24 March 2015

PENINSULA WELLNESS LAUNCHES ‘SATTVA BY SIMPLY PENINSULA’,

AN EXCLUSIVE VEDIC AROMATHERAPY SPA RANGE

IN COLLABORATION WITH SUBTLE ENERGIES

The Peninsula Hotels introduces Sattva by Simply Peninsula, an innovative and results-driven range of Vedic Aromatherapy spa treatments and products. The new range has been exclusively formulated for The Peninsula Wellness programme by Subtle Energies, an award-winning Australian spa brand that was named ‘Best Natural Product’ at the 2014 AsiaSpa Awards.

Sattva means ‘pure’ in Vedic philosophy, and Sattva by Simply Peninsula has been expertly designed by Subtle Energies to combine classic Ayurveda methods with contemporary massage techniques, such as remedial, lymphatic drainage, with an emphasis on Marma therapy. These techniques are enhanced by the therapeutic and sensory benefits of the active ingredients within pure and rare Ayurveda Aromatherapy essential oils, Himalayan crystal salts, clays and herbs.

Where Vedic or Ayurveda Aromatherapy differs from Classical Ayurveda is the use of sense- provoking aromatic essential oils found in the vedic flora pharmacy. Subtle Energies oils are reputed to be some of the highest grade available, sourced direct from distillers and farmers who produce them, and are not to be confused with the herbal oil decoctions used in Ayurveda

Guests at The Peninsula Spas around the world can luxuriate mind, spirit and body by selecting from a comprehensive menu of specially designed treatments performed by spa therapists certified under the Subtle Energies training programme. Signature therapies include the balancing Sattva Vedic Aromatherapy Massage, is a result-driven full-body massage using personalised blends of the purest Ayurveda Aromatherapy essential oils designed to either induce sleep, combat fatigue, drain toxins, release muscle tension and anxiety. The detoxifying and stimulating Khushali Himalayan Crystal Salt Scrub combines mineral-rich Himalayan salts blended with vitamin-rich oils of ashwagandha and black seed sesame to revitalise the body and reduce cellulite.

The Sattva Shirodhara with Facial Marma Therapy is a stress-releasing treatment during which warm oil is poured over the third eye to soothe the nervous system and treat insomnia and skin conditions. It is combined with a facial marma massage using an enriching facial blend of Indian rose, tuberose and mogra (‘Queen of Jasmine’) to add lustre to the skin and enhance emotional balance.

Three Sattva Signature Journeys lasting up to 2.5 hours take spa guests on their choice of reviving, detoxifying or soothing full-body wellness journeys composed of a carefully selected combination of treatments for head-to-toe indulgence. A line of exclusive Sattva by Simply Peninsula retail products will also be available to purchase at The Peninsula Spas worldwide in late 2015, enabling guests to continue enjoying the balancing benefits of Sattva’s pure Ayurveda Aromatherapy essential oils after their spa treatment. “It is a great privilege to collaborate with The Peninsula Hotels, a company that shares our commitment to integrity. The range of Sattva by Simply Peninsula treatments and products exclusively created for The Peninsula Wellness programme has been given a Vedic name befitting this philosophy, Sattva meaning ‘pure’, and is designed to help spa guests discover a harmonious equilibrium of the body, mind and soul,” says Farida Irani, founder of Subtle Energies.
