Holiday Time
At the Millenium Hilton Bangkok, everything is ultra-contemporary, as too is their spa concept, which intends to lead you to 'emerge brighter'. eforea spa has come up with a series of their own spa escapades, offering 'the essentials journey', 'the escape journey' and 'the men's journey'. The former comprises technologically advanced treatments, while the escape journey is a set of holistic experiences with nourishing organic plant extracts and traditional healing practices. The men's journey, as the name suggests, is a combination of re-energising treatments specifically designed for gentlemen, although they too can enjoy many other treatment menu items. The aim of these journeys is to provide a sense of balance and well-being for the body, encompassing a blend of the best of organic, natural and science. eforea spa promises to take guests "on a transformative journey of the senses, helping you to emerge brighter".
The essentials journey offers a selection of luxurious facials, for exfoliation, deep cleansing, firming, rejuvenating or for delicate treatment of sensitive skin. To improve congested, sun-damaged, lightly wrinkles and unevenly toned skin, the Signature Correcting Facial comes with or without the application of Microcurrent technology for increased results, and is a 90-minute results-oriented treatment of the face, neck and de{aac}collete{aac} (3,200Baht). There is also a choice of full body treatments, including jet lag recovery, a scrub, a wrap and the After-Sun Rescue, each for 60 or 90 minutes.
The eforea Signature Full Body Repair is also a 90-minute treatment that takes on the entire body from tip to toe. It packs in quite a number of elements in a short space of time and runs through a half-day's worth of treatments in an hour and a half.
Designed for today's busy modern lifestyles, it can feel somewhat rushed, but is ideal if you are short on time and looking for a quick fix from your head to your feet. The processes are apparently synchronized to music, to heighten the sensory experience.
A cup of herbal tea is served in the light and airy spa reception, where you fill out your customer information and advise of any areas you particularly need attention to or prefer to avoid.
Then, you are lead to your treatment room by your therapist, undress and find yourself face down under a massage sheet.
The first phase is a therapeutic and gentle salt scrub, which is infused with the eforea signature oil. Together with the sweeping massage motions, this is set to begin soothing muscles and releasing any blockages in your body's energy flow. You are swiftly aided to the shower to rinse away the salt, then back on the table for the body and head massage. Before the head massage, the body is wrapped in towels, after heated healing rose porphyr stones are placed in the hands, which radiate and counteract the chill of the air-con. A facial and eye treatment follow, topped off with a warm foot treatment, and before you know you are changing back into your outdoor clothes and being guided back to the relaxation area for more tea and a cookie. This quick fix-all is 3,500Baht, and is quite the speed-spa experience.
The escape journey is also made up of various facial, body and hand treatments, as well as massages, from 60 to 90 minutes, including the Tandem Massage, synchronizing the work of two therapists at once. This one-hour massage is priced at 3,200Baht. Exceptionally, the men's journey has a comprehensive array of face, body and massage treatments too, which is often not the case in many other spas, where frequently only one or two treatments are specifically created for the metro-man. For busy gentlemen in need of a fast remedy, there is a variation on the eforea Signature Body Repair, which includes the De-Stress men's facial treatment, for 90 minutes at 3,100Baht.The De-Stress Facial strives to cleanse, smooth, hydrate and rejuvenate.
Whether face, body or massage treatment, there are,furthermore, additional add-ins, also available to enhance the experience and results you seek. With such items as a vitamin C ampoule, a multi-acid peel, a chitosan mask or a bio-matrix sheet, if you are baffled by the science of it all, then you can ask the spa receptionist for details and recommendations on what is right for you, your needs and your skin type.
Gift certificates, ideal for the gift-giving season, and membership packages, for die-hard spa fans, are also on offer and for all details, as well as reservations, simply call 02 442 2297-98. eforea spa is open daily at the Millenium Hilton,sandwiched between the banks of the Chao Phraya River, accessible by courtesy boat, or by taking Chareonnakorn Road.At eforea Spa, there are eight indoor treatment rooms, two treatment suites with private sauna and steam, and a Vichy shower room,in addition toa relaxation lounge and a separate salon that offers nail services.
