ATLANTA, GA, 2020-Feb-13 — /Travel PR News/ — Waldorf Astoria Atlanta Buckhead is pleased to announce a new spa concept, menu of treatments and partners at its coveted Waldorf Astoria Spa. Paying homage to Atlanta’s reputation as a “city in the forest,” the new spa program invites guests to discover a transformative spa and wellness experience within while enjoying a dose of pampering from new acclaimed luxury partners.
Inspired by the lush, green canopy that embraces the city, Waldorf Astoria Atlanta Buckhead brings the “city in the forest” concept into the experience at the Waldorf Astoria Spa, which is a true oasis offering respite from the rigors of urban living, stress and travel. The new menu of treatments invites guests to cultivate a deeper connection to their surroundings and themselves, encouraging them to travel in the present moment and live life to the fullest. “We are thrilled to unveil our new and environmentally connected spa concept and menu,” says Jessica Shea, Senior Director Spa & Fitness Operations, Americas. “Created with community brands and exceptional global partners, our inspired treatments bring the best of wellness to Atlanta.”
Among new signature treatments is the Forest Therapy experience, which utilizes a unique essential oil blend by spa partner Aromatherapy Associates of evergreen, pink pepper, cypress and juniper to provide a tension-releasing massage, followed by a warm, grounding mud mask to recharge through hands and feet and a luxurious scalp massage. As part of Waldorf Astoria Atlanta Buckhead’s commitment to giving back and preserving the environment and Hilton’s Travel with Purpose corporate responsibility strategy and 2030 environmental goals, proceeds from the Forest Therapy treatment will be donated to Trees Atlanta, a local organization working tirelessly to address Atlanta’s tree loss, protect its forests and create new green space.
Additional new treatments include A Walk in the Woods, offering a personalized journey to discover and address a guest’s specific needs. This full-body treatment combines massage techniques to the desired pressure and body therapies that can include warm stones, exfoliated sea salts and aromatherapy oils.
Alongside the new concept, Waldorf Astoria Atlanta Buckhead is delighted to announce new partnerships with several of the spa industry’s leading luxury brands, who bring a series of new advanced skin care therapies, body treatments, nail services and more to the spa experience.
