Coffee Massage
Day Spa Package
Do you love the aroma of freshly ground coffee? Then a coffee massage maybe just the style for you!
​
Roasted coffee beans are ground and then infused in a massage oil. This is then warmed and used in a relaxation or firm style massage.
Also included is a coffee body scrub to exfoliate the skin.
​
And also a coffee facial to reduce redness and puffiness.
​
All wrapped up in a spa package for coffee lovers.
​
I’ve tried most of Ripple’s massages and decided to indulge in their latest, the coffee massage.
Wow is all I can say.
​
I’m a coffee addict, but even still I loved this one the most. The scrub was gentle enough for me not to feel to roughed up like you do with some body polishes, but had enough of the coffee granules in it to leave my skin beautifully smooth.
​
And I loved the coffee oil and face mask. Karen did a great job, hadn’t had her before, but very professional and really seemed to care about her work.

Where We Found It
“As soon as you walk in, the aroma hits you..
Rich, luscious, addictive, freshly ground coffee.
​
Everyone here is pretty switched on and bright eyed (something to do with the wicked brew perhaps?) and totally enthusiastic about what they do.
​
Merlo coffee in Brisbane is filled with an obsession with freshness of the coffee. Great coffee beans, freshly roasted and ground, and it shows.
​
So sitting in among this heady aroma, it wasn’t too far of a stretch for me to put together my two favourite things. And the coffee massage was born.
​
Clutching two big bags of coffee, I headed back up to Ripple’s office on Tamborine Mountain, gathered the Ripple team, and we started experimenting with infusing the coffee in a whole host of products.
​
Three days later we had nailed it. A range of coffee massage and beauty products, unique to Ripple, used in our coffee massage. Heaven.” – Ali

Why Coffee Is Good For The Skin
-
Coffee is fantastic for reducing puffiness of the skin. The caffeine reduces skin inflammation, particularly good for around the eyes. Our coffee massage package includes a coffee facial, including freshly ground fine coffee and a nourishing mask, reducing the appearance of swelling.
-
Coffee is also good for reducing redness of the skin. Again the anti inflammatory properties of the caffeine helps eliminate blotchiness when used topically. Simply apply as a facial mask, leave it on for a few minutes and gently wash off with warm water.
-
The finely ground coffee used in the facial mask also acts as a very gentle exfoliation and will gently remove old dead skin cells and stimulate the skin and blood flow to the skin to help regenerate new ones.
-
Minimises the appearance of cellulite – this isn’t a permanent solution (sorry!) .. used in a body scrub, it will temporarily make the skin look less like orange peel. However one thing that does last longer is that the coffee body scrub is great for polishing your body’s skin and increasing circulation. We use finely ground coffee so it is gentle on the skin
