Spa 180 has been carefully curated to help you slow down, breathe, and reconnect with yourself, or that special someone. With mindfulness at the heart of everything we do, our space is for those wanting to escape the chaos of life and immerse themselves within breathtaking nature.
A force of nature
It takes a special kind of vision to follow your passion, trust your instincts and grasp an opportunity with both hands. Which is exactly what husband and wife team, Jaclyn Harris and Alex Illman did with Spa 180.
As health and wellness advocates, it has been a lifelong dream of theirs to run a wellness spa to help others relax, recharge and reconnect with themselves. Both born and bred in Tasmania, Jaclyn and Alex have spent years within the wellness field and now bring their global expertise and experience to Spa 180.
Alex has recently completed his studies and experience in Remedial Therapies and Jaclyn is a qualified Naturopath who began her clinical practice in 2003. With a particular interest in women’s health, Jaclyn focuses on helping women along their journey to fertility, pregnancy and motherhood. She also incorporates skin and massage treatments into her practice to help clients focused on skin concerns, emotional stress or body aches and pains.
In 2009 Alex and Jaclyn decided to move to Dubai where Jaclyn helped to establish one of the first Wellness Centres inside a Day Spa and continued to see patients to improve their health and wellbeing. After 5 years in the Middle East, they both felt a pull to come back to Tasmania and raise their young family in the idyllic beachside town of Bridport.
Today, this power duo and their incredible team have combined their experience to create one of the most iconic spa retreat experiences in Tasmania. A space that truly embodies their belief in the importance of slowing down, reconnecting with yourself and recharging – all within the breathtaking beauty of Barnbougle.
