| The five-star spa at Mandarin Oriental, New York has introduced oxygen-intensified healing waters in its men’s and women’s Vitality Pools with the installation of what it claims to be breakthrough technology from Oxygen Pur Spa. The Oxygen Pur Spa is now available for the first time, offering guests, on a complimentary basis, a wellness experience it claims no other spa currently has. It is apparently designed to enhance the therapeutic benefits of oxygen to spa-goers for increased wellbeing. For decades oxygen has been prescribed by medical professionals for its healing benefits and has now become an anti-aging treatment within the industry. Mandarin Oriental, New York has responded to the growing use of oxygen in beauty treatments as the Spa’s Vitality Pools now feature saturated levels of dissolved oxygen, 20 times greater than is found in normal tap water. By using the pools guests can absorb increased oxygen through their skin, the largest organ in the body, enhancing oxygen levels in body tissue. The benefits of increased oxygen can include better skin cell respiration, reducing fine lines, age spots and wrinkles, to reveal clearer, softer and healthier skin. Boosted oxygen levels can it is claimed also assist in the release of toxins through the skin, improving circulation and elevating energy levels in the body. Mandarin Oriental, New York Assistant Spa Director, Nicole Yih has said, “Oxygen is known to enhance skin cell metabolism to promote healing and healthier skin, in addition to stimulating the lymph system to transport impurities from the body.” Yih recommends that guests soak in the waters for a minimum of 10 to 15 minutes in order to experience the benefits. |
