REST AND RENEW

Its dining and arts scene aside, here’s another reason to visit Hong Kong: a spot of rejuvenation at the five‑star W Hong Kong. The hotel is home to the Vital Dome, a state‑of‑the‑ art infratherapy technology that optimises the effects of detoxification, anti‑ageing and slimming—all in 30 minutes, no less.

After the tough year that we’ve had, the treatment is perfect for healing, especially for those struggling with burn out, fatigue and insomnia. It also promises to improve one’s physical performance and recovery process as it promotes metabolism and cell regeneration.

Suited for post‑workout wind downs, the infrared heat from the Vital Dome lowers fatigue threshold, promotes muscle recovery and eliminates lactic acid in the body.

To complement the treatment, the in‑house

Bliss Spa offers an array of pampering treats to melt away the stresses of everyday life. Opt for the caviar and collagen cocoon face and body experience, which exfoliates and detoxifies skin with a blend of caviar algae, pink Himalayan salt and calming essential oils, while a weekday bliss package offers a 60‑minute anti‑stress massage with warm feet paraffin treatment, together with a nano gold luxury collagen face repair mask, and topped off with a glass of bubbly.

Following the pampering sessions, escape to the hotel’s rooftop pool, which is the highest outdoor swimming pool in Hong Kong, and boasts spectacular views of Victoria Harbour.
