GIBB’S FARM African Living Spa Introduces new Treatment Venue
Karatu, Tanzania -- Healers at GIBB’S FARM Osero Forest Clinic
now provide authentic indigenous healing treatments in a recently completed Maasai Boma
(traditional settlement) called Engishon Supat, or Life House. Engishon Supat was built in
December 2006 by residents of the nearby Maasai village, Monduli, using all traditional
materials and building methods. It is located in the private forest of the GIBB’S FARM estate,
situated along the border of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area.
Guests to GIBB’S FARM may now choose to experience African Living Spa treatments in the comfort of the Farm Cottage, using both indoor and outdoor treatment spaces; in the indigenous home Engishon Supat, using authentic methods and materials; and/ or in the
calm of the forest under the healing Oreteti Tree. Remedies chosen by the healer include Engorno Milk Massage, Ojingai Heat Revival, Olkaria Clay Paint and more. Rooted in the
Osero Forest Clinic, the Living Spa draws from all the realms around GIBB’S FARM: the water; the air; the earth and its minerals, plants and animals; and the human spirit. Healing
occurs in nature, with nature, naturally.
