Designer Hotel Ovolo Teams Up With Renowned Clinicians To Offer A Pop-Up Spa

Renowned clinicians team up to offer a pop-up of spa-tacular delights this October.

For those travelling to Melbourne this October, or locals wanting to indulge in a little luxury, Ovolo South Yarra has an exciting collaboration in store – partnering with renowned Dermal Therapist James Vivian, owner of his eponymous clinic and winner of the 2023 ABIA Australian Clinic of the Year, along with leading massage specialist, Joanna (Joey) Beecher from mobile massage service STILL Beauty. 

Together, they are taking over Ovolo’s GoGo rooms for a two-week Spa Pop-up, offering a special treatment menu of invigorating body scrubs, rejuvenating treatments, relaxing massages, and luxurious facials. 

Dubbed a skincare luminary, and ‘face whisperer’, James’ dedication, care and innate understanding of the links between skin, mind, body and environment flow through every skin venture he touches. With a career spanning many years, he has become a trusted authority in the field, helping countless individuals achieve healthier and more radiant skin.

In 2004, a facial changed his life, inspiring him to swap a career in music for one in dermal therapies. Opening his Toorak clinic in 2021, the space now has a months-long waitlist, including a number of celebrity clients, as well as creating his own skincare line Viviology — in conjunction with leading cosmetics and skincare online retailer, Adore Beauty.

Since launching STILL in 2014, Joey has built a reputation as one of Australia’s leading remedial massage therapists. With over 15 years of industry experience, she is a passionate practitioner, consultant and massage trainer. A Melbourne-based massage service, which is available at client’s homes, or at Little Company in Collingwood, STILL has been helping people through all of life’s little (and not so little) tensions. 

The partnership brings a new offering to guests of Ovolo South Yarra, who already have access to an extensive list of ‘Perks’.

The treatments will be available from Wednesday, 11 October to Saturday, 14 October, and Thursday, 19 October to Monday, 23 October with daily appointments available between 10:00 am and 6:00 pm.
