Full Spa Review by Julie Register

Description: Located at Columbus Circle, Mandarin Oriental, New York has breathtaking views of Central Park, the Hudson River and the sparkling lights of Midtown and beyond. As part of the new, mixed-use Time Warner Center, the hotel is situated in the center’s north building, 280 feet above ground, and ideally located near some of the city’s best shops, restaurants, performance centers and of course, Central Park.

Treatments: Guests are encouraged to arrive a minimum of 40 minutes prior to their scheduled treatment and fully immerse themselves in an oasis of heat and water located in separate men’s and women’s areas. During this period of preparation, the guests have time to acclimate to the philosophy of the spa, as well as experience the following heat treatments: Amethyst Crystal Steam Room (Designed to induce mental peace, tranquility, inspiration and meditation, this relaxing steam room channels the healing powers of an amethyst crystal that serves as the centerpiece for the room. Subdued colored lighting and the infusion of fragrances enhance the soothing environment. Temperature is maintained at 107 to 114 degrees and is moist heat.) and The Vitality Pool (Designed to aid in the relaxation of tired and aching joints, the pool contains a selection of hydrotherapy body jets, a floor jet and reclining “air bed” lounge with jets to gently massage the entire body. Up to four guests at a time can sink into the depths of the 96.8-degree soothing pool.). The spa provides a complete “journey of the senses” that are booked in blocks of time called TIME RITUALS. Designed to restore one’s natural state of equilibrium, guests need only communicate their likes and decide how they would like to feel after the experience. Highly skilled and attentive therapists access what is best for each person. The Spa’s TIME RITUALS are performed in harmonious stages: Welcome, Purify, Nurture, Balance and Bliss. The amount of time booked determines how many phases can be experienced, and to what extent. Each personalized treatment incorporates holistic rejuvenation techniques complemented by Asian-based rituals. Signature treatments include: Mind & Body Treatments (Chakra balancing with hot stones, Purva Karma four handed synchronize massage, Ayuravedic influence massage and more); Ultimate Body Wraps (The detoxifier, muscle relaxer and energy booster wraps among others); Mini Rituals (Jet lag eliminator, muscle relaxer, contour & firming and more), Rituals (Abhyanga, Dosha specific Ayuravedic wraps and more), Facials – Age defyer, skin brightener, re-hydrator, aromatherapy and more; ( Express Treatments – Back massage, full-body massage, facial, manicure, pedicure, waxing and more).
