Kickstarter Project Launched to Create Bathhouse Made from Shipping Containers

Natural Personal Care Market Shows Strong Growth The natural personal care market continues to show strong growth after posting a 10.6 per cent increase globally to reach US$29.5bn at the manufacturer’s level for 2013. The information was revealed in a study by research firm Kline, analyzing industry trends, market size and growth within the global natural personal care market. On brands, Aveeno and Bare Essentials led in the United States, Saishunkan in Japan, Chando and Inoherb in China, and Yves Rocher and Oriflame in Europe.

Wellness entrepreneur Nell Waters is trying to raise US$240,000 to make the project happen, with the SOAK facility being designed by Frisco-based studio Rebar. The bathhouse has been designed with ecological principles in mind that would allow the facility to operate separately from municipal power and water supplies, while also being capable of moving to a host of different cities. The plans have been put together around a courtyard idea, where stacked containers will house a lounge, sauna, hot tubs and a roof deck, along with changing rooms and toilets.

中国水疗业务形态报告 中国的水疗在这些年和中国的其他 奢华服务型产业一样，经历了不愁 没客人的“朝南坐”时期，到现在 的必须要为在竞争中生存、并为持 续良好发展而拼搏 高菲文

S

paChina在分析2013年度获得的行业信息和市场调研后，上期杂 志已经公布了《中国水疗高端消费者报告》，着重于分析消费 者在水疗与养生方面的消费需求、喜好和消费能力等，并从中 国特殊人文角度提出了一些观点。本期则从行业业态，与其展 示出来的一些问题着手，阐述与探讨目前的行业现象。

近年来的中国的水疗行业可以说经过了较大的转折，部分遭受了“洗

牌”；部分转型并与一些其它如酒店经营、医疗科技、化妆品代理、器材生 产等业态合并，令整个水疗行业的业态也产生变化。

起步、发展与调整 2000年至2007年，以城市水疗为主的水疗业主们，从各自起家的美 容、美发、按摩、健身等行业，在水疗行业的市场需求趋势之 下，开始逐步将SPA植入到现有业务，追求的是提升目前的业务 含金量和品牌形象，尽可能“肥水不流外人田”，来引导对健 康和美丽有进一步需求的客人产生更进一步的消费。这些水 疗业主们，为中国现代水疗行业的兴起做了很大的贡献。 上期登出的调研结果和水疗行业的发展事实也证明： 在中国，高、中、低这三种层次上的消费者们，对放松解 压、养生和维持美丽，都有着很大的需求。因此，在酒店 水疗以“奢华养生与水疗”的感觉进驻中国之后，中国 的城市水疗业主们也完成了从小规模美容美发等业务经营， 向注重品牌、符合市场定位、有发展规划的水疗产业的华丽转 型，成功地占领了低、中市场与部分以中国消费者为客户的高端 市场。 2008年至2012年，上述既有水疗业态已经成熟，在中国的房地 产市场发展中积累了一定资金的城市水疗业主们，尝试了扩张业务， 涉足医疗水疗，或并购医院，组织业务和资源整合，积极谋划上 市，以追求水疗业务的产业化。但也因此，有部分业主高估 了行业潜力，忽视了水疗业务的最终成功细节——坚实的 服务性价比与稳定的人力资源，隐患暗藏。 在2013年，反腐迫使奢华产业缩水，一些水 疗中心也开始发生扩张后遗症。如：选址失误而 造成业务状态差，人力资源短缺；开业期间一次

People Interview

| 人物专访 machine. The brand has been in China for over ten years, in some of the most prestigious properties. People associate it with quality. It has stood the test of time. We listen to our guests and we keep one step ahead of the trends. We avoid fads and what we do, we do well.

What do you think about China market?

I think that the China market has evolved greatly over the years. It’s far more sophisticated. In addition to this, it’s my belief that Chinese spas have come into their own style.

They no longer need to imitate spas of old from the West. They have their own identity.

Chinese spas are social places. In the west they are retreats. In the past, the West has adopted Asian and Oriental therapies to offer in their spas. I foresee that the West will once again look East to evolve their spa concepts as havens of inclusiveness as oppose to reclusiveness.

How many brands are there under the MSpa brand?

MSpa operates seven brands, and owns and/or operates 50 spas in 11 countries: 1. Mandara (in China and Thailand) 2. Anantara Spa (globally) 3. Per Aquum’s Lime Spa 4. Elemis Spa at St Regis Bangkok 5. Avani Spa 6. Aequalis in Korea 7. The Individually Tailored Spa Collection

How do Hotel / Resort Spas compare with Day Spas and what is appealing about each?

A hotel spa offers a reprieve for hotel guests.

As a business model you have a ready-made clientele at your fingertips every day from the occupied rooms in the hotel. It adds value to the overall experience of the guest. It can afford to be lavish. It may choose to top up its business with guests from outside the hotel.

This is easy in a city where the population is abundant. However, if a hotel spa is in a resort, it will rely entirely on in-house hotel guests for its clientele.

A day spa generates its business from the local community. It needs to attract new business from its surrounding residents and most importantly it needs to retain that business by generating loyalty. In order to do so, a day spa often has a more complex identity and will incorporate many angles of the health and beauty industry. For example a hotel spa can afford to be pure in concept and complement the hotel brand. In China, in particular, a hotel spa’s clientele has a higher percentage of male guests who usually chose a basic oil massage. A day spa will need to be more focused on beauty, anti-aging & slimming treatments, hairdressing, nail bars and cater more and more to woman. Today, we see that the percentage of female clients is higher in day spas than it is in hotel spas.

How do you view the brand value and how do you maintain brand quality?

Mandara is a constant, it’s not trendy and modern, it’s also traditional and it’s a well-oiled

What are the key points for successfully managing a spa in a city hotel or a destination resort?

It’s imperative that each hotel’s General Man-

ritish-born Spa veteran Lee Stephens began his 21-year career as a stylist onboard the luxury liner QE2, and since then Lee has travelled the globe many times and has specialized in the luxury Spa and Wellness fields. Based in Hong Kong and Southeast Asia for 11 years, Lee has held a number of key roles within the industry. In 2009, he established Sol Spa Services, his own successful spa consultancy and product distribution house in Hong Kong. Prior to establishing Sol Spa Services, Lee oversaw the operations and business development of some of the most recognized spas and skin care centers in Hong Kong and was instrumental in the growth of the spa division for the Paua Group.

Any project he undertakes benefits from his solid understanding of cultural diversity and accrued years of travel experience. In 2012, Lee was appointed as General Manager of MSpa

International and he leads MSpa’s continued growth in the region and beyond. SpaChina took the opportunity to interview him.

tages: the growth of the Chinese Spa market is incredible, the demand increases year on year as more and more city dwellers look for a retreat and a place to recharge. The opportunities are endless. Chinese consumers are savvy and adventurous. The technological advances in Chinese Spas and Beauty salons is the envy of its peers. The disadvantages: increasing costs, under qualified and over promoted staff and a tarnished reputation marred by sex workers in massage establishments.

Mandara Spa at Sheraton Sanya Resort

ager works closely with the Spa Manager to achieve success. If you look at a typical career path for a General Manager, they usually have a Food and Beverage, rooms or front office background. There are very few GM’s who have come up through the ranks from a spa division background. Therefore some GM’s have little or no experience with spas and it can be something that they are afraid of. My advice to all hotel Spa Managers is to educate your GM on the intricacies of your business.

Allow him or her to experience what you offer through the eyes of the guest.

Spa managers must be included in hotel briefings and have a good foresight on the hotel business. When is the hotel busiest?

Who’s arriving today, tomorrow, this week?

Who are the guests that I must meet personally upon their arrival to introduce myself and the spa? These are just some of the questions that a hotel spa manager needs to be asking every day. So many spa managers never get to see an arrivals list and some don’t even know their hotel occupancies.

The key to success in a hotel spa is to measure the following drivers. What is your hotel occupancy? Do you have enough therapists on hand to deal with demand and avoid turning people away? Are your front desk people fluent enough in the language of your guests and the language of spa? Do your spa guests only have oil massage or do you know how to sell your unique spa experiences and your Signature

Treatments? Do you manage the peaks and troughs of your business? Most important is communication.

