A Personal Touch: The Chuan Heavenly Jing Lao Signature Treatment
My journey began with the Chuan Heavenly Jing Lao Signature treatment, a personalized experience tailored to my individual needs. My therapist, Ernestina, expertly guided me through the treatment using Earth element products, based on my answers to the health questionnaire. The Earth element, associated with the muscles, spleen, sense of taste, and late summer, was perfectly aligned with my needs.
A Journey to Equilibrium: The Power of Foot Treatment
The Chuan Heavenly Jing Lao treatment focuses on the feet, a vital part of the body in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Ernestina explained that the treatment aims to promote equilibrium by optimising blood and Qi flow, using acupressure, pressure point massage, and lymphatic drainage.
A Tranquil Oasis: The Treatment Room
The treatment room, a haven of serenity, was spacious and comfortably furnished with Asian-inspired décor and flickering tea lights. The massage table, with its luxurious bed-like comfort and crisp cotton sheets, was a perfect invitation to relaxation.
A Sensory Experience: Earth Element Products
The treatment commenced with a foot cleanse and gentle inhalation breaths, setting the stage for a transformative experience. The Earth element products, including geranium, frankincense, and fennel, filled the room with a soothing aroma.
A Detoxifying Ritual: Herbal Paste and Warm Towels
The therapist applied a detoxifying fresh herb paste to my feet, followed by a gentle wrapping in warm towels. The heat and aromatic herbs worked their magic, preparing my body for deeper relaxation.
Releasing Tension: Gua Sha Style Arm Massage
While the herbal paste worked its magic, Ernestina expertly massaged my arms using circular, sweeping, and almost scraping moves, incorporating gua sha techniques to increase circulation and energy flow. The deep pressure targeted the fascia, releasing tension and promoting a sense of well-being.
A Journey to Deep Relaxation: The Foot and Leg Massage
After the herbal paste was removed, the treatment continued with a thorough leg and foot massage, a truly indulgent experience. The therapist used a variety of techniques to stimulate circulation along the meridian channels and apply pressure to specific acupressure points.
A Sense of Calm and Serenity: The Contemplation Lounge
The treatment concluded with a peaceful retreat to the Contemplation Lounge, where I was invited to relax, enjoy a seasonal elemental tea and fresh berries, and reflect on the transformative journey I had just experienced.
A Unique and Unforgettable Experience
The Chuan Heavenly Jing Lao Signature treatment was a unique and unforgettable experience. The focus on the feet, often overlooked in full body massages, addressed a crucial aspect of overall well-being. The treatment left me feeling wonderfully calm, relaxed, and happy.
A Sanctuary of Luxury and Wellbeing
Chuan Spa at The Langham is a true sanctuary of luxury and wellbeing. From the personalized treatments to the luxurious facilities, it offers an exceptional experience that caters to your individual needs and leaves you feeling revitalized and renewed.
