SPA PHILOSOPHY
The Spas at Mandarin Oriental are born out of a sincere understanding and passion for wellness, which we define as a way of life that focuses on physical, emotional and mental wellbeing. The Group is committed to delivering all aspects of wellness with integrity and honesty, providing inspiration for lifestyle change, in an environment that delights all the senses. The Spas at Mandarin Oriental are havens for contemplation and discovery. Guided by our Oriental heritage but influenced by local cultural diversity, the Group has created distinctive concepts with a unique sense of place in every location.
One essential aspect of The Spa at Mandarin Oriental, Tokyo is the concept of the 'Spa Journey’. Guests are invited to arrive and begin their spa experience one full hour before their scheduled treatment time. Upon entering the spa, shoes are exchanged for comfortable slippers, signifying a departure from the external world. Guests then have the opportunity to savor the Heat and Water experiences, and truly come to appreciate the meaning of Spa – salus per aquas – which is ‘healing through water’. The Spa, designed to impart tranquility, is adorned with organic textures in soothing colours. Holistic therapists and global healing practices come together. Guests are pampered in legendary Mandarin Oriental style, and transported to a meditative haven conducive to self-reflection.
This total mind and body rejuvenating journey has won The Spa at Mandarin Oriental, Tokyo acclaims and recognitions from around the world, and many prestigious awards, including, but not limited, as follows:

MANDARIN ORIENTAL SIGNATURE SPA THERAPIES
2 hours
Mandarin Oriental’s signature spa therapies have been devised to address guests’ increasing desire for simple, effective and authentic spa experiences.
Developed in consultation with a team of Chinese doctors and master aromatherapists, each two-hour hands-on body massage ritual combines the therapeutic benefits of Mandarin Oriental’s bespoke essential oils, with the powerful effects of oriental meridian massage. The treatments all begin with a private therapist consultation in order to determine each individual’s personal and current state of wellbeing. The style of treatment and oils are then tailored to each guest in order to awaken the senses, and to leave the body, mind and spirit in perfect harmony. Guests are also provided with nutritional and exercise guidance, in order to extend the beneficial effects of the programme at home.
TIME RITUALSTM
2 hour or 3 hour
Mandarin Oriental’s bespoke “Time RitualsTM” encourage guests to book time rather than specific treatments, so that services can be tailor-made to meet individual needs. Each “Time Ritual” begins with a soothing foot ritual and is designed to restore a natural state of equilibrium.
ORIENTAL HARMONY
2 hours
Four hands work in perfect unison in a remarkable experience that inspires a harmony of the senses. The treatment begins with a soothing foot bath in purifying waters, leaving the feet soft and supple and the mind relaxed. Next two therapists work together in time and movement. First, providing a warm scrub that smoothes and replenishes the skin and later a harmonious massage that balances the body. The treatment concludes with a simultaneous head and foot massage leaving the mind uplifted, the body energized and the skin exotically fragrant.
ORIENTAL ESSENCE
1 hour or 1.5 hours
Our "Oriental Essence" massage is part of Mandarin Oriental’s signature spa therapies and has been designed to specifically relieve neck and shoulder tension. The massage concentrates on easing stress, re-aligning the mind, soothing emotions and relaxing the body. Utilising our signature 'Quintessence' body oil blended with warming ginger, uplifting mandarin and sacred frankincense, this calming treatment allows mind and body to completely unwind.
JAPANESE ORIGINAL
2 hours
Two additional treatments have been developed and are available exclusively at The Spa at Mandarin Oriental, Tokyo. KIATSU is a shiatsu-inspired form of the ancient Japanese treatment, designed to impart a healthy balance upon the mind, body and spirit, and the AZUKI RITUAL conditions the skin with a body scrub of azuki beans combined with sea salt, followed by a relaxing and moisturising oil treatment.
