Upon entering the spa, the sound of water from the fountain immediately calms the senses and a journey to the world of tranquility begins. Along a floating stone bridge surrounded by a subtle reflective pond before the vast bamboo courtyard, natural stones on foot paths mark the commencement of a truly mystical adventure. From the leaf ceiling atop the reception area, a series of natural bamboo poles line up along the corridors leading to the treatment rooms, which showcase indoor gardens, high ceilings with skylights to allow natural sunlight for the nourishment of bamboo trees. At the center of the establishment is an outdoor setting for guests to recall the splendor and serenity of nature, awakening their senses to the healing sense of touch. One of the spa’s signature therapies is the Royal Banyan Package, featuring a herbal pouch massage with sesame and sunflower oil which can prevent skin cells from oxidation and repair damage. During the treatment, the therapist also uses orange peel, ginger andhoney to exfoliate andwarmup the body. Lastly, a Chinese foot massage works on acupressure points to release energy blocks, inducing a deep sense of relaxation.
