about

When the challenge was set to create a Beatles-inspired treatment, the spa team knew they had to come up with something that was a credit to the amazing legacy of music and creativity that The Beatles brought to Liverpool.

The musicians worked tirelessly throughout 2013 with the therapists, running ideas back and forth between the recording studios, the Lush Spa team in Liverpool and the Hard Days Night Hotel that inspired the treatment. The result is an amazing treatment that combines stress-releasing massage with cleverly reworked Beatles songs, touching base with the inspirational source that made the Beatles such a groundbreaking band.

Sit back, enjoy the familiar melodies and meditate on the lyrics... turn off your mind, relax and float downstream.

"Developing a treatment inspired by The Beatles was a joy and it's surprising how appropriate these lyrics are and how uplifting." - Mark Constantine

"We wanted to take people along the journey of sounds and feelings that mark The Beatles songs." - Simon Emmerson & Simon Richmond
