The Desert Palm Hotel & Resort in Dubai has opened its new spa, which houses an apothecary-style Aromatherapy Bar by Tisserand.
The spa includes six treatment rooms, a steam room, sauna, ice room, cold plunge pool, heated beds and chrome therapeutic showers, with the spa journey beginning with a homeopathic consultation to determine the needs of each guest and the most suitable essential oils for their treatment.
Other spa partners have been curated and include Hungarian skincare experts Eminence Organics for facials and Irish seaweed skincare brand Voya for detoxifying body treatments.
A Vitajuwel water counter serves water that has been energetically charged through the powers of crystal healing. Signature treatments include a 150-minute session – a purifying journey designed to combat ageing effects, nourish and cleanse with seaweed and microgreens, combining full body exfoliation, a hot stone ritual, massage and a facial. Signature packages range from half day to full day. These include a deep tissue or Swedish massage and a body polish or an express cleansing facial along with complimentary pool access and lunch in Epicure restaurant. “We are delighted to provide a platform for our guest’s individual self-renewal and restoration,” said Marina Kutskaya, spa manager. “Time is a luxury in everyone’s life today and it’s important to spend time taking care of yourself in an environment that is free of toxins for both mind and body.” Located in the main house of the polo estate, all six treatment rooms overlook the polo fields
