Wuhan spa gets ready for launch
The finishing touches are being put to a spa at The PuYu Hotel & Spa in Wuhan, China.
The 332-bed hotel launched at the end of November and has a gym, indoor pool and pool lounge, three restaurants, two bars, a ballroom, function room as well as seven meeting rooms and a business centre.
The 2,700sq m, designed by A.W. Lake and Layan, has 10 treatment rooms, sauna, steamroom, manicure/pedicure salon, relaxation and retail area, a foot massage room, as well as rooms for the speciality treatments: Ganbanyoku, Akasuri and an enzyme bath.
Akasuri is a Japanese treatment which starts with a brief visit to the steamroom or sauna, to soften the skin in preparation for a scrub. After a loofah scrub removes the dead skin, there is a restorative hot oil massage.
Gabanyoku is “hot stone bathing without hot water”. Clients lie on a stone platform and feel the benefits of infrared rays and negative ions, which pass through the ganban stones to improve circulation, relieve stiff joints and back pain. Combined with a wrap, it is good for detoxification, weight loss and metabolism.
“This is a pioneering urban spa,” says spa manager, Sunny Zhang. “We offer culturally inspired and cutting edge Asian water treatments, results-driven face and body therapies, and interpret time honored traditions in a modern, but classically designed, fully equipped spa.”
