 The legend claims that the city of Abu Dhabi was founded upon the healing spring, which was shown to Arabs by a magic gazelle. It is unlikely to find that spring nowadays, but exclusive Abu Dhabi spas are able to restore health, beauty, youth and happiness of life!
1. Anantara Spa, the national treasure. Anantara Spa, acknowledged
to be the best wellness centre in the UAE at the international contest
MENA 2008, is located at the 5-star Emirates Palace Hotel. The secret
of its fame and success lies in the endless efforts of Anantara Spa
specialists to create new youth and beauty treatments with healing
botanicals and muds sourced from Mother Nature. It explains the huge
variety of innovative relaxation rituals, rejuvenating and health
procedures. Consider this: a usual bath with flower petals becomes very
unusual at Anantara when Herbs and Spice Bath are just a prelude to
Gray Clay Mud Wrap. After the skin is moisturised, mashed exotic fruits
with multivitamins are applied all over the body. The customer ends the
journey with energy facial and body massage. Double baths and massage
matrasses are available and your friend or spouse is welcomed. The fans
of Eastern classics will appreciate Moroccan-style Hammam, decorated
with pink marble. After visiting a steam room one can take a popular
Vichi shower or attend a cryotherapy session in the icy cave. Exausted
office people will enjoy a spa menu with different kinds of massage -
Aromatic, Ayurvedic, Thai, Balinese, and Swedish Massage, Oriental Foot
Massage, Back Massage and so on.
2. Abu Dhabi Ladies Club. Men
are not allowed! Abu Dhabi Ladies Club is the only spa centre in the
city where full range of services is offered on the spot: treatment,
cleansing, restoration, nourishment and rejuvenating and decorative
cosmetics application. Within a couple of hours specialists of Abu
Dhabi Ladies Club will make you look and feel like a queen using toning
massages, anti-stress and vitamin masks. They will also take care of
your hair, nails and even make-up! The most popular Abu Dhabi Ladies
Club ritual is a 50-minute massage for pregnant women. It is especially
good for women suffering from sudden blood pressure fluctuations and
headaches while pregnant. And if you look for a doctor who offers
treatment without injections and pills, then you should attend a
session of reflexology. It is based on Oriental teaching according to
which our palms and soles present maps of the body: they might provide
information on body condition and diseases and reveal diagnosis.
Massage of some points can bring full recovery. Unfortunately, only
ladies and boys under 7 years of age can visit Abu Dhabi Ladies Club
and enjoy its luxury.
3. CHI Spa. Every customer has got an
element of his own. After taking a bath in Himalayan lakes at the
luxurious Shangri-La Hotel, Qaryat Al Beri will strike imagination of
even the most experienced spa-goers. The philosophy of this wellness
center is based upon the teaching about 5 elements, which have an
impact on human health: Metal, Air, Water, Tree, and Fire. Therefore,
prior to a spa-treatment, CHI spa specialists determine the customer's
prevailing element and only then start a procedure. Real CHI Spa hits
are the following: Bath with water from Himalayan lakes, Rosehip and
Honey Microdermabrasion Facials with mineral salt from the mountains.
4.
Zen Spa. Life should be easy! Zen in Sanskrit means "unsubstantial,
weightless". This is exactly how one feels after being treated at Beach
Rotana Hotel and Towers Zen Spa. It is famous for its "dhara" treatment
when a flow of milk and oil goes slowly upon the forehead. This
treatment brings complete relaxation of conscious and subconscious.
People say that dhara wipes off sorrowful memories. Spa guests are also
offered sessions of meditation and color therapy when through different
colors harmony in their inner and outer selves is achieved. After
"spiritual" procedures the body is taken care of with herbal baths,
massages from head to toe and mud wraps. VIP customers are accomodated
in VIP-parlours with Jacuzzi and a terrace.
5. Body & Soul
Health Club. Harmony and Care. The Body & Soul Health Club
Spa-center is located at Danat Resort Jebel Dhanna Hotel. Spa guests
are offered traditional Arab beauty and health treatments: sauna with
several steam rooms and pools filled with cold, warm or hot water,
Jacuzzi with heated sea water, sandy-honey and seaweed facials. Caring
staff will give understandable and accurate instructions on the proper
use of hammam, treat you with relaxation massage and apply a nourishing
mask to your hair. And your hair will shine as silk - guaranteed!
