Yoga relieves tightness in muscles and helps
maintain flexible, healthy joints. For those with
a stressful lifestyle, it's also a great way to un-
wind.

TAKING INSPIRATION FROM THE
ROMANS
At the Spa Village Bath, which leads off a natural light-flooded atrium at The Gainsborough Hotel, guests are
advised to work their way around a circuit that includes dipping in three thermal pools of varying
temperatures, working up a sweat in the traditional and infrared saunas and steam room, and enjoying a
bracing rubdown in the ice alcove — before moving to one of 11 therapy rooms for Malaysian-inspired and
aromatherapy-based treatments. Popular options include the Ginger Renewal, which combines an organic
ginger-oil massage with a full-body exfoliation, and peppermint, rose, or lavender-scented facials.
In fact, the whole journey smells delicious thanks to the Aroma Bar, where a custom-made scent
is concocted for bathers based on the mood they want to achieve from their visit — perhaps uplifted or
relaxed — and infused into a small bag of salt that is carried with them as they embark on the circuit.
