Pit-stop Pampering: Male Grooming at London’s Spa InterContinental

By Pardhasaradhi Gonuguntla

London, UK – Reported by Elite Traveler, the private jet lifestyle magazine

InterContinental London Park Lane will August 15th launch a new male treatment menu at Spa InterContinental. The spa has teamed up with male grooming expert Lee Kynaston to develop fast, effective and fuss-free treatments exclusively for men.

Using efficacy-tested Elemis skincare products for men and designed specifically for male skin, each treatment emphasizes rapid results and attention to detail. The treatments are aimed at business men who need to make an impression, and guests looking for a pre-date ‘pit-stop’ or antidote to jetlag.

Kynaston, an award-winning journalist with over 20 years experience in the industry—including Grooming Editor of Men’s Health—said, “As a grooming writer I’ve been lucky enough to try some of the best treatments in the world, but none have really delivered quite what I wanted, which is practicality and purpose.

“This is why I am so excited about helping create Spa InterContinental’s new tailor-made treatments for men. I’m also thrilled to be incorporating the Spa’s unmissable dry flotation bed into some of them.”

Spa InterContinental manager, Radhika Khandke, said, “We are finding that our male guests are looking for solutions that help to really invigorate and revitalise their skin, particularly before a special occasion or while they are travelling. They are often on a tight schedule, so we have a wide range of ‘Pit-stop’ treatments to suit any timeframe.”

Spa InterContinental ‘Pit-stop’ treatments include:

PRE-BUSINESS PIT-STOP (1hr 30mins)
Designed for business men preparing for an important engagement. Includes: Express Facial, Energising eye treatment, “Mean business” Manicure, ear, nose & brow hair tidy.

POST-BUSINESS PIT-STOP (1hr 20mins)
