One of Londons most legendary and historic
hotels, The Connaught in fashionable Mayfair, has opened an Aman
Spa in the hotels new West Wing.
The varied treatments at Aman Spas around
the world are tailored to provide guests with an exceptional
experience. The core of the Aman Spas menu at The Connaught is
based on key treatments reflecting the renewing traditions of
China, Thailand, India and the Americas.
Inspired by China, treatments include a green
tea aromatic foot bath and a massage using traditional Chinese
techniques. An Oriental oil massage and Thai herbal compress are
among the treatments from Thailand. From India there is a Chakra
balancing treatment with essential oils and crystals and a
Samadara facial technique. Reflecting the Americas, guests can
experience a red clay body wrap with Navajo herbs and a River rock
stone massage.
This international approach to wellness means
that Aman Spa can offer guests treatments that target individual
needs, said Heather Blankinship, Amanresorts Spa Operations
Director.
Guests simply book the amount of time they wish
to spend with one of Amans internationally trained, holistic
therapists, and after a consultation and foot bath, their
treatment is formulated to achieve their personal wellness goals.
Both body and face treatments are tailored specifically to
individual guests needs. The music which accompanies individual
treatments is chosen specifically to match the rhythm and flow of
the treatment, be it a facial, massage or scrub, further enhancing
the holistic nature of the spa. The Aman Spa experience continues
with an organic tea selection and a broad range of reading
materials.
The five candlelit treatment rooms, one double
and four single, each feature a dressing area, treatment area and
steam room as well as individual music systems. The 60 square-metre
swimming pool is lined with dark gray granite tiles and the steam
room is infused with essential oils which are changed to
holistically enhance well-being during the four seasons of the
year.
The Aman Spas physical space at The Connaught
is a blend of cool granite and white marble, warmed with timeless
honey-gold oak and dove-grey Portland Stone chosen for their
intrinsic English appeal as well as for their enduring quality.
Linen, cotton, bamboo fiber and silk in white, gold, burnished
pewter, stone green and faded brown add further warmth.
White-painted wicker furniture and extensive use of back-lit
timber lattice work soften the robust qualities of stone and wood,
and the overall effect, conveyed by the varying textures and tones
of the materials used, is of contrasts hard and soft, dark and
light, rough and smooth, warm and cool.
