Background briefing
Launched in 1872 in Tokyo, Japan.
Main services
For over 140 years and still unique today,
Shiseido is the fruit of an alliance of Eastern
traditions and philosophies combined with
Western science and technology. We offer our
spa clients state-of-the-art and results-driven
facial and body treatments, based on unique
and traditional elements from the Japanese
Qi method – meaning the flow of energy.
The creation of Shiseido’s exclusive method
in 1986 concentrates on the Meridian flow,
restoring vital energy and stimulating Tsubo
pressure points. When combined with the use
of Shiseido skincare products, it fully optimises
their active ingredients to beautify the
skin. Oshibori, Japanese hot towels made of
woven cotton, are applied regularly during
the treatment to provide a voluptuous sensation
of warmth and to enhance the overall
pleasure of deep relaxation.
A Spa Senses Menu is also presented
to each guest who embarks on a Shiseido
spa treatment, so they can choose their
very own scent, music and refreshment.
Aroma breathing allows the client to fall
into a deep rhythmical state of relaxation.
The treatments conclude with Shiseido’s
signature ’awakening technique’.
Additional services
We have a strong emphasis on spa marketing
and create bespoke spa marketing tools that
really do drive the hotel/spa business.
Training is provided at a very high standard
and therapists are taken on a complete educational
journey, not only regarding product and
treatment services but also client communication
and service, sales skills and client journey
fl ow techniques, in order to strengthen the
overall spa performance, both from a business
perspective and for client satisfaction.
