A new spa ritual designed to promote feminine wellness, ease menstrual discomfort and improve blood circulation has launched at The Ritz-Carlton Hong Kong.
The 90-minute Ladies Wellness Therapy treatment begins with the application of a Womb Wellness mask on the guest’s lower abdomen, topped with a soothing heat patch. The treatment duo is claimed to improve blood circulation to relieve period pain, relax muscles to ease cramps and encourage lymphatic drainage in the pelvic area.
Therapists then turn guests onto their front to conduct a 40-minute massage focusing on the upper back, lower back and pelvis to stimulate lymphatic drainage and relieve any tension caused by wearing bras, desk-working and standing up for too long.
Following this, guests turn to face upwards, have the womb mask removed and receive a 30-minute breast meridian massage inspired by Traditional Chinese Medicine, to remove toxins, encourage lymphatic drainage and provide lifting and firming effects. The ritual is completed with a 20-minute visceral abdominal massage to relieve any lingering tension. The spa team explained to Spa Business that the treatment is rooted in the experiences and acquisition of knowledge from a specialist in female health, concentrating on womb and breast wellness techniques.
Off-peak prices for the treatment start at HK$2,530 (€280, US$325, £236) per person, while peak-time pricing increases to HK$2,700 (€298, US$347, £252).
Following the treatment, guests are invited to unwind in the 11-treatment-room spa’s relaxation spaces or hydrothermal areas. The spa is located on the hotel’s 116th floor and overlooks Victoria Harbour offering impressive panoramic views.
