Rosewood London is pleased to introduce MAISON CAULIÈRES latest treatment, À L’Aube Des Sens, one of four seasonal treatments available throughout the year at Sense spa. Rosewood London is the only hotel in Europe to exclusively feature body treatments and wellness massages from MAISON CAULIÈRES, the iconic bodycare brand which specializes in its high quality, natural ingredients.
MAISON CAULIÈRES is a unique family-owned brand with a rich heritage, dating back 250 years when the Desforges de Caulières family cultivated sunflowers, rapeseed and linseed on the 200 hectare estate within the Loire Valley Châteaux, in the heart of France. This family tradition of cultivating the land whilst only using local resources in the highest respect for nature, is at the heart of the Desforges de Caulières creation of MAISON CAULIÈRES.
MAISON CAULIÈRES created À L’Aube Des Sens especially for spring to help heal and harmonise the body, while reenergising the mind for the fresh months ahead. À L’Aube Des Sens is an invigorating 45-minute massage which targets the feet and legs to relieve feelings of tension and stress held in these areas of the body. This treatment launches in March 2017 at Sense spa at Rosewood London and uses products from the delightful Spring Collection.
The treatment commences with a footbath infused with mint and freshly cut grass, reflecting the beautiful scents of the season. Guests then receive a deeply soothing and stimulating massage on their legs, with techniques that revive circulation and enhance the sensation of energy and lightness. This fresh experience ensures guests emerge from this unique treatment feeling rested, restored and rejuvenated.
MAISON CAULIÈRES treatments were created for both men and women, with the body products including the highest quality natural ingredients sourced from the garden estate. Vegetable oil and honey are at the heart of the Desforges de Caulières creation, known for their exceptional virtues and beneficial properties due to their high concentration of essential fatty acids, they nourish the skin while evoking the scents of the seasons.
These exclusive body treatments are described as sensation-rituals, guiding guests through an imaginary discovery as taking a stroll through the seasons; from the touch of the wind on the skin, the tickle of spring rainfall, the sweet scents of summer, and the soothing hue of the blue sky and the vitality of the colour orange. Guests can choose from energising or calming body massages inspired by each season, to a soothing hand massage, as well as two signature treatments: a signature deep tissue massage and a signature body treatment journey, exclusively created by MAISON CAULIÈRES for Sense spa at Rosewood London.
The treatments combine exquisite ingredients found on the lush family estate with expert techniques. The signature hand treatment Les Mains À L'Origine is inspired by biodynamic massage and reflexology and includes a scrub and hot towel rinse, a hand mask, and a relaxing hand and arm massage to eliminate muscle tension and stimulate reflex points. Another signature treatment, Comme Une Terre Fertile, focuses on the full body with a healing, deep tissue massage. A more playful and holistic treatment is the brand’s Lumiere Des Saisons which follows nature’s cycle to take guests on a journey through all seasons, while inviting them into 4 different olfactory universes. The new À L’Aube Des Sens treatment, too, uses scent to guide the experience in the form of an infused footbath followed by a foot and leg massage. Leading into summer scents is the Le Temps D’un Songe, which uses fragrances of broom flower and honey to stimulate the body from toe to head with an exfoliation to increase circulation and promote cellular renewal, followed by an energetic massage with warm oils to create a sun-like sensation.