What are the key points to attracting and retaining spa employees?

Spa staff can be fickle, with the boom in the spa market therapists are a hot commodity.

Spa staff salaries in China have increased by almost 50% in recent years. It makes spa business more difficult to keep profitable. The cost of retaining an existing, trained therapist is far less than sourcing, recruiting, on-boarding and training a new therapist. Often existing businesses can’t compete with the higher salaries that are being paid in the many new luxury hotel spas that are opening in every city. This creates a problem where staff are jumping from new hotel to new hotel.

We try to avoid this by focusing on the career path development of our therapists, we train them to the highest caliber and we create a real sense of family and community within our spa teams. It’s not easy but a high percentage of our spa associates have been with us for more than ten years. We allow our associates to fly the nest if they need to. Inevitably they return a few years later and we welcome them with open arms.

What are the advantages and risks of doing business in China?

This is an easy question to answer: The advan-

From your point of view, who are the core spa goers in China? Why? This is a difficult question to answer as the demographics and psychographics of the Chinese population are so diverse. I think to answer this question you need to define what is spa in China. Broadly speaking, every person in China has had a foot massage but whilst you would consider a foot massage as a spa treatment, you wouldn’t necessarily classify every patron of a foot massage shop as a spa-goer.

In addition you would have to segment Day Spa from Hotel Spa and Beauty Salon, from Massage Parlor etc. I would say that the savvy Chinese Spa consumers expect to see and feel immediate results. There is sometimes a misconstrued opinion that the more aggressive the therapy the better the result. As I mentioned earlier, the Chinese consumer wants to be included and not secluded and they’re not afraid to be the first to try new things.

What impact will Chinese consumers have on the global spa industry?

A friend of mine recently talked to me about collective consciousness of people. I believe that Chinese people are becoming very conscious consumers. Conscious about what they eat, conscious about how they treat their environment and how they are perceived by others.

Conscious about the lasting impact that their ferocious appetite has on their surroundings.

Chinese consumers treat spa as a necessary part of their life, a consequence of working hard and playing hard in the fast-paced cities that are booming. The outbound Chinese tourist is also at the forefront of everyone’s mind.

They’re re-writing the rules on spa-going and they are changing them every day. This year, there will be more than 100 million outbound Chinese tourists who will visit spas and resorts all over the world. International spas are consciously adjusting their spa offering to cater to this new phenomenon. I know that we are, and our spas outside China are, proving to be a real hit with our Chinese guests.

The next step is we create a concept and identity relevant to the location and provide a sense of place for the guest experience. Communicating the concept and operational needs with the architect and the interior designer will ensure the facility can operate seamlessly. 9-12 months before the opening, we begin working on the operations, recruitment etc. A capable, diverse Spa Director is key to establishing a successful operational blueprint.

aving started her career as a spa therapist and director with Steiner Transocean Limited, Worldwide, Niamh E. O’Connell first joined Hyatt in 2004 as the Spa Director, Grand Hyatt Plateau Spa in Hong Kong, and was appointed Area Director of Spa Operations Asia Pacific in 2006. In 2010, she relocated to the United States, assuming the role of Vice President of Spa at Hyatt’s Global Corporate Headquarters in Chicago. Her heart in Asia, Niamh returned to Hong Kong in late 2012. Her experience in the spa industry at all levels gives Niamh unique insight into the global spa industry, its current status as well as emerging trends. SpaChina interviewed Niamh to share her knowledge of the spa industry.

Can you share your opinion on the spa business in China?

The spa business has certainly progressed in China over the past seven years. The evolution of spas includes facilities, operations, the consumer and most importantly the staff. China is developing at an exponential rate, but unfortunately one of the challenges we face is that only a very small percentage of consumers are developing their spa treatment requirements at the same rate and there is lack of qualified personnel.

What do you think of the progress of the spa business in recent years?

There has been significant development of the

spa industry in the last seven years. Consumers globally have a much stronger sense of wellness and are more pro-active in improving their lifestyles.

As highlighted in “Top 10 Global Spa & Wellness Trends” published by Spa Finder， 82 % of travelers seek spa/massage when travelling.

SpaChina’s “Report on China High – end Spa Consumers” confirms that China’s upper middle class suffer from high levels of stress, and this is evident within Hyatt Spas operations as we are seeing a higher level of repeat local guest seeking wellness & relaxation- trying to escape the day to day pressure of modern China.

What do Chinese guests want to get from a spa experience?

As I travel frequently, I observe what the Chinese guest seeks within Hyatt Spas. There are several common denominators: • Assurance of professional therapist • Attentive service • Quality product (skincare) • The desire for space • Solitude • Deep level of relaxation.

What are the key facts for working out a successful hotel spa in China?

At Hyatt Spas, we commence new projects 36 months before opening. This allows us time to conduct feasibility studies, determining loca-

Research shows rich and upper-middle class Chinese spa goers preferring hotel spas; do you see this trend in the Hyatt group?

Yes. I believe this is related to branding. The consumer has a perception of a brand, generally they forge a link with a brand that they can identify with or aspire to. There is a service/experience expectation based on previous experiences within the brand that ultimately determines consumer loyalty.

What are the key preparation tasks to launch a new hotel spa?

We follow a 12 month pre-opening period for the operations. The key components are communication amongst the project and operations teams.

What is the greatest challenge to open a new spa?

I believe the challenge, which is not unique to Hyatt Spas, is manpower. As there is a very limited number of internationally recognized spa schools, qualified therapists and experienced directors are scarce. At our spas, we encourage internal development of our associates. We create a clear career path for them, supporting them to achieve their goals. The benefit is to have an associate well-versed in our operational standards, procedures and expectations.

How about your views on the future development of the spa business in China?

Spa & wellness will continue to develop in China. Increasingly sophisticated consumers will ultimately raise the bar of the whole industry. Manpower is the key for future success of spas within China and the current shortage of qualified employees needs to be addressed to ensure future growth.

Also day spas in China tend to have a lot of franchise stores, which is quite conducive to exploring the huge potential of the market.

Urban dwellers in China need day spas, which are much like an urban oasis near their home or office, to relax their body and mind.

An interesting trend is that enterprises are now opting to entertain their clients at spas. That is to say, spas are replacing traditional banquets and golf courses, to become an important venue for high-end business people’s entertainment and social networking after business meetings.

MBA from Shenzhen University and a contributor to chain management education in the beauty industry for 10 years, Mr. Luo has created a series of courses named Golden Potential Study, Golden Consultant Study, and Golden Shop Manager Study, and developed 50 training disks named "The System for Golden Team Morning Training in 365 Days" in collaboration with his colleagues. With keen insight and abundant experience in management theories and methodologies, Mr Luo has frequently been the recipient of awards from relevant industry associations.

SpaChina talks with him about the weaknesses and strengths of China’s day spas.

How do you view the current status of China’s day spas?

China has a strong demand for day spas. Most of China’s day spas grew out of beauty salons.

Some were founded by spa experts or spa lovers who once lived abroad. Today’s urban dwellers are quite used to day spas located within highend office buildings, shopping malls as well as middle and high-end residential communities.

How about the scale of China’s day spas?

As a newly-emerged industry, day spas in China are constantly on the rise. Statistics show

that currently there are at least 150,000 spas and beauty clubs, offering about two million job opportunities. And the potential for market expansion is still huge. Development of spa and beauty clubs plays a critical role in advocating local economic development, enriching residents’ cultural life and improving local people’s livelihood.

According to the survey, about 100 spas and beauty clubs play outstanding leading roles in the industry, and account for the vast majority of turnover and profit and half of the taxation generated by all the respondent companies.

From my point of view, spas combine a tranquil and elegant environment, cozy and considerate services as well as exquisite and professional treatments. It has become a new favorite in the 21st Century’s wellness and leisure sector in China. It has been acclaimed as “an ultimate embodiment of physical and mental beauty”, and spas have now attracted an enormous number of fans, which if viewed from another perspective, reflects the status quo of the fastpaced and highly-pressured life of China.

