Try something right now. Sit back, close your eyes, and take a few deep breaths. Really try to slow down for a moment and check in with yourself. How are you feeling? Maybe you’re tired run-down, or maybe the air pollution outside is getting to you. If you’re feeling less than great, you need sometime to relax. Guangzhou is a great city, but sometime you need to kick back and treat your mind and body to some relaxation. Its times like these you should try a spa treatment. We’ve checked out Guangzhou’s best spas, so all you need to do is sit back and relax.

Heavenly Spa, Guangzhou

The first place we suggest is the Heavenly Spa. Located near the Westin Hotel, the Heavenly Spa’s chilled ambiance takes you right out of the city and helps you let go of stress from the moment you walk in. With 10 private treatment rooms for facial and body treatments, and several larger rooms for couples, the spa has more than enough in the way of facilities. Their signature treatment is an exfoliating dry brush massage which stimulates blood circulation, followed by a hot oil massage to aid weight loss and detox.
