ONEwellness scoops prestigious Les Nouvelles Esthetiques Spa Award

OUTSHINING INDUSTRY ROLE PLAYERS

Rob Cowling, Managing Director of ONEwellness, received the award and recognition on behalf of the ONEwellness brand, a name that is becoming firmly entrenched in an industry experiencing phenomenal growth and thus tough competition. ONEwellness Sandton Isle at the Radisson outshone the prestigious One & Only Spa as well as Librisa Spa at the Mount Nelson, both tough contenders with well established brand re-inforcement.

Comments Rob Cowling; “We strive to offer a unique experience and to remain at the epicentre of global trends, allowing us to offer facilities and services on par with the best in the world. Receiving this award will continually inspire us to do so”.

SPA OF DISTINCTION

As a relatively new industry player, having launched their first flagship spa at the Radisson Hotel in Granger Bay in December 2007, ONEwellness has grown from strength to strength. Created by Queensgate Wellness Holdings, a subsidiary of Queensgate Hotels and Leisure, ONEwellness is no stranger to being in the spotlight of Les Nouvelles Esthetiques, having won the same award for ONEwellness Radisson in 2008, and Rob Cowling, Managing Director, having won the Spa Visionary award last year.

The spa's unique philosophy of integration between the worlds of fitness, spa and skincare is what sets it apart. Guests are assured of a personal, intimate and professional spa and wellness experience that is of the highest standard and the unique ONEwellness signature treatment, ONEjourney is a firm favourite for regular clients and first time visitors.

LES NOUVELLES ESTHETIQUES

Established in South Africa in 2005 due to the phenomenal growth in the spa industry, the awards concept was created to honour this flourishing market and those who excel in their field by acknowledging excellence and those who set the benchmark in quality and innovation within the Spa, Health & Wellness Industry.

Five award categories are offered, namely Day Spa, Safari Spa, Resort/Hotel/Destination Spa, Boutique Hotel Spa and Unique Spa Concept. These awards are regarded as a transparent and trustworthy measure of the spa industry and are South Africa's Spa Awards of Choice.

ONEwellness SANDTON ISLE

The spa opened its doors in November 2008 and services the general public as well as residents of the new Radisson Blu Hotel Sandton Isle. In keeping with the existing brand strategy, ONEwellness Sandton Isle comprises 10 multi-functional treatment rooms, including a duo-treatment room; change rooms with lockers; as well as a vitality pool with surrounding relaxation deck and loungers affording spectacular views over Gauteng.

A full range of Day Spa experiences, Touch Therapies, Body and Skin Care, and Essential Care treatments are offered to both male and female clientele, using international products such as Pevonia, Mama Mio and Dermalogica. In line with the “green”philosophy of the ONEwellness group, the unisex spa is environmentally friendly with the theme of ‘natural and organic' running throughout. This is reflected through the elegant decor that incorporates earthly tones and elements such as natural bamboo floors and cabinets to recyclable products and natural, environmentally friendly treatments.

The spa design, facilities and service culminates in one primary objective - total harmony and relaxation and the letting go of all “emotional toxins” in the safe, calm and soothing environment that is “ONEwellness”.

ONEwellness Sandton Isle is situated on the 10th floor of the Sandton Isle Building, Corner of Rivonia, Daisy and Linden Street in Sandton. For further information visit their website: www.onewellness.co.za
