SPAS ON LAND
Asaya Spa— The Chancery Rosewood, London
The Chancery Rosewood opened inside the former U. S. Embassy on Grosvenor Square, a Grade II-listed modernist landmark designed by Eero Saarinen in 1960. Below ground, the 12,000-squarefoot Asaya Spa, designed by Yabu Pushelberg, includes an 82-square-foot pool, five treatment rooms, a sauna, a steam room, a cold plunge and a hydrozone. Its defining feature is the Taktouk Clinic, the second location from Dr. Wassim Taktouk and the first time his treatments have been offered outside his Knightsbridge practice, within the wider spa and wellness program. The menu includes the Signature Glacé
Skin Facial, combining exfoliation and cupping massage with LED technology and SkinCeuticals serums, and Ultherapy Prime, which uses real-time ultrasound imaging for nonsurgical skin tightening. Elsewhere, EviDenS de Beauté pairs French skincare with Japanese techniques, while neuroaromatics brand MoodsPro makes its global debut with NeuroFusion massages designed to work across both the muscular and nervous systems.
Sacred River Spa— Four Seasons Resort Bali at Sayan, Ubud
Four Seasons Sayan offers what it calls the world’ s only hotel arrival by river raft, an immersive introduction to its Ayung River setting. The 54,000-square-foot Sacred River Spa draws on the Balinese philosophy of niskala, the unseen or energetic world.
Its architecture amplifies the valley’ s light, foliage and rushing water, while every treatment begins and ends with quartz crystal singing bowls tuned to 432 Hz. Six signature Balinese Healing Rituals include Restu Bumi, a spiritual cleansing using local instruments, aromatic herbs and a warm gemstone massage, and Tirta Ening, a water-focused ritual combining crystalenergized water with a flowing waterbed massage. Treatments incorporate Synthesis Organics, an Australian plant-powered skincare and aromatherapy line introduced through a new collaboration with the spa. Resident Wellness Mentor Ibu Fera, a former Buddhist nun, leads meditation twice daily, hosts weekly Life Talks and guides the Sacred Nap, a restorative practice experienced in a silk hammock.
