The Chelsea Day Spa

A thoroughly modern spa experience which nails the trend for express beauty

The Chelsea Day Spa knows what its clients want. Situated on the King’s Road, it is a haven for tired feet and anyone with a chronic case of ‘shopping arm’, offering an express menu of spa treatments which last less than an hour. The Express Bar offers everything from manicures and pedicures to waxing, facials, massages and eye treatments, which will perk you up and give you a second wind.

However, for those with a little more time to spend on their skincare regime, there is a wealth of more complex, high tech treatments on offer.

A range of luxury facials include HydroPeptide treatments which are said to boost collagen production, and O2 Intraceuticals procedures, where skin is treated with pure oxygen in an effort to plump out dehydrated cells and slow down the ageing process.

These unusual treatments are requested by men as well as women, although a male-only menu of treatments is also available, titled “Grooming Mr Sloane”.

Every client is matched up with their own personal therapist, in order to personalise their spa experience.

Recently, the Chelsea Day Spa added New York Manis & Pedis to its repertoire, hoping to bring a bit of that NYC glamour to the streets of London.

• TREAT YOURSELF:  to one of the spa’s anti-ageing O2 Intraceuticals treatments, which are beloved by ageless celebrities such as Madonna, Gwen Stefani and Justin Timberlake.

• PERFECT FOR: Chelsea girls (and gents) who want a quick spa fix.
