From ultimate facials to the leading laser technology; our experienced therapists can advise you on the best treatments, products and skincare. Book now and prepare to feel fabulous.

Courtesy of Ling Chan, this is a whole new experience in facials, plus some. Not only does it rejuvenate the skin leaving it looking radiant and vibrant, it also targets the delicate eye and lip area, diminishing puffiness around the eyes and plumping that pout.

First your skin is cleansed, exfoliated and treated with an appropriate mask. A selection of serums are then penetrated into the deep layers of the skin using the ultra-sound machine, followed by a customised eye and lip renewal treatment which firms and reconstructs that delicate skin. Youthful, bright-eyed and kissable? We think so.

This amazing facial is designed by New York’s hottest facialist Ling Chan, combining ancient techniques with state-of-the-art formulations for optimal skin health and radiance…and those Park Avenue Princesses thought they were going to keep her as their little secret? Oops… Sorry girls! The facial includes skin analysis, exfoliation, steam cleansing and extractions. You will then be treated to a massage, followed by the ultimate Oxygen Plasma and ultra-sound treatment, and to top it all off, a bespoke herbal mask to heal any remaining imperfections. This really is the ultimate facial, which produces phenomenal results... You’ll still be glowing well into next month!

This intervention facial is designed to give optimal results in the blink of an eye. After an initial analysis, your therapist will carefully clean, steam and exfoliate. To ensure that the skin is deeply penetrated with the serums, we use the ultra-sound machine, after which your skin is moisturised and SPF’d, to protect against harsh environmental nasties and the damaging effects of the sun. This is simply divine intervention.

Celebrated by the New York Times as the ‘latest miracle ingredient’, this super effective facial uses Argan Oil, the beauty secret Moroccan women have used for centuries to combat the harsh effects of the sun and reverse the effects of ageing.
Kahina’s Argan Oil is organic, contains no artificial fragrances or animal by-products, and is paraben free. Extremely rich in vitamin E and essential fatty acids, it minimises the appearance of wrinkles, restores elasticity, protects the skin from damaging environmental factors, and also has anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties.

So just relax as your skin is thoroughly cleansed and exfoliated. Argan oil is then applied, and the expert hands of our therapists work their magic using lymphatic pressure points and deep tissue massage. Next, a mask and Kahina serum is applied to the face, neck and décolleté. This is finished with the application of hot stones, by which time you will have entered Nirvana.

Once the mask is removed, Kahina serum is re-applied, and worked in with ultra-sound to thoroughly penetrate the skin.
It is perfect for reviving a shallow, lacklustre complexion and perfect to go with a glow….anywhere.

Is it possible to find a facial that calms and rejuvenates the mind as well as the skin? Well, with a wave of a crystal wand, yes it is. It comes as no surprise to learn that a host of celebrities are already aficionados of the luxury Själ - pronounced "shawl" - brand, which until now has only been available in LA and Miami and counts Elle MacPherson and Angelina Jolie among its fans.

First, the skin is pampered with a double cleanse under steam, using essential elements and minerals including gold, silver, germanium and pearl extract while the therapist lays crystals at key chakra energy points to release tension. Then an exfoliating mask containing multi fruit acids combined with crushed pearls, diamonds, amethyst, ruby and citrine is used to brighten the skin and remove dead skin cells. Next comes an indulgent oil of lavender, rosewood, bergamot and blue sapphire from the Himalayas. A further mask containing blue lotus oil, blue sapphire and silk protein is then applied which will take away any signs of stress or redness.

Using crystal quartz and amethyst wands the therapist will gently massage face, arms, hands and - total bliss - even your feet. Lastly, a light cellular renewal cream featuring gold, silver, copper and sapphire essence is applied to nourish the skin.

This is a facial which gives you more than just buffed skin and is bound to find favour with everyone from yummy mummies to stressed executives, who may not have time to fit in both a massage and a facial, but can get the benefits of both from one very exclusive treatment.

Proving, if there was any doubt, that sapphires, crystals, as well as diamonds, are a girl's best friend!

"Devoted followers include Jessica Biel, Sophie Dahl, Helena Christenson and Elle MacPherson....and now me. This facial treatment ensured that I looked like a girl of 17 when I walked out. One of the most satisfying full-body experiences I've had in a spa in a while."
