Tatler visited Chuan Spa at Cordis Hotel to try the Therapeutic Bust Care Massage, one of the spa’s treatments targeting women’s wellness
As products, services and experiences targeting women’s health and wellness become more common and popular, it’s good to know that spas are also catering to that trend. For example, Chuan Spa in Hong Kong, which provides services such as the Womb Warming treatment and the Therapeutic Bust Care Massage—and Tatler was recently invited to try the latter.
The 60-minute treatment includes cleansing, exfoliating and massaging of the chest and its surrounding area using products from skincare brand Vagheggi that are created for breast care. Vagheggi is an Italian brand with a focus on using plant-based ingredients, which aligns with traditional Chinese medicine philosophies about leaning on the benefits of natural ingredients.

Warm welcome
Chuan Spa has an interior design that incorporates the five elements of TCM: wood in its furnishings, fire in the warm lighting, earth in decorative stones, metal in the brass handles and water in the calming waterfall that greets you as you enter.
Upon arrival, I was introduced to the spa’s new treatments, including the Therapeutic Bust Care Massage, which came about in response to the growing desire for chest treatments as women grew more aware of the complex nature of breasts in relation to menstrual cycles, fertility, postnatal care and menopause. Afterwards, I was shown to a private room for a media trial session of the breast care massage, which was trimmed to 30 minutes.
