LEVITATE
Experience the Lightness of Hong Kong’s First Family Wellness Spa
LOCATED AT SHOP B, Level 2, 11 Shum Wan Road, Levitate is a welcome addition to the spa scene on the South Side of Hong Kong island.
The brainchild of Joey and Gordon Hui, chairman of Sunseeker Asia, Levitate aims to transform people of all ages to a relaxed state. The inspiration for the spa came from the joy of parenting their 21-month-old daughter victoria and the desire to enable families to enjoy a spa visit together. Levitate’s approach is to ‘Revive’ by rejuvenating and recharging, ‘Reflow’ by enhancing circulation and creativity, and to be ‘Reborn’ with an elevated feeling.
The two-storey, 3,800sqft spa features a lofty entrance, expansive French doors and windows combined with muted tones, which let the spirit soar and lull the senses in preparation for the therapeutic treatments.
A first for Hong Kong, Levitate offers massages by professional therapists for babies aged two to 18 months. A growing trend, baby massage is beneficial to both infants and parents and is one of the best ways for them to bond. Besides helping babies sleep better, the affectionate touch and rhythmic movements improve their circulation. parents are also encouraged to learn baby massage techniques from the therapists so they can pamper their babies at home to promote their overall wellness.
Adults can indulge in an array of restorative spa treatments, including reflexology, facials, hot stone and bespoke massages with aroma oils custom blended to suit individual needs. Using only the best products from premium beauty brands such as organic pharmacy, Aromatherapy Associates and RK Beauty, treatments at Levitate leave one with an elevated state of mind and lightness of being.
