for the senses. Drawing on Asian traditions that date back centuries, our intimate retreats blend
romance and serenity with exotic sensuality. The design of our intimate spa treatment suites draws
on local inspiration to blend seamlessly with the dynamic culture of the environment.
Our treatments are based on evolving techniques that have passed through the hands of many
generations. Our health and beauty remedies make use of aromatic oils and herbs & spices with
ancient healing powers. Under the intuitive touch of our therapists, simple sensory pleasures are
reawakened, completing the experience that defines the Banyan Tree Spa.
THE FIVE ELEMENTS
 |
- Earth - Representing the state of optimum balance, Earth sits at the centre, regulating
and nourishing the Five Elements. It is the pivot of the cycle as it symbolises the
season of Late Summer when the Yang energies of Spring and Summer transform into
the Yin energies of Autumn and Winter.
- Gold - Representing the state of Purification and Consolidation, when the energies
are purified and conserved for the impending Winter. Gold sits in the West and
symbolises wealth and prosperity. Characterised by radiance and its essence, Autumn
is the season linked with Gold.
- Water - Associated with Winter and extreme Yin, Water is positioned North among
the Five Elements. Characterised by the season of rest and stillness, Water Element is
meditative and gentle. In Feng Shui, Water element is widely used to promote wealth
and good luck and its colour is represented by black.
- Wood - Expressed as the season of Spring, where new life begins and hibernation
ends, Wood is the start of the Yang energy. Seated East among the Five Elements, it is
characterised by growth and renewal. Green is the colour used to represent Wood.
- Fire - The strongest Yang energy in the Five Elements, Fire is associated with vitality
and hot Summer. It is the most energetic of the Elements and Yin is used to counter
the excessive heat. Situated South among the Five Elements, it is represented by the
colour red.