What are the strengths of China’s day spas?

Strengths: a large customer group. People are transferring from simple beauty and healthcare practices to spas that cover a much wider

What are the weaknesses?

The weaknesses of China’s day spa mainly lie in the lack of highly-qualified staff. The spa industry needs relatively excellent practitioners with multi capabilities. Today’s guests are constantly exposed to high quality services offered by international brand spas, so their expectations on treatment and service quality is also on the rise.

Urban spas are still in the primary development stage in China. Relevant talent and management systems still need to be improved.

Also, most highly-acclaimed day spas located in metropolises like Beijing, Shanghai and Shenzhen lack nationwide brand influence.

Besides, day spas cannot rely solely on special interiors to serve customers’ long-term requirements, which is now common in China.

I have visited enormous day spas located in city centers with luxury decoration and a strong commercial air. But they are not really a relaxing oasis, but rather a replica of high-end office buildings, the battlefield of wits. In fact, secluded and tranquil garden spas are what really touch urban dwellers’ hearts.

Do day spas do well in China?

Currently, spa treatments aiming at relaxation often fail to generate repeat visits and hardly provide a long-term selling point. Holistic spa wellness solutions are gradually attracting customers to visit regularly. Therefore, to change the operation model and effectively manage customer resources is the key for day spas to maintain good profit.

How to Be Successful in China

The right team, a simple menu, unique selling points, awareness of targeting consumers’ needs, and a soft opening to guarantee a successful opening: are you ready to be successful in China? By Sara Codner

Rome, do as the Romans do. In other words, it is imperative for an inter-

national spa brand to have local aspects built into the design and treatments. Yet, it is equally important to stick to the brand’s original heritage. At Mandarin Oriental, Guangzhou, we pride ourselves on our Oriental Heritage. As Guangzhou is described as a “Garden City”, we have incorporated these elements into our design and treatments. The Spa at Mandarin Oriental, Guangzhou has been designed around the five Chinese elements, Fung Shui and aspects of old Canton. It’s crucial to find the right balance, which is also why we have a very strong design team.

Personalize Your Services Amid severe competition in the spa industry, making sure your guests feel cared for and respected is not only an effective way to excel in the market, but also an irresistible development trend. By Sophia Patel

A

s all kinds of spas and beauty salons have surged in recent years, the spa world is witnessing increasingly severe

competition. Although the spa consumer population in China has seen outstanding growth in the past three years, it has been accompanied by increasingly sophisticated consumer concepts and behavior, which means that spas in China are facing more demanding and cultured guests with high expectations of treatment and service quality. How to secure an edge amid the severe competition and live up to guests’ high expectations? The answer is personalized service.

What Direction for Chinese Hotel Spas Although the vast majority of Chinese hotel owners and managers have realized the necessity of a spa within their properties, the future of Chinese hotel spas is not yet clear. By Lily Tan

A

spa is like the crowning jewel for a hotel. Large hotel groups worldwide with destination or resort properties are now all making an effort to develop a proper spa. They have realized that a good spa helps attract travelers and holiday makers, and is a necessary virtue of star-rated hotel.

China is also following this trend. More and more Chinese local hotel spas have emerged in recent years with their own special features and traits. Compared with international ones, most local hotel spas in China tend to be simpler in their room combination and arrangement. A typical local hotel spa treatment room often has treatment beds, en-suite toilet and shower, but few have hydrotherapy pools or equipment due to cost and complexity of construction.

Common services offered at local hotel spas are TCM treatments, foot massage, oil massage and “CaiBei”. Facials play a small part in such spas. The most common water therapy is Chinese herbal baths for foot or body. Many try to slip in the Thai/Indonesia protocol of flower baths and essential oils but from my observation most fail to get it right.

Rechargeable membership cards are quite popular at local Chinese hotel spas, whereby members are required to prepay a certain amount of money and can enjoy spa services at a discount sometimes up to 70%. But it is quite rare in international brand hotel spas.

Most of these spas tend to have an in-house trainer graduated from TCM School, and the spa manager’s role is watching the overall business and carrying the responsibility of PR and sales. The operation hours are very much like many day spas, which depend on how late the guests want to stay; staff often get used to working longer hours because they get commission from each treatment they perform. Usually, the full-time staff have lower basic salary but higher commissions, compared with the international hotel brands. Some of the local hotels hire freelance therapists to fill the peak hours.

Major competitors of Chinese local hotel spas are large bathhouses, hot springs, and

massage parlors which offer treatment at a low price. Most of these operations have at least a minimum of 15 to 100 rooms and can hold 20 to 500 people at the same time. Generally, hardworking therapists with relatively good techniques can earn 2-3 times more than that of a hotel spa therapist. These venues also offer various activities and social space for guests so they don’t mind waiting when no therapist is available.

Running a spa by itself is not easy for a local hotel in China. So, a lot of Chinese hotel owners chose to rent out the spa area 2-3 years ago, and many day spa brands have seized this opportunity to open their branches in hotels.

But, Chinese local hotel spas who want to develop a fine spa should pay special attention to below points: • Respect “spa branding & concept”. Simply copying from others will lose identity and focus.

• Understand that most spas are an enhancement to the hotel and its services. Invest logically and within the affordability of their target market.

• Hire the right employees. Invest in training.

• Instead of thinking of the spa as a burden, use the spa as a tool to help sell a more beautiful

and unforgettable experience to the guests.

• Never isolate the spa from the hotel operation. Require the spa manager to attend hotel briefings and meetings so that the department can plan their own staff duties better.

Nourish the Lungs to Combat the Haze The Traditional Chinese Medicine system guides you to resist the haze and retain your health.

By Doctor Dai Jiongjie

O

ur ancestors warned us that “winter and autumn haze is murder”. The recent air quality deterioration in many cities of China has intensified people’s concerns about hazy weather particularly in autumn and winter. The visible yet impalpable smog is a formidable threat to health, particularly harmful to the heart and cerebral vessels and respiratory system. Nowadays, people suffer from chest distress, cough and asthmas with increasing frequency. A lot of families and companies have purchased air purifiers as a health protection tool. And some cities have suffered from supply shortages and price increases for air purifiers.

How can we prevent and combat the smog on our own? Did our ancestors offer us any effective and applicable methods to fight against smog using the traditional Chinese medicine system? Let’s start from the human being’s basic behavior of “breathing”.

Breathing is one of the body’s instincts. A normal adult breathes 16 to 20 times per minute when the body is in quiet condition. Therefore, in a day’s total 1,440 minutes, our body breathes above 25,000 times to support our life.

Hazardous substances invades our body via the 25,000 breaths. As the only respiratory organ, the lungs serve as the first protective screen to resist pathogenic factors. Since we can’t control our breathing, nor can we prevent the smog from entering our lungs, the best we can do is to improve the lungs, elevate their immunity and detoxifying capabilities. As a TCM doctor, I would like to introduce solutions in the traditional Chinese medicine system.

TCM considers lungs to be the most critical of all the internal organs of the body; but the tender lung lobe is vulnerable to cold, hot, dry and damp conditions and tends to be attacked by exogenous pathogenic factors; thus it is also called “fragile lung” in Chinese. The throat is the gateway to the lungs; the nose is its outer representative. That means the lungs conduct their breathing function via the nose and throat. One of the key functions of the

lungs is governing qi through the whole body, regulating its increase and decrease as well as its entrance to and departure from the body. It also controls dispersing outward and inwards.

The former refers to the qi of the lungs dispersing the essence of water and food through to the whole body and regulating water metabolism via sweating and breathing to discharge negative qi from the body; the latter means breathing in pure natural qi and guiding its flow in the body to eliminate extraneous matter in lungs and the respiratory tract, and to deliver impurities and turbidity generated by internal organs’ metabolism to the bladder, and then discharge them from the body in the form of urine to keep the body clean. We call this process detoxification.

