Supporting Wellness Through Cancer
At GAIA Skincare, wellness has always been about more than skin. It is about creating space - to rest, to restore, and to feel supported, whatever you may be going through.
We are proud to introduce the GAIA Affinity Face Experience, a new addition to our Affinity Cancer Experience. Thoughtfully developed for those living with or recovering from cancer, this specialised treatment offers a gentle, considered approach to touch therapy - one that prioritises comfort, safety, and individual wellbeing.
A treatment designed with care
Every Affinity Face Experience is tailored to the individual.
The journey begins with a grounding foot ritual, gently easing the body and mind into a state of calm. From there, a personalised wellness routine is created using GAIA’s mindful toolbox - designed to nurture both skin and senses.
This is more than a facial.
It is a moment to feel at ease, supported, and quietly restored.
A recognised standard of expertise
The GAIA Affinity Face Experience sits within a professional, accredited framework, ensuring the highest standards of care:
- Certified by CIBTAC
- Developed with GAIA recognised as approved training providers by SATCC
- Delivered by therapists trained to safely support guests with complex and evolving needs
This level of accreditation reflects the depth of training required - and the importance of creating safe, supportive environments for those who may not typically feel able to access spa treatments.
Expanding access to wellness
The Affinity Face Experience forms part of the wider GAIA Affinity Cancer Experience, first introduced in 2021 and now available across a growing network of spa partners.
These experiences are designed to make wellness more accessible - ensuring that more people can benefit from the power of touch, even during challenging times.
Where to experience the Affinity Facial
The GAIA Affinity Face Experience is launching at our flagship spa 15th of May 2026:
Further locations will follow in the coming months, with training available from this date for both our spa and non-spa partners.
A moment that matters
As GAIA founder Diane Nettleton shares:
“Sometimes you just need a break… The opportunity to feel normal, to live in the moment, and make that day a good day.”
The Affinity Face Experience has been created with exactly that intention.
To offer a moment of calm.
A sense of normality.
And a space where wellness feels accessible - for everyone.
