Mandarin Oriental, New York
Establish a balance between mind and body at an oasis in a whirlpool of chaos. The Spa at the Mandarin Oriental offers you a sanctuary from New York City and the opportunity to experience some wonderful treatments—Lucy Liu, Adam Scott, and Morgan Freeman are among their fans. Take for example the Ayurvedic Ritual, which starts with an extensive consultation to understand your Dosha type (Pitta, Vata, or Kapha). Each sequence of this treatment involves full body exfoliation, a body wrap, hot stone massage, and Shirodara treatment.