Traditional acupuncture and TCM fumigation work well to improve the lungs. I once came across a young male patient who didn’t wear a mask in a smoggy day, which gave him a sore throat, cough, chest distress and asthma when he got home. After applying acupuncture at acupoints like Taiyuan, Zhongfu, Kongzui, etc of the lung channel of hand-Taiyin, he felt much better that very night. He then continued to take TCM drinks, including parsnip, liquorice, poria cocos, ginger, isatis root, scutellaria baicalensis, honeysuckle and Platycodon grandiflorum, etc. to further dispel the wind, nourish the lung and detoxify.

A new TCM technology named “microinvasion catgut embedding therapy” can also improve the functions of the lungs. This new technology adopts a special apparatus to implant a kind of high-molecular polymer polydioxanone (PPDO for short) to some particular acupoints for disease treatment and prevention. The subskin absorption process of PPDO continuously stimulates the acupoints until it gradually hydrolyzes and is metabolized after two weeks. In SuWen, one of China’s time-honored traditional Chinese medical works, it marked: if the disease is prolonged, retain the needle for a longer time; if patients suffer from arthritis in muscle, retain the nee-

dle for a long period, heat will gather. These are the earliest theoretical bases for acupoint catgut embedding therapy. Several chronic bronchitis patients who were treated by this therapy have their frequency of cough and asthma reduced outstandingly and the symptoms eased considerably. Meanwhile, application of this embedding therapy to acupoints of Tsusanli, Hegu and Feishu can help strengthen lung function to resist the negative effects of haze. A new method of acupuncture therapy, micro-invasion catgut embedding therapy, reduces patents’ visits to the doctor, increases the stimulating power of the treatments and lessens patents’ fear for acupuncture. But the first and foremost advantage is its outstanding and long-lasting treatment effect.

The health of the lungs is closely related to the skin, Su Wen also recorded: “Qi of the meridian and collateral assembles in the lungs, the lungs connect all vessels and deliver energy for the skin and hair, and nourish the hair”, which stresses the dispersal and transport functions of lung qi. Skin and hair can disperse lung qi to regulate breathing. Another Ancient Chinese medical work named the Huang Di Classic of Internal Medicine, named sweat pores in the skin as “Xuan Fu”, which is also called “gate of qi”. It justifies that skin, hair and sweat pores not only discharge sweat, but also serve as the venue for the body’s internal and external qi exchange. After being hit by smoggy weather, people often suffer from dry and itchy skin, some even get acne breakouts and infected skin, which are all the result of the external foul qi blocking the hair follicles and sweat glands. Most people try to solve the problem by skincare products, which is inadvisable. Because nourishing the lungs shall be the first step of skincare and is a method that treats both symptoms and root causes.

The smoggy weather problem can’t be resolved within a short period. Thus to improve the body’s functions under doctors’ guidance and to prevent smog’s harm to the body from its root causes is the optimal choice.

such a way that the house must win, and the customers, overall and over time, must lose.

And people who go to Macau only to gamble are missing out on some significant traits, and depths of richness both culinary and cultural that are rarely found elsewhere in the world.

The phenomenal growth of Macau's gambling industry in the past two decades has attracted some of the world's biggest casino and hotel operators, and the hotels and resorts that are on offer to visitors are without any doubt some of the finest in the world. The facilities that they offer, obviously including spas, are in the same category.

But let us begin with the history and the culture of this unique place, and then come back to the hotels and spas.

Macau's importance was dramatically eroded after the first opium war in the early 1840s, when Britain founded the colony of Hong Kong which became the center of commerce for foreigners on the south China coast. It was almost

Spa Suites at Mandarin Oriental, Macau

M

andarin Oriental, Macau is the only five-star hotel in Macau which is not involved in the casino industry. It focuses on a comfortable stay with detail-oriented design and features that are elegant and an environment that is private. For business or family travelers who love quiet and luxury, this hotel is the ideal place to stay.

As part of the prestigious mixed-use complex, One Central, and with a prime location in the heart of Macau’s entertainment and highend retail center, Mandarin Oriental, Macau is just a few minutes’ walk from the historic heart of the town. The hotel boasts panoramic views of Taipa Island, west Nam Van Lake, Macau Tower and the hills of the South China coastline.

The hotel lobby is understated and exquisite as all guests can check in at their guestrooms and the front desk only focuses on greeting and seeing-off guests and consulting. The details in the rooms are also impressive: the walk-in wardrobe replaces the wardrobe to facilitate the guest’s clothes changing; in addition to the 480-thread count silk & cotton sateen sheet sets, non-allergenic pillows are offered; a yoga mattress is ready for yoga lovers in each guestroom; the TV set can be switched to five languages and the remote controller for the overall audio-visual system can be operated easily. Such humanized guestroom design greatly increases the stay comfort, hotel exquisiteness and distinctiveness.

The hotel recently launched a very popular and family-friendly package, called “Science Adventure”. (The room rate starts from MOP2,888 and is subject to 10% service charge and 5% government tourism tax.) A family

(two adults and one child) will have one night accommodation in a luxurious guestroom or suite and enjoy the tantalizing buffet breakfast at the 108-seat Vida Rica restaurant with panoramic views of the South China Sea and Nam Van Lake. After breakfast, they can visit the Macao Science Center where they can go to the Exhibition Centre to see the exhibitions or go to the Highest resolution 3D Planetarium to watch 3D Dome Show/3D Sky Show. Finally, the exclusive gift pack valued at MOP100 will be given for free. It is really wonderful!

The Spa at Mandarin Oriental, Macau covering 8,900 sqm is another highlight of the hotel.

The eight treatment rooms are designed with Mediterranean-inspired blue and red hues highlighting Macau's entwined Asian and colonial heritage. The spa offers treatments and products from Mandarin Oriental’s Signature Spa Therapies which have been developed in consultation with specialists in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and master aroma therapists.

In addition, two signature treatments have been developed to celebrate the unique cultural mix of Macau. Hereinto, the Macanese Dragon Experience (Mop1,800/2 hours on weekday; Mop2,050 /2 hours on weekend) is a treatment honoring Macau’s Chinese heritage and combines a stimulating body scrub with lymphatic body massage and “Bao-Ding” meditation balls. 澳门文华东方酒店 Mandarin Oriental, Macau 澳门外港新填海区孙逸仙大马路 Avenida Dr Sun Yat Sen, NAPE, Macau Tel: +853 8805 8888 www.mandarinoriental.com.cn/macau

What’s the ideal menu in your mind?

Chef Wong Wing Keung: A menu that carries local characteristics yet combines modern cooking methods and presentation. The dishes can demonstrate the sophisticated techniques of the culinary team but add some personal characteristics to it.

Where is your favorite place in the restaurant?

Chef Wong Wing Keung: In Yee Tung Heen, my favorite place is of course the kitchen. I feel relaxed when using my wok, the stove, the pan, just everything inside. Also, after I work, I like to clean my wok inside and out, including the bottom of the wok. I always believe it is a respect to my utensils. I call them working partners.

ocated on the second floor of The Excelsior Hotel, Yee Tung Heen brings the finest authentic Cantonese cuisine to Hong Kong. It has modern Chinese décor and a cozy atmosphere. The entrance features a dramatic and contemporary artistic bamboo pattern in red and black, while the interior’s floral-patterned partitions can be used to divide up the floor space, creating five separate private dining rooms from the main dining hall.

The restaurant has a comprehensive menu ranging from cold appetizers to hot soup, live seafood and a wide selection of poultry and meat.

Also, if guests have any dietary preferences, they can change the ingredients in certain dishes to cater to different needs. “Our service team and culinary team work closely together which helps delivering customers’ first-hand comments from service team to culinary team for continuous improvement. On the other hand, the culinary team discussed their dish concepts and cooking methods to the service team so they can explain details to customers easily,” Chinese Executive Chef Wong Wing Keung told us.

Sweet and sour shredded eel and bamboo pitches stuffed with fish maw and Jin Hua ham in pumpkin sauce (HK$498) is one of the signature dishes in the restaurant. Remove the bone and cut into slices; the eel is marinated then deep fried. Finish with a sauce made of Zhenjiang vinegar and Chinese wine sauce; the eel is crispy with a little sweet taste. Paired with stuffed fish maw slice, Jin Hua ham slice and spring into bamboo pitch, the dish is much more delicious.

