Bella Baci - A Kiss Of Wellness


The BellaBaci Body and Facial Massage Systems are a modern and contemporary innovation based on the ancient traditional alternative/natural healing treatment methods of Chinese Cupping Therapy and Hajima.


The Bellabaci Facial Massage Therapy System

While facial massages are a great way to remove the daily stresses and strains from your face and restore that healthy youthful glow to your skin, nothing comes close to the Bellabaci Facial Massage System for optimal stimulation of skin and underlying tissues and the most relaxing, deep, comfortable massage for your face.


By improving blood circulation to the skin and by gently stimulating the fibroblast cells, natural collagen and elastin is produced and improved. Your skin will reveal a healthy glow and expression lines are plumped up! Massage the face and neck according to the diagram provided. Apply your favourite toner and anti-ageing moisturizer after the Bellabaci Facial Massage completion.

The Benefits

Use it to cleanse pores, tone skin and remove excess oil and dirt by penetrating deep below the skin’s surface. Stimulate blood supply to the skin and increase its suppleness and help firm flab. Increase your skin’s resistance to harmful elements. Use it to improve and soften scar tissue. Smooth stretch marks and clear broken capillaries.

Improve skin tone and texture by gently stretching the fibroblast cells, stimulating them to produce better quality and quantity of natural collagen and elastin enhancing product absorption. Expel toxins which are then removed by the lymphatic system. Use it to refines pores and improve micro-circulation. Lift drooping muscles, smooth wrinkles and fine lines. Use it to drain eye bags and double jaw. Use it to strength the vascular integrity of the face.


The Bellabaci Facial Massage System for at home anti-aging treatments consists of 2 superior grade medical silicone cups that are pliable, manipulative, easy to use and long lasting. It’s the natural, holistic and therapeutic treatment the world has been waiting for.

The Bellabaci Facial Massage cups provide optimal stimulation for the skin and underlying tissues (dermis and subcutaneous tissue). This gives you a relaxing, deep, comfortable massage while increasing circulation and exfoliation of the skin.

The BellaBaci Body Massage System

An ideal treatment for women or men suffering from tight and sore muscles, digestive disorders, joint pain, cellulite, headache, migraines, stretch marks and spider veins amongst others. It works wonders on the back, stomach and arms – actually almost all areas of the body will respond to this unique product.

The therapeutic effect of the Bellabaci Body Massage Cup procedure results in: eliminating stagnation, intensifying metabolism and dermal respiration in the massaged segment of the body, creating elasticity in the skin, increasing the resistance to temperature and mechanical factors and improving muscle retracting function.

 
 

When used on the back or on tight, sore muscles, it helps to break up lipid pockets (knots), improve blood circulation and eliminate toxins and other waste products from your muscles. It tones your skin, assists in body contouring, stimulates your lymphatic and blood circulation, regulates the autonomic nervous system and generally relaxes and rejuvenates the body.

For your convenience there are two cups – the softer cup to be used initially or on more sensitive areas such as the arms, stomach and inner thighs and the harder cup to be used on the back or any other areas which need intensive work. During the first couple of weeks of using the Bellabaci Cup, apply a very light suction for about eight minutes at a time to provide some drainage until your skin becomes elasticised enough. Increase suction gradually to stimulate circulation, remove stagnation and loosen adhesions.



How it all started

Discovered by its originator Keren Trabelsi after suffering from inflamed back muscles after her second pregnancy, she tried everything – from massage to physiotherapy, but found no relief. Quite by chance she stumbled upon cupping therapy. After just one session, her excruciating pain was gone for good!

She was keen to introduce cupping therapy to her clients and patients, but was concerned about the “bruising” associated with the practice. Knowing they would shy away from treatments. She started researching different materials and after a few years of testing and failures found the perfect solution to eliminating the bruising and actually improving on the traditional cupping therapy techniques. The original high grade medical silicone Bellabaci Massage Therapy Cup was born.

Bellabaci Cupping Therapy Massage Systems are approved by Doctors, Spas and Professional Massage Therapists world-wide.

Keren Trabelsi is the CEO and owner of Suntra Spa. A certified and licenced professional massage therapist since 1998 as well as a holistic and alternative therapy practitioner. The founder and originator of the Bellabaci Body and Facial Cupping Therapy Massage Systems and Techniques. She resides in Cape Town with her husband and 2 daughters.

Set adjacent to the Cape Town Planetarium the real star is next door, five star to be exact. The epitome of urban luxury is a breath of fresh air and awash with sunlight. Designed as an alternative contemporary space to the predominantly colonial styled and somewhat stilted five star accommodations about the city. This elegant experience begins with an engineered stone “red carpet” reception set in crisp white Volakas marble it becomes clear that this is no ordinary luxury hotel.


Exploring the fine art of space and light 15 on Orange Hotel is all about personal space. Offering sensual sophistication and style by combining distinctive architecture and exquisite luxury with the renowned first-class service of African Pride Hotels. The setting is urban chic permeating throughout right down to the soothing rhythms of Africa softly playing in the background.

Throughout each of the exquisitely appointed spacious rooms, a breathtaking fusion of cosmopolitan comfort and natural splendour is offered at every turn.


With the strictest of security in mind only the first and last floors are public spaces. The latter is home to the luxuriously high-tech Suntra Spa. Comprising an extravagant atrium housing Cinnamon Deli and coffee lovers can fuel their addiction with the finest coffees the world has to offer in this chic café. Indulge in your favourite delicacy from the patisserie fridge or select a cheese to enjoy after dinner. Pods alongside Cinnamon Coffee Shop offer on-the-go executives a private work station with Wi-fi access, a work desk and international plug points.



The same space also houses Savour restaurant where you can feed your soul with sumptuous local and international flavours. Experience chef Michael Meyepa’s inspired global menu in an out-of-this-world setting. Or book the private dining room free of charge the hotels most in demand location.



Cape Town evenings set in shimmering luxury right next door where local and international cognoscenti meet to relax with sundowners at the opulent Murano Bar with adjacent terrace. The bar lends its name from the exquisite Murano glass chandelier dominating the space. 18 000 individual, interlocking pieces of glass cascading from the ceiling reminiscent of the decadent bubbles to be found in Moët.



At the opposite end of the atrium unwind at the refined Judges Lounge or its spacious accompanying balcony. The Cape Town sunset transforms into vibrant nightlife when the myriad lights bring 15 on Orange Hotel alive with the sights and sounds of the night.

Downstairs business and pleasure are no longer mutually exclusive world class facilities in a truly inspiring setting takes care of business as usual.
