Clandestine Cure
Ever hear the one about the Four Thieves? As legend has it, four men from Marseilles, perfumers by trade, looted the homes of sick villagers during the Great Plague of the 17th century. But here's the thing: None of them caught the disease! When they were finally arrested, the thieves' "sentence" was to reveal the secret to their immunity — a mystical mix of lemon, clove, cinnamon bark, eucalyptus and rosemary now known as Four Thieves Oil.
Fast forward 400 years or so, and Four Seasons Hotel Hampshire has developed an exclusive wellness treatment that zaps the winter blues and taps into the healing properties of the oil, arming guests with a flu-fighting shield.
The 90-minute Thieves' Secret treatment begins as you settle into a cozy room inside The Spa's historic 18th century stable block. First, a comforting and strengthening blend of grape seed and Four Thieves oil is massaged into your entire body to stimulate the immune and respiratory systems. Next, warmed castor oil is worked into your scalp to boost circulation and nourish your tresses. Finally, you'll receive a reflexology-style foot massage, to ensure you're tingling from your head to the tips of your toes.
Don't let winter steal your good health. Book your Thieves' Secret treatment at Four Seasons Hotel Hampshire and make out like a bandit.
