Gharieni partners with Dornbracht Gharieni – designer and manufacturer of high-end, luxury spa treatment tables – has joined forces with bathroom fittings specialist Dornbracht to create the Libra, a wet table which enables guests to shower lying down. The two companies have combined their expertise to create the innovative new product.
The heatable table is height- as well as front- and rear-adjustable and comes equipped with a horizontal shower module with six recessed water bars. Users can choose from a variety of pre-programmed ‘aqua choreographies’ which offer either a balancing, an energising or a de-stressing effect. There's also a range of settings for water temperature, intensity and quantity.
Sammy Gharieni, CEO of Gharieni, told Spa Business: “The Libra Horizontal Shower is not just a new wet table, it’s a completely new concept in terms of its functionality. Time and again we find the high-end spa and wellness markets need extraordinary, luxury innovations.”
Dornbracht’s Bastian Hartwigsen said: “We’re very excited to partner with Gharieni, and have merged our knowledge and capabilities to create a unique treatment experience for spa customers.”

Natural, ethical skincare from Africa
Stephan Helary, a botanist from South Africa has used his extensive knowledge of the country’s indigenous plants to set up natural and ethical skincare company Terres D'Afrique (lands of Africa).
The face and body products include sustainably-harvested, wild botanicals such as rooibos, baobab and marula which – because they grow in harsh environments – are a rich source of omega 3 oils and powerful antioxidants. The range has been formulated as a premium spa line and is complemented by Terres D’Afrique rituals which have been inspired by traditional African therapy techniques.
Helary, who’s spent years researching the plants and developing the formulations, says: “African people have used powerful botanicals as traditional healing elixirs for centuries. The curative and restorative power of many African plants is legendary for a reason. We can say they work – in no uncertain terms.”

Hot property from Dalesauna Spa equipment supplier, Dalesauna, has developed the Rohol Sauna, which combines both infrared technology and traditional sauna heaters. The sauna – which has a modern look thanks to veneered panels – features wall heaters that produce heat via infrared light. The infrared rays penetrate the body to make people feel warm from the inside out. The physiological benefits are said to be akin to those felt after exercise such as detoxification through sweat production, pain relief and a strengthened immune system. It’s also been designed to use 30 per cent less energy than conventional saunas.
