Asia is now at the forefront of the international spa movement with the creation of many of the world's finest luxury spas—most of which base their treatments on traditional Asian therapies and formulas.
Drawing on the expertise of many of Asia's best therapists, doctors, and wellness experts from around the region, ultimate spa offers a comprehensive look at the finest spas in Asia and the unparalleled range of therapies they now offer.
This spa pictorial not only describes Asia's best-known destination and day spas in detail, it delves deeply into the ancient wellness traditions of Ayurveda, TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine), and other health and beauty secrets which are largely responsible for the phenomenal success of Asian spas today. The emphasis is on spiritual well-being and natural holistic curatives. All spas and photographs, many with extensive how-to sequences and detailed recipes and instructions. This book is a must-have for spa goers and spa professionals everywhere.
