Starhill Spa Village, JW Marriott Kuala Lumpur

When we're in need of a good spa treatment, we know we can always count on Spa Village for the ultimate pampering session. Starhill Spa Village at JW Marriott Kuala Lumpur is the latest addition to the luxury Spa Village brand, where every spa is unique and introduces authentic encounters that combine the therapeutic properties of natural local ingredients and age-old healing practices.

At the Starhill Spa Village, ignite your senses through the power of scent. Scent carries memories on its wings to lift the emotions, calm the nerves, or spice up your day.

Each signature aromatic oil has its own distinctive health benefits to help soothe your body and mind. Guests will be able to personalise their own experience by choosing their preferred aromatic oil (from a range of ten oils from the collection) and pair it with their choice of massage and enhancement (herbal compress, warmed stones or muscle relax pack), for a delightful sensory journey.

The signature treatment here at Starhill Spa is the Deep Sleep (RM650), a 2-hour experience curated for those who suffer insomnia, experiencing jet lag or seeking to ensure a peaceful night's sleep. My therapist ushered me to the treatment room, and served me the welcome drink - a delicious concoction of green apples, celery and ginger. 

I was then asked to change into a sarong and led to the opulent ensuite bathroom to immerse myself in the bathtub which has been run earlier. Lavender and Clary Sage essential oils has been added to the warm waters to help you relax and begin your dreamy journey. The lights are dimmed, and I was left alone to enjoy a soak for 20 minutes.

Following the bath, I was be led back to the treatment room, where gentle hands lull me into a state of complete relaxation using specialised hypnotic massage techniques and sleep inducing 432 Hz frequency music to gently shift the body’s circadian rhythm to a more balanced state. Highly relaxing, I admit I fell asleep during the first half of the treatment and I slept very well back at home that evening. After the treatment, I was brought to the Relaxation Lounge to enjoy a cup of hot ginger tea.

Loving this bathroom!

 Hubby, on the other hand, had the 90-minutes Gentleman's Refuel (RM450), designed for the gentleman feeling the ill effects of stress and a hectic lifestyle. This experience focuses on all those spots with knots. The back is first treated to an invigorating thermal mineral exfoliation to prepare for the nutrient dense back mask of Moor Mud. Evolved over 20,000 years, this mud is composed of over 1,000 plants, herbs, and flowers, increasing circulation, reducing tissue and joint inflammation, and easing pain. The rejuvenating treatment concludes with a full body massage using zesty Pine and Cedarwood oils deeply penetrating the muscles and encouraging tension release.

Guests can enjoy the Spa Facilities, such as Hot Spa and Cold Plunge Pools, Steam and Sauna Rooms.

Modern, sleek Changing Facilities. Love the white tiles!
