Embark on a Restorative Journey at Five-Star beach resort

Embark on a Restorative Journey with Spa Treatments Based on Individual Zodiac Signs and Elements

Five-star Vietnamese beach resort, The Anam, is delighted to unveil brand new spa packages inspired by the Vietnamese Zodiac elements: Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water. Offering a holistic approach to wellness specifically tailored to guests’ birth years and zodiac signs, the bespoke programme is ideal for those seeking to start the new year on a healthy note.

Guests who book the zodiac spa therapy will receive a full consultation with the resort’s ‘elements’ spa specialist upon arrival. During the session, the therapist will assess the guest’s birth year to determine their zodiac sign and zodiac element, before establishing a treatment plan including a range of indulgent and invigorating treatments which aim to balance the mind, body and soul.

Examples of the bespoke packages, available to book now, include:

Wood-Horse Combination:

Those born in 1954 and 2014 are of the Horse Zodiac sign and Wood Zodiac element. Although Horse signs are generally optimistic, these individuals are prone to high levels of stress from work demands.

A Wood-Horse Spa Package therefore offers a bamboo massage, using real bamboo to roll and knead bodily tissue, helping to alleviate mind tension and soothe muscle aches and pains. A cleansing coffee scrub, rosemary-essential oil and aloe vera tea will leave guests feeling totally relaxed.

Earth-Tiger Combination:

Those born in 1938 and 1998 are of the Tiger Zodiac sign and Earth Zodiac element. Lovers of sports and physical activity, tiger signs are both mentally and physically strong, meaning it is important that they stay focused and refreshed to avoid feeling overworked and can continue to perform at optimum level.

An Earth-Tiger spa package will allow guests to reconnect with their inner spirit with a full detox and deep cleansing mineral mud wrap. A refreshing lemongrass essential oil and chrysanthemum tea will see guests leave the treatment room feeling grounded and ready to hit the ground running.

Water-Snake Combination:

Those born in 1953 and 2013 are of the Snake Zodiac sign and Water Zodiac element. Snakes tend to thrive in a peaceful environment and therefore find it difficult to be productive when faced with a heavy workload or stressful situation.

A Water-Snake spa package will ensure that any symptoms of stress float away, with a relaxing back massage and nourishing facial treatment, helping to relieve tight muscles and eradicate blockages. A lavender essential oil and artichoke tea will instill a deep sense of inner peace and calm.

To complement the spa treatments and for a sensation of total relaxation, the team can also arrange for yoga and meditation sessions with the resort’s resident yogi, Umesh.

The Anam offers three swimming pools, four restaurants, three bars and a 300-metre stretch of private beachfront set on what is often cited as Vietnam’s most beautiful beach.

Nightly rates at The Anam start from $200 (£154*) for a Balcony Garden View Room. For more information or to make a reservation visit www.theanam.com, call +(84) 2583 989 499 or email info@theanam.com.

The Vietnamese Zodiac spa packages are offered from The Anam until March 2020. They are priced at 3,000,000 VND per person per treatment.
