The 828-metre Burj Khalifa and dancing Dubai Fountain make up the
stunning vista which can be seen from the loungers in the ladies
relaxation room of the spa which is housed on the 13th floor (lucky for
some!) of this five-star hotel. Stepping into the spa from the searing, summer heat you’ll find
yourself in cool, contemporary luxury. And better still, the spa is offering a
30 per cent discount on all facials, wraps and scrubs during a Ladies Morning
which will run from 10am-2pm from July 1 until September 30, 2010 (excluding
weekends and public holidays).
 |
You can indulge in a facial, that is tailor made for your skin,
and restore your radiance with a purifying body wrap or a polishing intense body
scrub - ideal for hydrating dry skin at this time of year.
The spas two signature treatments include: ·
• Restore at The Address (£180/Dhs995)
This two-hour massage helps deep-seated tension and muscular
stress. The treatment starts with skin brushing, exfoliation and a facial
cleanse. Vital energy points and Chakras are then massaged with a tailored blend
of oils and hot volcanic stones to restore energy to the body. A de-stressing
head massage then restores balance and equilibrium.
• Rejuvenate at The Address (£180/Dhs995)
During the foot cleansing ritual the therapist will conduct a
consultation to identify your specific needs. A salt and oil scrub follows
before warmed oils are poured onto your body and used for an intensive massage.
A heated body mask of either oshadi clay, marine algae or mud are then smoothed
on and the body cocooned. An acupressure facial massage helps to revitalise the
skin and it finishes with a luxurious head massage - bliss. Once you have been
restored and rejuvenated you will be fit to hit the designer stores in the
nearby Dubai Mall which is, of course, the largest in the world!
