Çırağan Palace Kempinski Istanbul Sanitas Spa & Wellness: A Redesigned Retreat

Istanbul, 8 October 2024 – Çırağan Palace Kempinski Istanbul has undergone a complete redesign. This includes the transformation of its luxury spa and wellness centre, which is managed by Sanitas Spa & Wellness. Guests can now enjoy a pampering experience in surroundings that seamlessly blend modern luxury with architectural elements inspired by Ottoman tradition.

A haven where contemporary wellness meets timeless heritage, Sanitas Spa & Wellness provides rejuvenating therapies and treatments delivered by expert hands. The newly redesigned spa features a private VIP Turkish bath, massage rooms, a fitness centre, a skincare room, a sauna, an indoor swimming pool, changing rooms and a reception area, all of which seamlessly blend luxurious modern design with rich traditional elements.

The spa proudly offers a diverse array of services designed to rejuvenate and restore. Guests can indulge in soothing massage treatments, experience authentic Turkish bath rituals and enjoy luxurious facial and body therapies. Additionally, personalised diet programmes and specialised physiotherapy are available to cater to individual needs. Just as the iconic Çırağan Palace stands as a testament to Türkiye’s rich Ottoman heritage, so too does this modern spa revitalise the timeless tradition of the Turkish bath, creating a sanctuary of relaxation and wellness for all who visit.

Honoured by the World Spa Awards and other prestigious institutions as the top spa centre in Türkiye and Europe, the newly redesigned Sanitas Spa & Wellness elevates the traditional spa experience with world-class service and exceptional quality.

 

The Spa’s Signature Treatment: Sultan’s Bath Ritual

The Sultan’s Bath is one of Sanitas Spa & Wellness’s most cherished rituals, offering a unique blend of therapies that transport guests on a timeless journey of serenity. This traditional Ottoman ritual begins with a purifying scrub and a relaxing foam massage, after which a special lotion made from organic ingredients such as honey, milk and rosewater is applied to deeply moisturise the body. After the Sultan’s Bath, guests will feel the week’s fatigue melt away, experiencing a renewed balance of mind, body and soul. This unique ritual concludes with custom facial masks designed to impart a radiant glow and deep hydration to the skin.

 

Massage Rituals: Serenity for the Soul, Body and Mind

Indulging in the award-winning Sanitas Spa’s exceptional massage treatments, delivered by expert therapists, is an unparalleled experience. The spa offers a diverse range of therapies, from classic massages to authentic Asian techniques, Ayurveda treatments and romantic couples’ massages, all designed to bring ultimate serenity to the body.

One of the spa’s signature therapies, the Sanitas Signature Massage, focuses on relaxing muscles and relieving tension. Using specialised massage techniques tailored to each guest, this experience takes visitors on a journey of deep relaxation. The invigorating properties of custom-crafted aromatic oils stimulate blood and lymph circulation, helping to alleviate fatigue. When performed regularly, the massage is also effective in eliminating oedema from the body.

Sanitas Spa & Wellness offers a perfect combination of rejuvenation and relaxation with its Thai Blend Massage, which combines passive yoga movements and stretching techniques inspired by the Far East. Unique to Sanitas Spa, this massage uses palm pressure along with stretching and pulling exercises to relieve muscle tension and restore the body’s energy. It is ideal for addressing chronic muscle pain, neck and shoulder tension and discomfort from poor posture, leaving guests feeling revitalised and energised.

The Shiroibhyanga, a combination of the Abhanghya and Shirodhara rituals, detoxifies both the mind and body. Warm sesame oil is gently drizzled over the body, while dosha oil, prepared to individual specifications, restores harmony to the soul, body and mind. This unique experience not only purifies the body but also nourishes and moisturises the hair.
 

Skin Care Treatments for a Radiant, Vibrant Complexion

Sanitas Spa & Wellness offers a variety of skincare therapies, including the Aquapeel treatment for deep pore cleansing and a highly effective collagen mask that imparts a radiant glow to the skin. Renowned for its deep-cleansing properties, Aquapeel allows the skin to breathe. The treatment is customised to meet each guest’s unique needs, while the device’s vacuum technology penetrates deep into the skin, removing dead cells and counteracting the harmful effects of environmental pollution. This ritual tightens pores while deeply cleansing and hydrating the skin, resulting in a radiant, even complexion. The experience continues with an additional mask, chosen in consultation with an aesthetician to suit the skin’s needs.

The I Beauty Purity treatment, a cutting-edge solution for deep cleansing, reveals the skin’s natural radiance using a specialised skincare bed from abroad. This treatment employs low-frequency ultrasonic vibrations to exfoliate dead skin cells, unclog pores and remove makeup residue. It provides gentle yet effective renewal, leaving the skin purified, healthier and more vibrant.

 

Indoor Pool: The Ultimate Relaxation

In the indoor pool area, adorned with tiled wall engravings, curtained sections and vintage-style deck chairs, guests are invited to unwind in an atmosphere where timeless elegance meets magnificent architecture.

At the newly redesigned Sanitas Spa & Wellness, guests of Çırağan Palace Kempinski Istanbul can indulge in unique rituals that provide complete care for both body and soul, offering an unforgettable pampering experience in the heart of the city.
