Chi, The Spa – Shangri-La’s signature spa brand
– has officially opened in Australia..
The Chi spa at the Shangri-La Hotel, Sydney,
features six private spa suites and offers guests more than 24
treatments based on authentic natural healing methods found in
traditional well-being practices by many Asian cultures. A
spectrum of Asian wellness massages, body therapies, facials and
Chi journeys are available to guests like Chi Balance, Du Mai Back
Therapy and Chi Healing Stone Massage.
Another unique feature is the Sense of
Place experiences featuring indigenous treatments inspired by
Australia’s natural ingredients such as lemon myrtle and
eucalyptus. With roots set in the Chinese theory of the Five
Elements of metal, water, wood, fire and earth to harmonise the
body's energy, the treatment oils used in all therapies are
customised to each guest’s element sign, which is expressed by
personal preferences in tastes, colours and daily living.
In traditional Chinese philosophy, Chi or qi is
the universal life force that governs well being and personal
vitality. For people to maintain good health, it is believed that
Chi must flow freely within the body and, when blocked, disease
and illness can follow. Body massage, exercise, stretching,
hydrotherapy, and movement of the mind through relaxation and
meditation combine to assist the body's natural renewal and form
the basis of the Chi spa philosophy.
Each of the six suites provides guests with
their own private changing area and an aroma steam shower to enjoy
before treatments. Three of the suites, overlooking the
world-famous Sydney harbour, feature infinity edge spa tubs for
relaxing soaks.
“We are excited to bring Chi to Australia,
offering guests a unique spa concept inspired by Asian principles
of harmony and balance to complement the legendary Shangri-La
hospitality. Chi perfectly complements the hotel’s newly
refurbished health club, equipped with a state of the art
gymnasium and an indoor swimming pool,” said Franz Donhauser,
general manager of Shangri-La Hotel, Sydney.
