Spacious Luxury in a Private, Personal Spa

Shangri-La Hotel, Beijing, proudly announces the opening of CHI, The Spa in the hotel's new Valley Wing.  Inspired by traditional Asian healing philosophies, all treatments are based upon the principles of restoring balance and harmony to mind and body.
 
Signature therapies include the CHI Balance and Aroma Vitality treatments-each working to both relax and restore vitality. The Himalayan Healing Stone Massage and the Mountain Tsampa Rub use indigenous ingredients and techniques drawn from the ancient healing traditions of the Himalayas.

The spa also invites guests to indulge in memorable spa rituals, such as the Enchanted Journey or Vitality Ritual, each combining several individual treatments to create a uniquely relaxing and healing experience.

The spa's spacious interior houses a modern interpretation of a Tibetan temple. Atmospheric elements such as scented incense and the sounds of Tibetan singing bowls help create a contemplative, mystic aura that evokes the Shangri-La legend.

Understanding Ch'i

In traditional Asian philosophy, ch'i is the universal life force that governs well-being and personal vitality. For people to maintain good health, it is believed that ch'i must flow freely within the body.

Exercise, stretching, massage, hydrotherapy and movement of the mind through relaxation and meditation combine to assist the body's natural renewal, forming the basis of the CHI experience.
