With spas offering more than just herbal therapies and relaxing massages, the game has turned around and become a competitive force in the hospitality industry. Infinity pools and hammams won’t suffice. We are at a stage where spas compete with salons and beauty clinics with an added variety of beauty and health care services. The new ball game has seen the shift in quality and variety of signature body treatments. The b/attitude Spa, located at Grosvenor House, offers only natural, oriental treatments that help cultivate harmony between body and mind.



Another newbie seems to be the Bellefontaine perfect shape body treatment. This does not effect or result in changes in your body with the first treatment. The team at b/attitude Spa said it takes a minimum of three or more treatments to feel the change. The body treatment is an interesting therapy to break down cellulite. The anti-cellulite full-body massage targets the specific areas to break up cellulite and eradicate toxins. A renewing mud mask is then applied to tone the skin. The Bellefontaine body treatments are recommended to keep your body fit and in good shape. Bellefontaine, is a Swiss cosmetics enterprise. The ‘perfect shape cream’ used after the massage has a firming complex that synchronizes the body contours while enhancing microcirculation and decreasing stubborn curves. The Perfect Shape Emulsion reportedly reduces the appearance of cellulite, warranting toned skin.



But note that this procedure works better with regular exercise and healthy lifestyle. Many Arab women indulge in regular spa treatments to keep up or gain their perfect body type, considering the challenge to maintain it. Many men and women have undertaken slimming, contouring and anti-cellulite treatments in a bid to support a healthy alternate. The spa uses a blend of ancient therapies from the East with organic therapies and ingredients with a plethora of signature treatments. They offer over forty treatments including waxing, facials, massages and their signature wraps, scrubs, and rubs. B/attitude Spa is designed to be a soothing sanctuary and has a chakra infused décor with warm colors and a rich backdrop. They have twelve treatment rooms, each with a different Chakra theme and two hammam treatment rooms. Celebrating Thai and Indian traditions, the spa offers a dedicated room for Thai massages and an Indian ‘think room.’ You can jump in for a quick sauna and Jacuzzi or relax by the ice fountain area on the incredibly comfortable heated massage beds. Make sure to book your appointment in advance. Bellefontaine products are also available for sale at B/attitude Spa.
