Situated in the frantic heartbeat of shopping-crazed Knightsbridge the Spa at Mandarin Oriental Hotel offers a haven of tranquillity.
The world-famous five-star Hotel incorporates a unique philosophy combining exotic therapies from East and Western rituals to relieve tension from body, mind and spirit. Spa PhilosophyBy adopting an alternative approach to the traditional Spa experience, the Mandarin’s expert therapists promise a ‘Journey,’ with a series of innovative and restorative treatments they call ‘Time Rituals.’ Guests are encouraged to book blocks of time rather than specific treatments. The rituals blend techniques derived from Chinese, European, Balinese, Native American and ancient Indian Ayurvedic practices with contemporary styles. Each treatment begins and ends with the chime of Tibetan cymbals and adapted to suit individual needs determined by the guest’s basic and general reactions. You are then guided through a holistic sensory experience that touches the mind, body and spirit. It is advised guests arrive 45 minutes ahead of their treatment to enjoy the luxury facilities and immerse themselves in the Heat and Water Oasis. The Magic of Amethyst Crystals The Heat and Water Oasis comprises of a Sauna, a Vitality Pool filled with hot mineral water and hydrotherapy jets, and the Amethyst Crystal Steam Room. Amethyst crystals are thought to open intuitive and psychic abilities and are excellent catalysts for overcoming stress. Combined with eucalyptus essence the body is encouraged to slow down to become more receptive to the blissful surroundings.
