TRANSCRIPT
Daintree Wellness Spa is a unique body, mind and soul experience, harnessing the rainforest’s natural vitality to create a healing environment unlike any other.
The Daintree rainforest is 135 million years old and home to the spiritual ancestors of the Kuku Yalanji tribe – rainforest-dwelling Aboriginal people who named this place 'Wawu-karrba’ which translates to healing of the spirit. This place name has become a part of our spa philosophy.
With approval from the Kuku Yalanji elders, our spa treatments integrate the wisdom of ancient cultures, medicines, spirituality and healing.
In a world rapidly losing its Indigenous traditions, we seek to preserve them.
In harmony with nature,
In the essence of nurture,
In respect of culture.
