Mai - relaxing at Chuan Spa (Langham Hotel, Melbourne)

You know, I’m all for $25 massages and spas from Asia, namely Bali & Thailand, but it just doesn’t have that same pampered feeling compared to a day spa massage from Chuan Span at the Langham Hotel, Melbourne CBD.

This is the second time I’ve been here and I am really excited because I have been travelling alot more than usual in the past month and am really feeling it. So I booked a session with Chuan Spa.

Chuan Spa is based on ancient chinese tradition.

If you recieved this as a gift certificate or you are going together with your boyfriend or girlfriend make sure you arrive 45 minutes earlier prior to the massage! This will give you enough time to use the Langham Hotel’s swimming pool, jacuzzi and steam room. I didn’t use these facilities last time as I came late but by using it this time round it really really put me in a more relaxed state, ready for the massage. It made a BIG difference.

Then 5 minutes prior to the massage you should get ready and wait for your masseur at the orange seats (the kind staff will tell you where they are).

The masseur will then provide you with a form to fill in - mostly about your details and general health conditions. Then after a quick chat about where I want to be massaged (I said everywhere :P), I was whisked to my massage room and start my hour of bliss :). I was sooo relaxed and in a state of nothing that I was sure I was in and out of a snooze.

I can surely get use to this pampering as it was so rejuvenating. I can tell you if this cost $25 a shot, Id be there every second day in a second!

After an hour of massage, I am offered a herbal tea. Few moments later, I’m back to the dailygrind. The good news is, I know when my next day spas appointment is muahha.
