Chuan Spa
Langham Hotel
Southbank, Vic

At Chuan, treatments are based around the principles of traditional Chinese medicine, plus the five elements: fire, earth, water, wood and metal. Luxury is probably the sixth element as Chuan offers the full fluffy-robe experience; even filling out your details is soothing as you sip herbal tea whilst reclined on plush daybeds.
Treatment rooms take opulence up a notch or ten – some are suite sized with backlit spas and Feng Shui inspired fit-outs. Choose from a range of al-a-carte services including waxing and male specific pampering, or turn to the escape menu for themed therapies and extended indulgence.
