A


s my car pulls up at the
entrance to Andaz Delhi, the
entire extent of the toll the
festive season’s taken on me suddenly
hits me. I wonder why. I’ve had a fairly
easy day in comparison to the meeting-
filled and stress-fuelled ones I usually
have. Or maybe it’s just because I’m
craving a good massage.

Enjoy a variety of unique personalised therapies and
treatments at Andaz Spa, Delhi
BY PARINEETA SETHI

I enter Andaz Spa to find that it
is a light-filled and cheerful space
in shades of brown and orange. On
flipping through the menu, I see a
variety of treatments from ‘Jet Lag
Journeys’ to aromatherapy massages,
but what piques my interest are the
chakra treatments. It is then that the
Apothecary Bar concept at the spa

is introduced. Here, seasonal fruits,
herbs, minerals, and essential oils are
combined with authentic therapies
to bring about a balance between the
body and mind. I’m fascinated by the
concept and spoilt for choice.
A couple of minutes later it’s
time for the aptly named ‘Restore’,
a Signature Andaz Journey. The
therapist leads me into one of the six
beautifully appointed treatment rooms
after short sessions in the sauna and
steam. A quick foot ritual is followed
by a customised body scrub that smells
delicious and leaves me refreshed. After
this is a tension releasing massage that
relieves muscle strain, and sure enough,
I’m in a soothing world of my own
within minutes of the first stroke. By the
time its time for the facial that comes
after the massage, it almost feels as if
there is no such thing as stress.
My energy renewed, I feel ready
to take on the world, if not another
season of festivities!
