Types of massage offered
Swedish massage
$60 for 60 minutes

This massage is applied with the aid of smooth, round basalt stones. These volcanic stones are placed for a few seconds on precise points of the body and massage is given with them. By imparting the Earth’s energy, the hot stones warm and revive the muscles, dissolving tension away, reducing aches and pains and improving the circulation.

GOM-MEE® treatments for children
The GOM-MEE® concept aims to introduce children aged 3 to 11 to spa treatments in a friendly way.

The treatments are fun and specifically designed for children while respecting their privacy. All GOM-MEE® products, including those sold by service providers, have a pleasant smell of bubblegum. The certified gum dressing bursts with concentrate of aloe to aid in healing any skin abrasions. The child will have a healthy, moisturized skin.  It also soothes and relieves the pain caused by sunburn.

The GOM-MEE® concept has been specially developed to meet the needs of spa clients who are accompanied by children. With the revolutionary GOM-MEE® concept of combined parent/child care, all family members can now profit from the many benefits of the spa treatments offered at the Riôtel Matane.

Now parents wishing to share a different kind of activity with their children (if it rains, for instance) can enjoy their spa treatments along with them. Anyone sharing a massotherapy session with their child can now turn this visit into a cherished moment.

And what a great idea for grandparents to give a GOM-MEE® Gift Card to their grandchildren for a unique and special experience!

Each visit to the GOM-MEE® spa ends with a surprise for the children, so they can take a part of the spa experience home with them.
