A touch of Thailand in Tel Aviv
With traditional Thai treatments as well as authentic oils, herbs and balms, the Sheva Spa in the Hilton Tel Aviv offers quality services for those seeking a genuine, relaxing Thai experience.
All alliterations aside, of all things Thai—massage is one of the most well-known.
Within Thailand, it is considered one of the branches of traditional medicine and is even regulated by the government as such. Thai massage itself has a rich history and in many instances, is as much a religious activity as it is a physical one. In fact, according to Pāli Buddhist canon, the founder of Thai massage was the Buddha's personal physician some 2,500 years ago.
Thai massage utilizes all manner of yoga and stretching in addition to slow pressure strokes in soft tissue areas, muscles and tendons to increase blood flow and provide a sense of relief.
In the Sheva Spa in the Hilton Tel Aviv, the staff brings not only authentic and traditional experience from Thailand, but also materials. Thai Sesame seed oil, herbs and balms are all incorporated into the spa treatments in order to provide the guest an authentic experience.
The Hilton brand has high standards and they are certainly extended to the spa. As the Hilton Tel Aviv is one of the city's most well-known major hotels, the spa is expected to offer service that is personal, professional and thorough. Sheva Spa delivers in that respect and the quality of service and treatments is certainly on par with the price and location.
The Sheva Spa is located on the lower floors of the hotel complex and the atmosphere is scrupulously maintained to serve as a quiet and relaxing environment for guests.
The diverse list of traditional Thai treatments offered ensures that those seeking an authentic Thai experience need not travel further than Tel Aviv.
