SPA TREATMENTS

289

June14

The building that houses the relatively

new Westin Hotel located in the heart

of the financial district is part office

block (for most of the first 31 floors)

and part hotel (from the 32nd floor up).

This means the lobby is, unusually,

located on the 32nd floor, and to reach

the Heavenly Spa you’ll need to take a

second lift to the 35th floor – also where

the hotel’s outdoor infinity pool and gym

can be found.

The Heavenly Massage follows the

Swedish technique, and uses a heated

compress on the back to relax the

muscles before the massage itself. The

treatment rooms here are surprisingly

large – bigger than some standard hotel

bedrooms. Aside from the treatment

room itself there’s a separate and large

bathroom, including a shower, toilet and

double sink, aswell as awardrobe to store

belongings. Before the treatment, you

can choose a body butter from a range

of scents including jasmine and vanilla;

there’s also a choice of stones bearing

words such as “love” and “gratitude”,

one of which is then placed under the

massage table for “good vibes”. Before

you lie on the table, though, the treatment

begins with a foot wash.

The spa’s relaxation area, which you

can use pre- and post-massage, has

a number of large chairs screened off

from one another for privacy, as well

as The Westin’s super-foods menu

offering dried fruit, walnuts and ginger

tea. Unusually, it’s the changing rooms

that have the real wow factor, with

floor-to-ceiling windows and views

over the CBD and the marina. This is

also where the steam bath, experience

shower and vitality pool are located,

again with panoramic city views. Guests

are advised to lower the blinds before

changing.

Gastro bar Cook & Brew, on the 33rd

level, serves food and drinks and has

an open terrace. You can also grab a

drink at the Lobby Lounge on the floor

below. We suggest you put aside some

time before or after a treatment to take

advantage of these hotel facilities.

KEY BENEFITS:

• The treatment truly relaxes the

muscles and relieves pent-up tension

• The panoramic city views from the

spa are incomparable

The Heavenly Massage costs $220 for

the 90-minute treatment. Heavenly Spa
