Daintree Spa's signature treatment, Walbul Walbul (which means 'butterfly') connects guests with the vibration of this ancient land by way of a warm oil and desert salt scrub. This is followed by a head treatment aptly called Milkanga Kaday (return to the mind), before the healing waders of a rain shower and a soothing massage unites the body with the sky. The treatment is likened to the brilliant transition of a caterpillar to a butterfly, which spreads its wings and soars when opened to nature.
Alongside the various spa treatments, the Kuku Yalanji guides offer insights on how their ancestors lived in harmony with nature. Dreamtime story telling is perhaps the most unique method. Set in a clearing in the forest, and conducted in the early evening around a campfire, guests can listen to a telling of selected Dreamtime stories – always with the permission and approval of the Kuku Yalanji elders. The oldest folklore on earth, guests are connected to this special land in a truly unique way. As well, art workshops and cultural classes provide a glimpse into this aboriginal culture in a relaxed interactive and non-contrived way.