In addition, Yee Tung Heen has new seasonal dishes every month. Sauteed lobster with egg white and shrimp essence, steamed sliced bean curd with crab meat and mushroom in supreme sauce and supreme sweetened red bean soup - 25 years vintage dried tangerine peel, Japanese red bean are from the lastest a la carte menu. These dishes rely on high quality ingredients as well as the sophisticated techniques of chefs, such as cutting thin sliced tofu or making an egg white and shrimp essence.

An Innovative Presentation of Chinese Cuisine

s a distinguished and stylish Chinese restaurant in Shanghai, Shàng-Xí on the 2nd floor of Four Seasons Hotel Shanghai in Pudong is sure to be at the top of the list.

Guests enter the restaurant via the elegantly decorated reception area and are greeted by a wide mosaic corridor. The hand-painted sick wallpaper is extremely eye-catching, and also helps generate a pleasant air. The embedded ceiling features an image of a sea of clouds, a symbol of prosperity, longevity and auspiciousness which echoes the overall atmosphere of the restaurant.

Moving into the restaurant, five distinguished and intimate dinning spaces named respectively after “Pearl”, “Amber”, “Agate”, “Jade”, “Purple Jade” accentuate the artistic use of the space. The Chinese Executive Chef, Hong Kong-born Simon Choi, is particularly specialized in redefining classic traditional flavors. Therefore, both the Cantonese and Shanghai cuisine offered here are a combina-

tion of tradition and innovation.

Steamed Shrimp Dumpling with Black Truffle (RMB28/person+15% surcharge) is a signature dish that gains enormous acclaim.

While enjoying this delicacy, first bite slightly the thin and crystal dumpling wrapper, the fragrance of the black truffle and the fresh shrimp pour out, but also linger to stimulate diners’ appetite. Then a slight bite of the shrimp to mix its juice with the black truffle, and you will feel the mellow taste spreading fast in your mouth, leading to a warm and pleasant feeling in your stomach.

Chef Choi also pays special attention to nutrition and the health of the food. Double-Boiled Sweetened Whole Pear with Black Berry Pearl (RMB68+15% surcharge) is a healthy and nourishing delicacy particularly good for eating in Spring. It can nourish the Yin, moisten dryness, clear the heat and moisturize the lung, and is one of Shàng-Xí’s most popular desserts.

持续发展创新理念 Progressive and Professional Development Concept

By Alice Wang

成

立于1999年，MBR品牌总部位 于德国萨克森州的施雷玛温泉疗 养中心，一个闻名于世的治疗性

矿泉疗养小镇。现今，MBR的专业产品在全 球15个国家有售，包括德国、荷兰、瑞士、 奥地利、捷克、波兰、俄罗斯、法国、土耳 其以及中国台湾等。而中国，是品牌近年来 最看好的市场。 作为药物护理先驱，MBR唯一的目标就 是不懈追求最佳护肤效果。在研发产品过程 中不计成本，十个研发团队可自主决定是否 加入某种活性成分，也可以自主的决定如何 改善配方。因此，他们有时会加入极为昂贵 但疗效显著的成分，并且在不超过肌肤耐受 剂量的情况下，尽可能的浓缩活性。 更为难能可贵的是MBR秉持持续发展、 创新的理念，持续利用全球先进技术与资 源。如果活性成分的更新换代有助于提高产 品的功效，就不断地优化产品组成。换而言 之，即使MBR的客户从不关注美容行业的最 新发展动态，也可以享受到最先进最前沿的 研究成果。MBR的“持续发展计划”得到了 专家的认可，为了让最新研究成果在最短时 间内进入市场，服务消费者，产品的成分信 息是标在灵活取用的贴纸标签上，而不是印 刷在包装上。 春季是美白的大好时节。MBR美白精华 素是一款富含净白胜肽(β-White™)的精华 素，能有效均匀肤色，带来莹透亮白肌肤。 有效成分净白胜肽(β-White™)是一种最前 沿和高效的专利美白成分，由不同胜肽结 合而成，能抑制黑色素的生成，针对孕斑、 色斑、雀斑均有强力淡化效果，只要短短 28天就能看到惊人美白效果。它主要作用在 MITF上。MITF是负责酪胺酸酶基因转录的 因子，指挥酪胺酸

蛋白2(TRP-2)。专利净白胜肽(β-White™) 以调整色素生成的路径为目的，阻止产生黑 色素。 最有效的成分，最优化的产品配方，这 就是MBR缔造的最佳护肤效果。

F

ounded in 1999, MBR is based in the state-recognized therapeutic spa town of Bad Schlema in Saxony, Germany.

Currently, its products are sold in 15 countries or regions, including Germany, Netherlands, Switzerland, Austria, the Czech Republic, Poland, Russia, Italy, France, Turkey, and Taiwan. China is the brand’s most promising market in recent years.

As the pioneer of medical skincare products, the goal of MBR is always to achieve the best possible results. Guided by this principle, consideration of the cost of the formulas essentially plays no role during development. The members of the MBR development team are completely free to decide on any active ingredient combinations and formula variants. As a result, even some very expensive ingredients can be added to the product and the highest possible concentrations of ingredients for optimal skin compatibility are used.

A more valuable aspect is that MBR adheres to the professional and progressive development concept and continuously takes advantage of the global advanced technology and resources. If the upgrading and replacement of the active ingredient is conducive to improving the product efficacy, MBR development teams will constantly optimize the product ingredient combinations. In other words, even if MBR customers never pay attention to the latest development trends in the beauty industry, they can still enjoy the most advanced and cutting-edge research results. MBR’s professional and progressive development plan is recognized by experts. In order to let the latest research results enter the market in the short-

est time and serve customers, the composition information of the product is indicated on the sticker labels which can be taken down or stuck on flexibly instead of being printed on the packaging.

Spring is the best season for skin brightening. MBR Skin Lightening Serum is rich in β-White™ and corrects uneven skin tone to reveal a brighter, more glowing complexion.

Its effective ingredientβ-White™ is the most advanced and highly effective patented brightening ingredient. It consists of different peptides and can inhibit the melanin generation and therefore reduce pregnancy spots, pigmentation and freckles. You will see the breathtaking skin-brightening effect in as little as 28 days. It mainly acts on MITF which is one factor responsible for tyramine genetic transcription and commands phosphatyrosin kinase to take part in a series of melanin formation and also adjusts other enzymes which affect the melanin generation such as TRP-1 and TRP-2. β-White™ prevents the melanin generation by adjusting its generation route.

With the most effective ingredients and the most optimized formulation, MBR achieves the best possible results. 广州新欧记元贸易有限公司 Guangzhou FBT Co., Ltd 广州市广州大道南448号财智大厦21楼 2112室 2112, Choice Plaza 448 South Guangzhou Avenue, Haizhu District, Guangzhou China Tel: +86 20 8420 0780 Email: infor@mbr-cosmetics.com.cn www.mbr-cosmetics.com.cn SpaChina • 2014 | 83

fter a cold winter’s torture, many people are bothered by dry skin. BIODROGA with its intense moisture formula will infuse abundant water and make the skin moist and glowing instantly.

BIODROGA intense moisture formula contains precious madecassoside, which is a strong moisturizing ingredient extracted from Madagascar tiger grass. Madecassoside can activate filaggrines and quaporines in the cells. Filaggrines, a kind of protein formed during the cornification process, can strengthen the stratum corneum structure and the skin’s natural protective film so that more water can be retained. Quaporines were discovered in 1992, and the discovery was awarded the Nobel Prize. Existing between the cell membrane, quaporines can transport up to 3 billion water molecules every second, providing an important channel for water exchange and supply.

In addition, BIODROGA intense moisture formula adds other ingredients to supplement and store water. Codiavelane from Brehat Archipelago, France is rich in polysaccharides and minerals, which can provide water deep into the skin with immediate and lasting moisturizing effect. Focogel® is extracted from corn and soybean. It will improve water content, smooth fine lines and promote moisturizing. β-glucanes produced from fungi is a natural polysaccharide, playing a role of gathering and storing water. The formula also includes Amazon rainforest passion fruit oil, rich in linoleic acid. It can maintain and stabilize skin’s protective film, prevent water loss and leave the skin soft and smooth.

