Standing on a 123-hectare land, as far as the eye can see in the resort area, the only thing that can be seen is Mount Salak with its lush and beautiful vegetation. The mist that descends throughout the day adds to the coolness of the air. The undulating mountainous terrain has not been significantly altered by resort architects in order to effectively arrange the layout of the buildings. Almost every road has stairs. The purpose is to encourage active movement and sweating for visitors.


Adding to the beauty of the scenery, a beautiful Japanese-style garden surrounds the spa building, captivating the eyes and enchanting the view. Javana Spa Resort not only provides various body treatments, but also offers a spa lounge, whirlpool pool, sauna, and various facilities for beauty treatments from head to toe. It also provides facilities for fitness.


There are three types of spa time, namely whirlpool or jacuzzi in Japanese, onsen, or commonly known as soaking in sulfur water, and swimming. To maintain a healthy physique, nutritious food is essential. Equally important is food spa.


On the second day at Javana Spa, the resort guests have a schedule for trekking to a waterfall that is approximately 45 minutes away from the resort. Mount of the Halimun National Park represents the types of lowland rainforest, sub-montane forest, and montane forest ecosystems in Java.


Almost all of the forests in this national park are located in mountainous areas with several rivers and waterfalls, which serve as hydrological protection in Bogor, Lebak, and Sukabumi Regencies. The morning walk to the waterfall turned out to be very enjoyable. The trail was not difficult, just a bit slippery and wet due to the morning rain. The descent to the waterfall was steep and slippery. Be careful.

The Javana Spa mentioned that the waterfall commonly visited is the second waterfall. The naming is based on the order of its discovery when the resort was being built. To warm up the body after being exposed to the cold waterfall, our guide prepared warm and sweet ginger tea. It was delicious. 

The main purpose of visitors in this resort is comprehensive body treatments. Starting from massages, cream baths, yoga, aerobics, and so on.


Started with a massage first. Massage therapy can help with physical and psychological recovery. The pressure on the muscles and nerves helps relax the body. Meanwhile, aromatherapy oils optimize the positive benefits on the body. The aroma or fragrance of certain substances can have a strong effect on emotions.


The fragrance of massage oils is captured by receptors in the nose, then provides information to the brain that controls emotions, memories, and also provides information to the hypothalamus, which regulates the body's internal systems, including sexuality, body temperature, and response to stress.


Choose the desired effect of aromatherapy. Lavender is sedative, antidepressant, and antiseptic commonly used for headaches and stress. Rosemary is a stimulant and analgesic used for headaches and muscle pain. Peppermint is a decongestant and antispasmodic stimulant used to relieve nausea and mental fatigue. Eucalyptus is an antidepressant. Rose is an antidepressant.


From the massage ritual, the next treatment that can be chosen is the herbal blanket. This type of treatment uses a warm blanket filled with herbs to neutralize toxins in the body and also beautify the skin. While wrapped in the warm blanket for about 30-45 minutes, the therapist then massages the face. This is what relaxation is all about.


Don't spend your time inside the resort room. Go out and enjoy the view of Sukabumi City from the terrace at Javana Spa. Healthy, fit, and beautiful, these are the three words that should be taken home from "escaping" to Javana Spa.


After a series of spa treatments, including food spa, maximize your experience with exercises that can improve your physical fitness.


For example, aerobic exercise, which is basically a type of movement that makes the heart pump and increases oxygen intake. Edward Laskowski, a Sports Medicine specialist from Mayo Clinic, revealed that during aerobic exercise, we use large muscle groups, such as the arms and legs.


In addition, aerobic exercise positively challenges the heart. It stimulates the heart to become strong and efficient. Because it is stronger and more efficient, the heart is able to pump more blood and does not need to work hard during rest or exercise. That's why a strong and healthy heart is the reason we can live longer and healthier.


There is still time until the afternoon before returning to Jakarta. The next series includes yoga and hair treatments. One part of yoga is the stretching process. This process is useful for releasing lactic acid which usually causes stiffness, tension, pain, and fatigue. In addition, yoga also improves various movements and lubrication in the joints.


Stretching in yoga is not only for the muscles but also for all the cells in your body. A study found that there was a 35 percent increase in flexibility after 8 months of practicing yoga. The greatest benefit is flexibility in the shoulders and body.


Closing the end of the weekend is a hair care ritual, not only making the hair appear healthier from the outside. But the right massage can stimulate hair growth and strengthen it from the roots.
