Chuan Spa

Re-birth and Re-balancing based on traditional Chinese Medicine, the eclectic Chuan Spa goes way beyond conventional pampering. It emphasizes a complete, holistic journey of wellbeing, bringing you literally a rebirth experience at the spa. The entire treatment menu is founded on the Five Elements, Yin and Yang, and Jing Luo, the Meridian System. Guests benefit from personalised programmes that sweep away fatigue and restores tranquility and energy. Relax in the luxurious sauna, steam and oriental hot tub, and get ready for the ultimate pampering.

Chuan Spa is currently launching a traditional Chinese Medicine treatment called moxibustion, an ancient technique where a small, spongy Chinese herb called moxa is burnt, stimulating and improving the flow of Qi. The treatment starts with a ying-and-yang diagnosis, and comes with a wonderful rose and geranium oil facial, the perfect way to combat daily stress and restore equilibrium.

If Traditional Chinese Medicine is one of those mysterious wonders that fascinates you but also scares you a little, Langham Place’s Chuan Spa has the perfect solution with their new TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) Tuesdays starting 2 March. The spa is offering free TCM consultations with their qualified doctor every Tuesday to all clients who indulge in a TCM inspired treatment. A consultation with Chuan Spa’s doctor is normally priced at $600 but will be free on Tuesdays. Dr Gladys Leung is able to provide a full health consultation and diagnose on all concerns such as body pain, stress, insomnia, indigestion, weight issues and skin problems. She will then provide a prescription to assist with optimal health.

Prescriptions could be for medicine, medicinal soups, teas, acupuncture, Ho Guan (cupping) or moxibustion. All can be offered in the blissfully peaceful Chuan Spa environment. Chuan Spa offers more than 60 treatments, most of which were inspired by the philosophy of Traditional Chinese Medicine. The spa combines Wu Xing (the Five Elements), Yin and Yang and Jing Luo (the Meridian System) to help clients reach ultimate harmony, relaxation and balance. Chuan Spa manager, Sheryl Wan says: “Our priority is to offer our customers a true haven in oriental luxurious pampering. Traditional Chinese Medicine, with its 5,000 years of research, provides a powerful foundation enabling us to look for clues in the individual to provide optimal balance of the body's contrasting elements.”

TCM Tuesdays runs from 1pm – 6pm until further notice. All treatments include complimentary valet parking and full access to Chuan Spa’s health and wellbeing facilities including Pulse fitness studio, Plunge rooftop pool and the private Tri-Bathing Ritual areas with oriental hot tubs, saunas, steam rooms and onsen showers. Reservations can be made by phoning 3552 3510 or emailing hkg.lph.chuanspa@langhamhotels.com.
