Philosophy

In traditional Chinese philosophy, "chi" is the universal life force that governs well-being and personal vitality. For people to maintain good health, it is believed that chi must flow freely within the body, and when blocked, "dis-ease" and illness follow. Movement is therefore a key element in releasing these natural blockages. Exercise, stretching, massage, hydrotherapy and movement of the mind through relaxation and meditation combine to assist the body's natural renewal and form the basis of the CHI, The Spa philosophy.

Developed by a team of experts, CHI's signature therapies are based on the Five Elements Theory, in which Metal, Water, Wood, Fire and Earth are in balance to harmonise with the positive Yang and negative Yin energy within the body. For balance to occur, the harmony of Yin and Yang must be restored. Discover your personal Element Signs

CHI also draws inspiration from the origin of the Shangri-La legend, high in the mystical Himalayan mountains. From this magical world, secrets are revived and re-created to bring you, for the first time, a unique spa concept fusing ancient healing traditions, philosophies and rituals from China and the Himalayas.