BIODROGA intense moisture range includes IMF 24-hour Care for Moisture-defi-

cient Skin, IMF 24-hour Care for Moisturedeficient Dry Skin, IMF Eye Care for Moisturedeficient Skin and IMF Basic Moist Light Moisturizing Fluid. IMF 24-hour Care for Moisture-deficient Skin is for oily skin and neutral moisture-deficient skin. IMF 24-hour Care for Moisture-deficient Dry Skin adds avocado oil on the basis of the former. It can further moisturize the skin and reduce peeling which is specially for very dry skin. These two products can be used in combination. You can use the first product in the daytime and the second one at night, to achieve intensive moisturizing effects.

IMF Eye Care for Moisture-deficient Skin will remove fine lines around eyes caused by lack of water. IMF Basic Moist Light Moisturizing Fluid is of high concentration. Suitable for all skin types, it will reach the deep skin and make the skin as smooth as silk. 大昌洋行(上海)有限公司 DKSH (Shanghai) Co., Ltd 上海浦东东方路710号汤臣国际大厦3层 3/F Tomson International Commercial Building, 710 Dong Fang Road, Pudong, Shanghai Tel: +86 21 5081 8379 Fax: +86 21 6876 2221 E-mail: claudia.zhu@dksh.com www.dksh.com

arine beauty specialist THALGO draws the secret of keeping healthy from different countries, matching it with marine active ingredients. It recently launched the new “INDOCÉANE” treatment (RMB1,180/135 mins), and just like travelling around the world, from the Mediterranean and Egypt to India and China, it will release stress while nourishing the skin.

The first stopover is the Mediterranean.

Spread INDOCÉANE Sweet and Savory Scrub: Apply all over the body and add some warm water with circularly swirling so that the scrub can completely dissolve. Wash it off after 20 minutes. This Mediterranean scrub mixes thick sea salt, rounded brown sugar and several kinds of silky orange oils together. It can remove dead skin cells, purify and nurture the skin. At the same time, the aroma of lemon, green orange and grapefruit essential oil will relax the nerve.

Then, the “Precious Milk Bath” (30 mins) will bring you to Egypt. Put INDOCÉANE Precious Milk Bath Sugar into the heated water.

It will instantly become a luxurious milk bath.

The milk bath contains unique marine essence and Nile lotus ingredients, which will give the skin a silky smooth and crystal-like glow.

Different kinds of aroma added into the milk sugar will let you enjoy a savory experience. At the beginning of the bath, you’ll be welcomed by the smell of cistus and orange blossom.

Then you’ll be surrounded by the fragrance of musk and amber. Just immerse your body in the warm mellow bathtub and enjoy the milk bath that was Cleopatra’s favorite.

After that, 45 minutes of “vital relaxation massage” inspired by Ayurvedic tradition and herbalism will start your trip to India. The massage combines beating, kneading, rubbing and Indian strokes, to relax nerve tension and reduce muscle stiffness & pain through stimulating the sacrum, solar plexus and wrist joints.

THALGO Voluptuous Massage Oil is used to perfect the massage. It provides ocean minerals and herbs such as Indian sandalwood, cedar and patchouli. These ingredients will jointly energize your body, detoxify, kill bad bacterium and improve immunity. When it’s nearly finished, gently press the skin with THALGO QI-Balm, a kind of massage cream, with crodamazon oil to further relax the body.

Finally arrive in the old yet modern China.

The therapist will put THALGO Silky Smooth Body Wrap on the body and keep it for 20 minutes. Shea butter and rice germ oil in the body wrap will intensively nourish and hydrate the skin, turning the skin as smooth and beautiful as the velvet. The slight fragrance of violet, iris and jasmine will make you feel warm and pleasant. Then just wiping off excessive products is okay.

At the end of the journey, you can’t help recalling the experience while tasting the flower tea. The heart is deeply filled with happiness and satisfaction. Yes, how beautiful and harmonious the world is! 总代理：北京法晨贸易发展有限公司 Beijing Fachen Development Co., Ltd 北京朝阳区东三环中路59号 富力双子座A座1003室 Suite1003, Building A, FuliShuangzizuo, Middle East 3rd Ring Road, Chaoyang District, Beijing Tel: +86 10 5864 5099 +8613910699569 上海徐汇区襄阳北路108号 嘉华中心会所3层 3/F, K.

JOY ESPA

A Functional Life Beauty Center

F

The tempo of work and life is very fast in big cities so functional beauty has become the latest beauty development trend

unctional beauty is usually divided into medical beauty and functional life beauty. The former uses multiple means, such as medical grade lasers, RF and injection to dramatically improve the body and facial skin condition under minimally invasive or noninvasive circumstances and thereby helps keep the customer’s youthful look or shape his/her body. The latter uses high-tech instruments such as cutting-edge laser and radio frequency etc. as well as electro-optic technology to resolve different skin problems. Combining with professional medical skincare products, it offers integrated skin maintenance and care. But many people are reluctant to try the former as it is risky due to involvement of injections and minimally invasive techniques. The latter still belongs to the life beauty field. It is milder and safer than the former and sees quicker results than the ordinary treatment in the traditional life beauty center or spa. Its advantage is obvious. Hence, in the modern society advocating the high efficiency, functional life beauty centers have become more and more popular.

JOY ESPA has been established at the right moment. JOY ESPA is the life beauty brand under Florisa Medical while the latter is the reprehensive body of Syneron which is listed on the NASDAQ and is the largest aesthetic medical company in the world. Syneron develops and promotes a series of products and services based on el s™ technology. Its exclusive and patented el s™ technology is the first and only technology that simultaneously harnesses the power of both bi-polar radio frequency (RF) and optical energy (either laser or light). It ensures absolute safety while doubling the product’s efficacy.

Once the product is available on the market, it quickly meets the tough requirements of dermatologists and plastic surgery doctors worldwide by its significant clinical efficacy and high customer satisfaction.

JOY ESPA is becoming the leading brand of functional life beauty centers, relying on Syneron’s innovative medical aesthetic equipment, the world’s leading medical skincare brands such as skincode from Swiss as well as the international state of the art beauty treat-

ment technology. It offers quick, safe and efficient solutions regarding the skin problems in different skin layers. Meanwhile it provides humanized service, and an elegant and comfortable spa environment.

JOY ESPA has nearly 100 outlets in China, located in the downtown area of big cities and managed and operated by the HQ in a unified way. Each outlet has the same decoration style and service quality. The treatment rooms may differ by the occupancy area of each outlet but all the outlets can satisfy the daily functional skincare demand of members. The wide outlet distribution lets you enjoy superior beauty service anytime anywhere.

JOY ESPA’s treatments include brightening, anti-wrinkle and firming, acne treatment and hair removal, slimming and body shaping. Its signature treatment elure Skin Brightening Care can quickly and safely create a bright and fair skin tone. It utilizes elure skin brightening products and eLight™ equipment during the treatment. elure skin brightening products are the only range of comprehensive and scientific products that are based on naturally occurring enzyme formulation, Melanozyme™ to brighten the skin appearance. This patented formula creates a powerful solution that gently yet quickly diminishes the appearance of stubborn discoloration

By Alice Wang

while correcting uneven skin tone to reveal a brighter, more glowing complexion. Compared to other products in the market which generally brighten the skin by reducing the generation of melanin, this product line has been clinically researched and found to provide much faster and more effective appearance improvement.

Clinical studies showed that the skin of subjects become brighter when used for 7 days and a significant decrease in their Melanin index was demonstrated when used for 28 days. eLight ™ is the highly effective facial treatment system produced by Syneron. Clinical studies show it is very safe and can be applied to different skin types and skin complexion.

It is based on el s™ technology, which combines various energies and makes full use of the efficiency of bipolar radiofrequency, light energy and diode laser. It delivers highly effective results for shallow spot treatment.

