Experience both hot and cold at the exotic AquaSpa aboard Celebrity Cruises’ new Celebrity Reflection.
Step aboard the epitome of modern luxury with the newly enhanced AquaSpa by Elemis, presented by Celebrity Cruises’ new Celebrity Reflection. Guests can move from room to room through the enhanced AquaSpa to experience hot and cold, wet and dry with peace and tranquility throughout the entire spa experience. The expanded AquaSpa also has a 883-square-foot Persian Garden that includes six more curved heated tile beds with relaxing seaview, and six brand new experiences.
The Hammam, a modern twist on traditional experience, is a cool and peaceful space that is designed to help loosen muscles and joints while lounging on a heated stone slab. This soothing and regenerating experience can be further enhanced with a massage or custom salt scrub.
Another addition is the Infrared Sauna, which uses infrared heat instead of the traditional steam heat saunas. The use of infrared has many advantages over the traditional saunas, with more health benefits of the natural
sunlight, decreasing the harmful effects of solar radiation. The infrared sauna can help to increase blood flow, reduce inflammation and decrease pain versus purely heat the skin, as in a traditional sauna.
For aromatherapy lovers, check out the Aromatic Steam Room, which features warm steam and aromatherapy combined to melt away muscle tension and toxins, relax the mind, and leave the entire body feeling rejuvenated and refreshed.
Guests can also choose to ‘chill out’ – literally – in the Cold Room, a space designed with ice cold seats, walls and floor (52 F) to help tighten pores, best experienced after the Aromatic Steam Room. After opening and cleansing the pores from the steam room, step into the cold room to tighten them up.
Indulge in the DIY Scrub and Salt Bar, a new do-it-yourself bar that allows guests to create custom “body cocktails,” or scrubs. Guests can choose from an extensive selection of salts, sugar and herbs. The scrubs can be individually purchased or as a package of five scrubs for only $45.
Complete the spa experience with the Sensory Showers, through the Persian Garden by selecting between either warm, tropical rain infused with mild, fruity fragrances, or an icy cool mist that has been infused with eucalyptus essences. In addition, creative applications of soothing sound, scent and light can further help to tantalize the senses to
leave guests rejuvenated and refreshed.
Guests can experience the Persian Garden complimentary as long as they are booked in Celebrity’s spa-inspired AquaClass accommodations. A one-day pass for other guests will cost only $35.
Also, AquaSpa introduces “Girlz Night,” which is a social spa night for women, with access to the Persian Garden, as well as “Couples Night,” offering couples an intimate evening in the Persian Garden.
Adding on the array of treatments available on menu, a new therapy “Rhythm and Bliss,” is also a good choice for those who want to relax and indulge. A rhythmic rubdown created and choreographed by the New York brand, bliss®, is designed to give guests’ tense spots a ‘tune-up,’ while they ‘tune out’ with noise-canceling headphones.
With its focus on wellness and life balance, “Acupuncture: The Point of Well-Being,” is an integrated solution for chronic symptoms ranging from severe muscle and joint pain to insomnia, in addition to Botox® and Dysport® injectables, and Restylane® and Perlane® dermal fillers.
The AquaSpa salon also introduces a new service, introducing the popular Keratin Complex hair smoothing therapy.
