, warm, Caribbean rain... The scent of tropical fruit mingles with the water jet to create a truly serene and calming experience. Massage - Chromo-Energétique (extremely gentle treatment, harmoniously combining different types of massage, such as Shiatsu and plant reflexology. This is a complete treatment during which physical blockages simply vanish and one plunges into an extraordinary state of relaxation. All tension disappears and a zen state is achieved for both mind and body. I-Spa by Algotherm also offers essential oil massages. Lasting between 25 and 50 minutes, the treatments combine traditional and Asian techniques and use concentrated natural therapeutic essences: Initiatique for the initial discovery of the virtues of massage; Relaxant, based on Korean techniques; Dynamisant, borrowed from Ayurvedic massage that concentrates on energy lines; and Circulatoire, which employs draining and circulation techniques to provide relief for 'heavy legs.' Half Day Cure - For therapies that target specific needs, I-Spa by Algotherm offers half day treatments to combat fatigue and eliminate tension. The Anti-stress cure is comprised of Asian massage, wrap treatments on a floating bed, re-mineralizing sea treatments and foam baths. The Cure Vitalité combines a series of energizing treatments such as hydro-massaging baths and massages with stimulating oils for a great energy boost. The Cure Beauté is a complete makeover of the face and body. It combines the Chromo-Energétique massage with an added lifting treatment that includes active sea ingredients as well as treatments for the eye area. Another innovation is the Slimming Starter, which prepares and accompanies anyone wishing to lose a few inches around her curves. In addition to a seaweed-based slimming treatment applied under a heated blanket, innovative pressotherapy and cryotherapy treatments activate the circulation in the afflicted area.

Spa Facialities: There are two relaxation areas; one with a sauna and a large stimulating shower and another with variable lighting effects that create a calm, quiet atmosphere. Before leaving, guests can indulge in a cup of a specially created blend of detox tea-the final touch before facing the hustle and bustle the outside world. The Spa is also equipped with a fitness center open 24 hours a day with the latest cardio training equipment: four treadmills with televisions; two step machines; a pneumatic; a Nautilus machine; two electronic bicycles; and an area for stretching. Outside, there is a jogging trail in the Tuileries Gardens.
