Paris – By incorporating elements of sky, earth and wood, the Six Senses spa on rue de Castiglione in central Paris aims to transport stressed-out Parisians to the natural world.

The spa’s ambiance is underpinned by a ‘slow life’ philosophy. Treatments on offer include detoxifying facials and the Opera de Paris Honey Facial, and the Paris skyline is projected along the full length of the spa. Read more about how people are retreating from the modern world in our feature on spiritual retreats.
