What to do
Tao Spa
Opposite Jumeirah Beach Hotel
Located in The Mall, opposite Jumeirah Beach Hotel, Tao Spa is a go to place for relaxing massages and other pampering services. The spa caters to both men and women and has two separate sections featuring a beauty lounge for grooming services, and five massage rooms in each of the sections. The space is not a widespread one, however set in a compact space, it oozes with the vibes of a luxury spa.
With a floor to ceiling glass door entrance, the spa interiors adorn earthy neutral tones with wooden accents. The entrance is marked by a compact lounge area and a reception. A door besides the reception opens to the spa facility which is dimly lit, and spa rooms lie alongside the narrow alley lined with candles, lanterns and flowers. The fragrance apparently overpowers your senses. You know that you are in spa that is worth it!
The spa offers a wide range of beauty and relaxation services, including massages, facials, mani-pedi, waxing and threading.
From Thai to Swedish, the spa offers a wide range of spa options, however, one of the signature massages is Lava shell massage that soothes muscles and gives a deeper relaxation.
Lava shells are self-heating massage shells which provide heat that soothes the muscles, calms the mind and increases circulation. The continuous heat the shells emit enable the therapist to deliver a deeper, more relaxing treatment. The body feels the bliss and tranquillity as the therapist glides the hot lava shells and the muscles start to relax and then enter a euphoric state.
The massage starts with a gentle neck massage, followed by full body oil massage and ends with gentle strokes of lava shells. If you are in or around Jumeirah, the spa is a perfect treatment for your tiring feet.
