The Elemis Spa at Mohegan Sun Aims To Pamper with World-Class Treatments and Services

Mohegan Sun guests can balance a day of fun and games with plenty of relaxation at the property’s innovative Elemis Spa.  The 23,000 square-foot luxurious spa, which is housed on the third floor of Mohegan Sun’s 34-story, 1,200-room luxury hotel, offers a full-range of treatments and services. 

In 2005, the Elemis Spa at Mohegan Sun received the coveted 2005 Reader’s Choice Award from Spa Finder, Inc.  This prestigious award is presented to spas around the globe and is chosen by visitors of Spafinder.com and readers of Luxury SpaFinder Magazine, both of which attract an audience of millions of spa consumers annually.         

The signature Elemis method blends ancient healing therapies from around the world with therapeutic touch and powerful essential oils, sea plants and natural bases of the highest medical grade to create holistic aromatherapy treatments.  The Elemis Spa at Mohegan Sun combines signature Elemis treatments with authentic Mohegan themes and design elements to give guests a one-of-a-kind spa experience.

The Mohegan Sun facility offers a comprehensive range of treatment rooms and state-of-the-art equipment.  The Great Desert Retreat and the Great Fresh Water Retreat, which are separate relaxation areas for men and women, each contain a large jacuzzi, sauna, steam room and an array of books and magazines.  Two spacious suites – Father Sky and Mother Earth – are equipped with massage tables, a slipper-jacuzzi bath or sensory dry float bed and shower for treatment cycles.  Thirteen private treatment rooms are named for the 13 moons that mark the Tribe’s seasonal changes, with two that can be converted into one larger room – the Strawberry Moon Room – for couples’ massages. 
 
The full-service Fair Tree Hair and Nail Salon, with its eight-foot maple tree centerpiece, not only provides a complete range of hair and nail services but also honors the Mohegan tradition of celebrating social and spiritual occasions by dancing around the “Fair Tree.”  The Mohegan Fitness Center offers a fully equipped gym and a separate aerobics studio.  Fitness classes, personal training and body composition analysis are also available.

Founded in Great Britain in 1990, Elemis is a highly successful spa product retailer whose products can be found at many top health stores and spas around the world.  Elemis encourages each spa that enlists its services and products to create its own identity; except for its products and signature treatments, no two Elemis spas are alike.  Elemis does not test its products on animals, and constantly researches innovative ways to package them with minimal environmental impact.  In 2001, the company launched its spa therapy menu in North America and the Caribbean.  Steiner Leisure Limited, based in Coral Gables, Florida is the parent company of the Elemis Spa at Mohegan Sun. Steiner commissioned Stephen John Design to design the spa and beauty salon.
