COMO Shambhala Urban Escape, Singapore–the city’s leading centre for holistic wellness–has launched a new ‘Jetset Recovery’ experience aimed at burnt-out city professionals and business travellers.
The two-hour experience, based at the new COMO Shambhala centre at the Delfi in Orchard Road, offers a nurturing combination of yoga or Pilates and massage to help run-down business people restore inner balance across mind, body and soul.
The programme begins with either a 60-minute private yoga or Pilates session with one of the centre’s expert teachers. Each session is tailored to the individual. Yoga will feature aspects of various disciplines, from meditative Hatha to more dynamic Vinyasa flow, helping to stretch and stimulate tight and tired muscles, improve circulation and clear the mind. Whether mat or Reformer-based, Pilates helps to improve the body's alignment, posture, flexibility, muscle control, balance and endurance as well as re-focusing the mind. A relaxing deep tissue massage or a signature COMO Shambhala massage then follows the session. Both treatments are designed to undo tension and muscle fatigue caused by long hours in front of a computer or on a plane. Guests will also receive a soothing COMO Shambhala balm in the aromatherapy blend of their choice: CALM, COMFORT, HARMONY, INVIGORATE, PURIFY or SHELTER. The balm can be rolled over wrists, neck and temples at any time.
COMO Shambhala Urban Escape opened in April 2013 and is a new, urban version of the award-winning, Bali-based wellness resort COMO Shambhala Estate. The centre is a first in Singapore, offering a 360-degree approach to wellness which includes yoga, Pilates, GYROTONIC®, naturopathy, nutritional advice, preventative health and massage therapy with expert hands-on healing and consultation from resident and visiting experts – all from a expansive, centrally located premises at the Delfi in Orchard Road. The Escape takes a proactive approach to health and wellbeing, whether through Pilates and yoga, nutrition, or via western and alternative medicine. Yoga specialties range from pre-natal to Yin with a low student-to-teacher ratio. Personalised one-to-one classes for yoga and Pilates are also available via a team of experienced and internationally-accredited panel of teachers, with a weekly schedule of sessions for all levels.
