Indigenous ingredients and locally inspired treatments are offered alongside international brands and a broad variety of traditional, classic and new spa treatments.
Bamboo Massage, The Spa at Four Seasons Resort Costa Rica at Peninsula Papagayo
The property’s most natural massage. Known for its healing properties, freshly cut bamboo is used in this deep pressure massage to reduce tension, relieve tightness in muscles and tendons, and stimulate the flow of blood and lymph. Body and mind are naturally healed.
Cherry Blossom Champagne Body Treatment, The Spa at Four Seasons Hotel Washington, DC
The ultimate in wraps. First, the body is gently exfoliated with a dry brushing, then immersed in a deep soaking tub. Next one’s body will be polished with an all natural Champagne and salt scrub. A relaxing body wrap follows and the treatment concludes with an application of luxurious body butter that seals in moisture, leaving the body feeling pampered and renewed.
Four Seasons Ultimate Facial, The Spa at Four Seasons Hotel Las Vegas
This facial harnesses an ancient health and beauty phenomenon called Mineral Cosmetology. More than 2,000 years ago, Mineral Cosmetology was created when the curative properties of Hungary’s thermal waters were first discovered and the famous baths were built. Using these natural ingredients from Hungary’s thermal waters, this facial takes anti-aging skincare to a new level. What makes this anti-aging facial unique and progressive is that an additional element is added with the use of cutting-edge microcurrent technology that lifts, tones and contours the face while improving the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Hawaiian Healing Wrap, The Spa at Four Seasons Resort Maui at Wailea
An island tradition, this healing wrap begins with a tropical pineapple papaya enzyme polish, to naturally exfoliate and soften the skin. The body is then soothed with a healing gel of Hawaiian noni and gently wrapped with warmed ti leaves. While wrapped, guests experience a deeply hydrating hair treatment with warm coconut and kukui oils and a warm-stone face massage with pineapple papaya lotion. This lush ritual is completed with a deeply relaxing full-body massage using pineapple papaya lotion.
Uruguayan Luxury Wine Retreat, The Spa at Four Seasons Resort Carmelo, Uruguay
The powerful antioxidants found in genuine Uruguayan wines, combined with the relaxing massage techniques used by Four Seasons therapists, are the essential elements of this pampering treatment. A soft scrub made of wine extracts will remove traces of dull skin, then a grape body wrap designed to improve elasticity will leave the skin glossy and smooth. A light- to moderate-pressure massage will be performed at the end of the treatment to soothe sore muscles and balance blood circulation.
5,280 Gemstone Relaxation, The Spa at the Four Seasons Hotel Denver
When situated exactly 1 mile (5,280 feet, or 1.6 kilometres) above sea level in Denver, it takes time for one’s body to adjust to the altitude. This massage uses long strokes and medium pressure. Combined with a blend of gemstone Azurite oil infused with herbs, this massage naturally promotes deep relaxation and eases tension from the body and mind.
Diamond Luxury Lifting Facial, The Spa at Four Seasons Hotel Istanbul at the Bosphorus
This world-class anti-ageing treatment is designed to reveal rejuvenated skin. Combining shiatsu massage and mio-facial lifting with the gentle caress of aromatherapy, the treatment's exclusive ingredients penetrate the deepest layers of the skin to redefine the face with intense hydration and regeneration.
Gold Facial, The Spa at Four Seasons Hotel Firenze
This treatment combines ancient beauty secrets with modern technology and Florentine tradition. Gold, one of the most precious metals in the world is also recognised for its beautifying properties. In this luxurious facial treatment, gold and other premium ingredients work to firm skin, reduce wrinkles and give golden glow, with results that are immediately visible.
Tropical Magnolia, The Spa at Four Seasons Hotel George V Paris
Created by Sodashi exclusively for Four Seasons, this luxurious and deeply relaxing massage is completely chemical free. Designed to work holistically to nurture the skin and enhance overall well-being, the experience is nourishing, emotionally uplifting and delivers digestive benefits to help one relax. Ideal after long travels and for jet lag, this is a very healing, enriching treatment.
Kahaia Haven Ritual, The Spa at Four Seasons Resort Bora Bora
A two-hour treatment that restores inner balance with this life-embracing treatment, ideal to be shared with a loved one in the double treatment rooms. The skin-smoothing body treatment begins by cleansing with naturally exfoliating Kahaia body scrub, legendary Tahitian black pearl powder, and the native fragrant vanilla. Once skin is prepared, an exquisite massage of choice is given. This experience is concluded by a holistic and de-stressing Water & Light express facial to enhance relaxation.
Night Spa, The Island Spa at Four Seasons Resort Maldives at Kuda Huraa
Guests relax beneath the stars in the Night Spa's torch-lit lounge, then indulge in one of four open-air lunar rituals devised by Sodashi to attune the body to nature's rhythms. Each lunar ritual is best enjoyed when linked with the corresponding lunar phase. The lunar rituals are: Reflect, Nourish, Harmonise and Release.
Sodashi Crystalus Massage, The Spa at Four Seasons Hotel Sydney
Sodashi, a Western Australian botanical product line, created the Sodashi Crystalus Massage exclusively for The Spa at Four Seasons Hotel Sydney – a 90 minute ritual using warm crystals and aromatherapy oils. This uniquely Australian treatment uses ancient healing stones and crystals all derived from the heart of the land. The massage crystals work deeply into the muscles to relieve physical tension. The powerful properties of the crystals have a harmonising effect to re-balance and relax the entire body. The Tiger Iron crystal is one of the most energetically grounding stones and emanates a strong calming flow of life force energy.
Caviar and Pearls Anti-Ageing Facial, The Spa at Four Seasons Hotel Damascus
Experience the natural benefits of caviar and pearls. Caviar extract is rich in repairing proteins and provides immediate anti-ageing benefits, pearl extract improves skin elasticity while hydrating and repairing, and Escutox, a natural vegetable extract with similar effects to Botox on a topical level, rejuvenates and rehydrates.
Child of the Earth Ritual, The Spa at Four Seasons Resort Seychelles
This grounding ritual pays homage to gris gris, an herbal healing tradition once widely practiced by Seychellois medicine men and women (known as bonhom/ bonfem du bois – man/woman of the woods). Incorporating frangipani, cinnamon, coconut, vanilla, wildflowers and crushed herbs, this medley of eight hair, body and food treatments uses the natural bounty of the surrounding forests to balance and strengthen from head to toe.
Thousand and One Nights, Le Spa at Four Seasons Hotel Marrakech
A signature ritual designed uniquely for Le Spa at Four Seasons Marrakech embracing the culture and the plants from mother earth. This signature ritual begins with incense to celebrate the human connection to the earth. Next, a saffron, garnet and rose scrub is applied using lymphatic drainage techniques, the body will be treated to an orange flower wrap and the hair will be moisturised with a mask. This exclusive ritual finishes with an Ananda facial and an application of Le Spa’s signature oil of rose, jasmine and neroli.
