Give only the best to the most important woman of our lives this Mother�s Day, and surprise mum with a well-deserved treat at Angsana Spa Double Bay and Rydges Jamison. A pampering and thoughtful �Sweet Mum� package is available from 5 to 15 May 2005.

Celebrating Mother�s Day at Angsana Spa Though Mother�s Day falls on May 8, the Sweet Mum 120-minute package, priced at AUD$145, is available for a limited 10-day period in the month of May.

Designed with Mum in mind, the session begins with a Foot Wipe and Herbal Drink, and continues with a 30-minute Vitality Oil Back Massage to knead away tension and knots in the back muscles. An exciting choice of Facial follows, with ever-popular selections comprising Euro Star, Peach Blossom, Empress Veil or Cool Operator.

Best Of East and West The first Angsana Spa at Double Bay in 2003 has the distinction of being the first contemporary Asian spa in Sydney. The second Angsana Spa subsequently made its debut at the Rydges Jamison hotel, close to the commercial district and historical suburb of The Rocks. Both have since been garnering rave reviews for the Angsana emphasis on use of holistic and natural ingredients, in a modern and chic context.

The Sweet Mum package is a perfect opportunity to also sample signature therapies, which include: Cool Operator: This facial is recommended for oily skin, because of its cucumber mask that removes oil, and restores skin�s natural balance.

Empress Veil: Chinese ginseng used gives long-term benefits to dry skin in this facial. Watch it brings back the glow that's been missing for too long.

Ibu�s Secret: Adapted from traditional Balinese techniques, this popular deep tissue massage soothes aching muscles with warming Melody Oil. Ibu means �mother� in Balinese.

Angsana: A massage created exclusively for Angsana Spa using specially formulated Euphoria Oil. It frees you from stress as well as strengthens your inner �Qi� (energy).

The interior design and exterior architecture of Angsana is a spirited juxtaposition that blends contemporary chic with exotic Asian splendour, with signature Angsana hues of orange, lime green, yellow and purple in the background.