Highly effective brightening product elure with cutting-edge American electro-optical skincare equipment as well as the professional operation of beauticians will create a bright and glowing complexion quickly for you. One thing worthy of note is that no side effects such as redness or burning feeling are caused after the treatment. Skin dryness and skin peeling generated by traditional whitening products is also prevented. 美悦荟ESPA 上海浦东新区东方路969号中油大厦10楼 1002-1012 Room 1002-1012, 10F, Grand SoluxeZongyou Plaza, 969 Dongfang Road, Pudong, Shanghai Contact person: Lucy Yu Email: lucy.yu@florisa-medical.com Tel: +86 21 5892 0766 www.joy-espa.com 美悦荟ESPA联洋广场店 Joy ESPA Store at Lianyang Square 上海浦东新区芳甸路13-37号联洋广场A区 1楼138室、B1楼036室 Room 138 on 1st Floor Area A and Room 036 Building B1, Lianyang Square, No. 13-37, Fangdian Road, Pudong District, Shanghai Tel: +86 21 6236 1886 SpaChina • 2014 | 95

he Excelsior Hong Kong, built in 1973, is located in the Causeway Bay shopping area on a plot of land that was first auctioned off in the early 1840s, when Britain first took control of the island of Hong Kong. The famous “noon-day gun”, traditionally fired to help ships keep time in the days before iPhones, is located opposite the hotel. The hotel is now owned and operated by Mandarin Oriental.

As one of the most famous hotels in Hong Kong, The Excelsior enjoys a fantastic location overlooking the fascinating Victoria Harbor. Surrounded by the shops and nightlife of Causeway Bay, the hotel is only a half-hour’s walk from busy Central district, and 40 minutes by train to the airport.

The Excelsior offers 34 floors perfectly equipped with state-of-the-art facilities and equipment necessary to providing the best and most cozy stay. All rooms feature great beds, high-speed internet connections, and desks with ample space, all conducive to the needs of the business traveler. Room service is available on a 24-hour basis. And 75% of the 885 rooms overlook Victoria Harbor, providing stunning sights, including the lovely yachts parked at the Royal Hong Kong Yacht Club below.

The hotel is a big facility within easy reach of key locations, and itself contains many attractions, including famous bars and restau-

rants, some of which feature live entertainers.

You will always find it easy to deal with the hotel staff. They are approachable and can help you get the best out of their services. Customers are their main concern.

Hong Kong is known as the “Culinary Capital of Asia” because you can eat anytime and anywhere. Shopping districts include Tsimshatsui, Causeway Bay and Mongkok. There is a wide array of restaurants which you can visit and discover many sumptuous and fabulous delicacies.

But as part of the perfect trip, you must try the delicious food at The Excelsior Hotel Hong Kong.

Whether you are looking for the great atmosphere of the interior or the great views, don’t miss the alfresco food and live performance entertainment at ToTT’s Roof Terrace, and the Cantonese cuisine and dim sum at Yee Tung Heen.

For important meetings to one-time occasions, The Excelsior Hong Kong provides the setting as well as the service for a successful event. Three event spaces with four smaller meeting rooms are able to catering to up to 600 delegates, including weddings and any kind of business event.

Also, make sure you take time to relax and unwind in the well-equipped wellness area with the State-of-the-art Fitness Centre. The Sauna room including steam rooms is a really wonderful experience for anyone.

Urban Retreat

M

etropolitan cities offer us endless conveniences and vanity, but they also encourage a busy and stressful life without peace of environment or mind.

Urban Retreat reserves a private, tranquil and natural oasis amidst the concrete jungle for us to enjoy. Distinguished from the metropolitan ostentatious and gaudy style, Urban Retreat focuses on all natural elements in designing its spa and wellness therapies drawing inspiration of the Chinese culture essence that man is an integral part of nature. Meanwhile, its senior therapists develop exclusive wellness therapies by combining traditional Chinese wellness theories with Europe’s most cutting-edge technologies.

I came to visit Urban Retreat on account of its reputation. On the international, commercial, restless and bustling West Nanjing Road, I found an oasis of calmness. When I opened the door, the gentle smile of the front desk staff melted my worries away and pacified my mind. After taking a rest in the elegant, quiet and comfortable lounge, my therapist led me to a deluxe suite through the unlimited extension of serene corridor. Lingering scents, gently flowing water, soothing music and soft lighting made me feel as if I was entering a Zen world. The suite was very spacious with simple lines and delicate details creating a completely natural space. Shower room, dry steam room and Jacuzzi were all on offer.

My treatment, Oriental Bliss (RMB980/100 mins), began with floral foot rituals. The white gardenia in the foot basin looked elegant and smelled fragrant. The therapist massaged my feet skillfully, making me relaxed instantly. The

following body herbal pouch massage delivered a sense of wellbeing to my whole body. The therapist first warmed up my relevant body parts with a towel in order to open my pores.

Then she massaged me using a warm herbal pouch with pressure applied to my meridians.

Worthy of note is that the herbal pouch contains an exclusive formula by Urban Retreat.

It is based on a combination of Western and Eastern wellness theories. It contains various traditional Chinese herbal medicines which are collected from nature. For example, it contained tea leaves that help with detoxifying and purifying; rose buds and lavender seeds that soothe and moisturise the skin and nerves; the Phytomer-branded natural sea salt that removes the cutin and helps supplement minerals and minor elements. During the massage, she explained to me gently: “This can stimulate the acupuncture points, help the effective ingredients enter the body and accelerate metabolism.”

The effective elements in the herbal medicine penetrate the body during the massage. I felt a surge of heat slowly pass from the massaged point throughout my whole body. While the massage points were still warm, the final body lymphatic massage started. The therapist applied Biodroga-branded essential oil and massaged smoothly using palms and fingers with pressure applied to meridians. This can alleviate muscle tension and promote lymphatic and blood circulation. When massaging each body part, the above order was followed to ensure the best feeling. Slowly, a sense of complete relaxation captured me. I fell asleep. When I woke up, I was refreshed and my body was as light and free as floating on my stomach in the water.

The journey to the nature-centered Urban Retreat indeed pacified my body and mind and allowed me to recover my original simplicity!

Crispy deep-fried chicken is the most famous dish in the restaurant, using Qingyuan chicken from Guangzhou which is salted first and roasted later. The chicken skin is crispy while the meat tastes tender, and is more delicious if a cup of lemonade and a plate of pepper and salt are added. Unlike this dish cooked in the Cantonese way, Wensi Toufu Porridge is made in the traditional Huaiyang style, which allows the guest to witness the extraordinary food cutting skills of the chef who will perform the method of cutting toufu into slices on the spot.

Treatment Room

S

pa Village from Malaysia is known for its spa concept of promoting regional culture and letting guests taste local natural and cultural customs while trying out the pleasant spa treatments. In Hangzhou, “the paradise on earth”, inspired by the beauty and elegance of nature, Spa Village offers a fascinating space with luxury services to nourish both your body and mind at the Jiangnan Garden style Dragon Hotel.

The simple yet graceful Spa Village Hangzhou occupies an area of 1,208 sq m, with nine hanging-garden-like treatment suites, where the lush greenery will make guests feel like being outdoors in nature. In the characteristic four seasons (spring, summer, autumn and winter) spa suites, with a combination of plant wall, wood, sandstone and crystal, guests will be welcomed in a warm wonderful atmosphere. The double wet steam room is built into a unique meditation chamber by sound, light and shadow, which can react on urban people’s dull sensory nerve, helping deep relaxation and relieving worries and stress. The therapists use amala and ila, two organic skin care products from Germany and UK, ensuring that the treatments are safe, healthy, efficient and comfortable.

According to seasonal changes, Spa Village Hangzhou specially designs different treatments, to maximally maintain body balance. Spring is a thriving season when plants blossom and it is the best time for the body to rejuvenate after a winter’s “hibernation”.

The “Spring Fragrance” treatment (for couple RMB3,980/180 mins; for one person RMB2,380/180 mins) will recall the energy of

Nature and revitalize the body in spring.

Before the treatment starts, there is a 5 minutes’ herbal rolling. The therapist will roll the silk pillow with heated lava and mulberry leaf inside, around the whole body. It can relax muscles and prepare body for the treatment. Besides, herbal rolling can remove free radicals, promote microcirculation and inhibit allergies. The first step of the treatment is 90 minutes’ “lotus seeds wrap”.

