More than a treatment.
A full-body exhale.

01

Melt tension

Release the pressure you've been carrying in your scalp, jaw, neck and shoulders.

02

Switch off properly

A dark, quiet room built for one thing: letting your nervous system settle.

03

Leave feeling renewed

Walk out lighter, clearer and calmer. Softer hair is just the bonus.

04

Feel genuinely looked after

Organic products, unhurried hands, and every detail considered.

Why La Vela

This is not a salon add-on.
It's a ritual.

La Vela Palm Beach is the original La Vela studio and Australia's first organic head spa. Every detail is designed to help you let go.

Your ritual happens in your own sensory room, lying back on a Yume head spa bed while warm water flows over your scalp. Your mind quietens, your shoulders drop, and the calm stays with you long after you leave.

  • Your own sensory room
  • Organic products, chosen for how your scalp and hair feel afterwards
  • One therapist, start to finish
  • Yume head spa bed with its own warm waterfall
  • Minutes from Burleigh, with free parking at the rear

Even better with company.

Book for Two

What your first visit
feels like.

Five phases. One pair of hands. Zero rushing.

01

Arrive and exhale

Park free out the back, step inside, and feel the noise drop away.

02

A quiet chat

Your therapist asks about your scalp, your hair and how you're feeling, so the ritual fits you.

03

Settle in

Lie back on the Yume bed. Warm towels, steam and aromatherapy start doing their work.

04

Let go

Slow scalp, neck and shoulder massage, then warm water flowing over your scalp. Some guests fall asleep.

05

Leave feeling different

Softer hair, a refreshed scalp, and that post-treatment feeling: lighter, clearer, calmer.

Social Proof

Loved across
the Gold Coast.

"I can’t find the words to express how relaxing my visit to La Vela was. Alice - my therapist, was welcoming and professional, she tailored each moment of the treatment to my preferences. Her massage was impeccable, I genuinely thought it couldn’t get any better… AND THEN the actual head spa began. You think it looks good in the photos and videos online, but there’s no words to describe how great it actually feels. I will 100% be back, thank you!"

"I just had my appointment with La Vela - it was honestly one of the most relaxing experiences I’ve ever had. … The combination of gentle scalp massage, warm water therapy, and soothing techniques completely melted away any stress. It felt like a full reset for both my mind and body. My scalp felt so clean and refreshed afterwards, and my hair was noticeably softer and healthier."

Samantha · Google Review

★★★★★
"After a truly stressful few weeks it was above and beyond my expectations. 2 hours of total relaxation the gentle scalp massage, gentle movements, aromatic scents and warmth of the water set the scene for me to relax like never before. I truly felt like I floated away to a place of pure relaxation. I have gone to head spas before but this is just on another level."

What Brings Them Back

Why our guests
keep coming back.

Because life feels full

When you're constantly holding everything together, this is a chance to let yourself be held for once.

Because stress shows up in the body

Tension, mental noise, fatigue and overwhelm all soften when your nervous system finally gets space to settle.

Because it's worth the time

This isn't a quick wash and blow-dry. It's a ritual that genuinely changes how you feel when you walk out.

Because the experience actually delivers

Beautiful spaces, incredible touch, organic products, and a ritual guests rate above any head spa they've tried.

Everything you might
want to know.

Not at all. It's a full Japanese head spa ritual, designed to help you deeply relax while caring for your scalp and hair. Immersive, sensory, and far more restorative than a salon wash.

Start with the Renewal: 90 minutes, $295, and the one we recommend for first visits. Want more time and an organic facial? Choose Calm Mind.

No. Come exactly as you are. The cleansing is part of your ritual.

Yes. Our organic products are chosen for your scalp and for how your hair feels after: soft, nourished and fresh.

In most cases, yes. Your therapist will guide you based on your hair history and goals.

Free carparks at the rear of the building, plus street parking on the Gold Coast Highway.

Each ritual has its own room and one therapist for the whole session, so we only book as many each week as we can do properly.

A limited number of Gold Coast
appointments each week.

Every ritual gets its own room and its own therapist for the full session, so there are only so many we can do properly. If you've been meaning to book your reset, this is your sign.
