Treatments
The world’s most luxurious hotels are synonymous with world-class spas and Dubai is no exception. Ancient traditions and new-age innovations come together in opulent treatments like steamy hammams, frankincense compresses and pulsing Iyashi domes.
Treatments range from hydrating body scrubs using monoi oil and papaya puree from tropical destinations to bespoke facials by Dr Rita Rakus, the face expert who’s beloved by A-listers. You can also experience a body detox in the touchless iDome, which looks like an electric sunbed but claims to help with weight loss and cellulite reduction through long-wave infrared rays.
The thermal suites are painted in bold turquoise mosaics and include saunas, steam rooms and plunge pools. The opulent menu includes La Prairie facials and a firming caviar massage. Or try a range of Homeland Massage Therapies – from deep-tissue Philippine Hilot to Balinese – with therapists trained in the techniques of their home countries. The spa also offers cryotherapy, where extremely cold temperatures are used to boost circulation and boost collagen production.