The body wrap is made of lotus seeds which symbolize purity and vitality. It can absorb excessive water and calm the mood. The body wrap also adds mint, which will freshen and purify the body. The following “purple perilla and cassia twig bath” will further relax the body. Purple perilla can break the blockages in the body and expel deposited toxins while cassia twig will accelerate blood circulation. You will feel really relaxed in the bath. Finally, “purifying and rejuvenating massage” is a therapy that utilizes palms and fingers to regularly press the body. It will act on the lymphatic system, promote blood circulation and reduce muscle tension. The massage is accompanied by special pure compound oil, which will moisture the skin, and at the same time accelerate metabolism and detoxification, restoring vigor.

If time is limited, you can choose any step of the treatment, to revitalize yourself. 杭州润Spa Village / Spa Village Hangzhou 杭州市曙光路120号黄龙饭店5号楼2层 The Dragon Hotel, Tower 5, Level 2, 120 Shuguang Road, Hangzhou Tel: 400 838 5599 www.roonspavillage.com

spachina BOOK review 群山回唱 And the Mountains Echoed

By Khaled Hosseini 《追风筝的人》及《灿烂千阳》作者、超级畅销作家胡赛尼2013年推 出顶尖力作《群山回唱》，该书文笔优美，技巧圆熟，跨越将近60年 的阿富汗历史，审视了一次绝望之举给两个幼小生命留下的创痛，及 它所导致的连串后果。小说虽然充满了令人心痛的悲情，却洋溢着爱 的辉光：经久的兄妹之情；龃龉不断却紧密相连的表亲之情；暗自亲 昵、终至密友的主仆之情；以至一位医生、一位护士对战争受害者的

恋恋笔记本 The Notebook

By Nick Cassavetes 本片根据著名通俗小说家尼古拉斯· 斯帕克思的同名畅销小说改编。这种 富家女与穷小子的爱情模式虽然老套 而没有创意，但影片触动人心的地方 在于它没有回避他们两人本身的矛 盾，如她的世界是城市里鳞次栉比的 高楼，而他的世界，则只有乡村里蜿

承诺。为了强调爱的重要与偶然，胡赛尼以一个梦中的场景收尾，回忆往昔，已逝的幸福尤 为珍贵，因为我们知道它多么脆弱。

Khaled Hosseini, the No.1 New York Times–bestselling author of The Kite Runner and A Thousand Splendid Suns, has written a new novel - And the Mountains Echoed. This beautifully written, masterfully crafted new book spans nearly 60 years of Afghan history as it investigates the consequences of a desperate act that scars two young lives and resonates through many others. . . And the Mountains Echoed is painfully sad but also radiant with love: the enduring bond of a brother and sister; the irritable but bedrock connection of cousins; the quiet intimacy of master and servant who become friends; the commitment of a doctor and nurse to war’s victims. To underscore love’s centrality and contingency, Hosseini closes with an image drawn from a dream: a snapshot of bygone happiness all the more precious in retrospect because we know how fragile it is. Hardcover: $ 16.58

spachina CD review

真情从平凡生活中最朴实的场景里流 露出来，没有花巨资买的钻戒或花园 别墅，也没有盛大的结婚场面，但他 能看懂她的画，亲手为她建一座漂亮 的白色小屋，老了还握着她的手一起 入睡，为了唤醒她的记忆，为她日复 一日的讲述着那段刻骨铭心的爱恋。 这种可以战胜一切而且温暖人心的爱 情怎不让人艳羡？

T

his movie is adapted from the bestselling novel of famous writer Nicholas Sparks. The story of a rich girl falling in love with a poor boy is old stuff and not creative yet the touching part lies in that it does not avoid the intrinsic conflict between the two people. For example, her world dwells upon the endless rows of tall buildings in the city while in his world, only a creek meanders forward. They often quarrel. Another worthwhile point about the story is that his deep feelings for her show through the simplest scene in the most ordinary life. He does not spend lots of money buying her a diamond ring or villa with a garden; neither does he organize a splendid and grand wedding ceremony.

But he can appreciate her paintings, build one beautiful white house for her with his own hands, hold her hand to fall asleep when growing old and tell her their true love story to refresh her memory. Who wouldn’t envy such love that conquers everything and warms our hearts?

Live in San Franscisco Ry Cooder

WomanChild

By Cecile McLorin Salvant

雷·库德是一位音乐巨匠。虽然他在职业生

她可能是当今世界上最好的歌手。也许你

涯中鲜少推出现场演出特辑，但这张旧金山

们觉得这个评价太夸大其词了，但不妨去

现场演出专辑却令人印象深刻，强烈的震撼

听听她首张专辑WomanChild里的第一首歌I

了流行乐坛。从第一首到最后一首，都非常

Didn’t Know What It Is，听了之后再告诉我我

有趣、令人激动、旋律优美及技艺高超。他

说的是否对。她唱歌有比利·哈乐黛的感觉

是多元风格融合的高手，譬如他在最著名的

并有艾拉·菲茨杰拉德纯洁的音色、近乎完

专辑《乐士浮生录》中就很巧妙的融入了古

美无缺的分节和音准。而且她的歌唱事业才

巴元素，我甚至觉得这些美妙的元素盖过了

刚刚起步，前途无量。这张专辑格式简单，

他自己的演奏。去听听旧金山现场演出吧，

有标准的爵士钢琴三重奏伴奏，并有Cecile

它太棒了。只可惜他没唱All Shook Up这首

站在前面主唱。在许多方面，它是一张高质

歌。

量、高水准的专辑，特别是Cecile的嗓音独具

Ry Cooder is a fantastic musician, and while he’s done very few live albums in his career, he’s produced a total knockout with Live in San Francisco. It is interesting and exciting, melodic and masterful, from the first track to the last. He is a master at melding styles, as he did with Cuban material on his most famous album - Buena Vista Social Club, on which I don’t think he even played. But listen to Live in SF. Wonderful. Just a shame he did not do the song All Shook Up.

一格、无与伦比。

She is probably the best singer in the world today.

What an extraordinary statement that is, but listen to the track I Didn’t Know What It Is on her debut album WomanChild, and tell me I’m wrong. She has the feel of Billie Holiday and the tone and sweeping accuracy of Ella Fitzgerald. And she’s just getting started. This is a simple album in format, standard jazz piano trio with Cecile out front. It is a high-level album in a number of ways, but Cecile’s vocals are in a special class.

Yi colored silk on formal robes indicates instruction follows tigers and monkeys on temple bronzes symbolize filial piety 彝是古代祠堂祭祀用的青铜器皿如酒杯、花瓶等的统称。 其中，上面铸有猴、虎图案的则可追溯到4,000多年前的 皇帝舜时期。该图案用以提醒人们即使是最凶恶不驯的动 物也是对父母妻儿有情有意的。舜也是因为孝行而被选为 尧帝的继承人。从舜开始，朝廷官员的着装增加了丝绸长 袍，上面绣有12种图案，包括猴和虎。 Bill Porter

The word yi was the general term for any bronze vessel used as a cup or a vase during sacrifices in the ancestral temple.

Such vessels, cast with monkey or tiger designs, have been traced back some 4,000 years to the time of Emperor Shun.

The tigers and monkeys were intended to remind people that even the most vicious and unruly of animals honored their parents. Shun was chosen to succeed Emperor Yao because of his filial piety. With regard to court attire, he is also credited with adding silk robes embroidered with twelve symbols, among them the monkey and the tiger.

and has even been invited to deliver speeches at Chinese Universities.

As mentioned in the previous note, silk robes worn at court were embroidered with twelve symbols that were already ancient when Emperor Shun began using them more than 4,000 years ago. Two symbols are the tiger and the monkey, and another two are axes. The double-edged ax symbolized the ability to distinguish right from wrong, while this singleedged ax, called fu, symbolized the power to decide. This is no doubt a comment on imperial vacillation.

Recently, he just finished editing a translation of the Lankavatara Sutra.

By his contribution, SpaChina can now serialize the Plum Book both in English and Chinese.
