11 December 2006, Hong Kong is proud to be the first and only spa in Hong Kong to launch the ultimate spa journey by Thalgo – Indocéane, a sensorial voyage to experience and discover the secrets of wellbeing of four different cultures from the Orient.



In bustling Hong Kong, work, pollution and daily life take an increasing toll on the body. In response to your quest for better-being, Indocéane brings you across the oceans to harness the relaxing power of the Mediterranean, Egypt, India and China and experience a true Vital Relaxation initiation ritual.

Specialist in Marine Cosmetology for over 40 years, Thalgo has also discovered and incorporated in Indocéane’s product range, Qi-marineTM, a powerful and proven cellular stress-relieving marine active ingredient, which works in synergy with the soothing Sacred Lotus to optimize the ritual’s relaxing power.

Mediterranean Step (The land where the cult of purity and water rituals continues):

The Indocéane journey begins with a purifying body exfoliation with the Sweet and Savoury Body Scrub, containing Qi-marineTM, , Sacred Lotus, Brown Sugar, Salt and Mediterranean Essential Oils.

Egyptian Step (The land of Eternity, where the Goddess would soak her body in milk):

The second step basks you in a creamy and sensual milk bath with soothing musky scents.

Indian Step (The land of Ayurveda, where you are told to have your body unwind to release its spirit):

This is the massage step of the ritual. Oriental and Chinese massage methods are combined in this unique sculpting massage. To start, Qi-balm, a concentrate of Qi-marineTM, will be massaged to the energy centres to release tensions and prepare the body for the massage which follows.

Chinese Step (The land where beauty takes centre stage as if in the theatre, where faces are painted white and eternal youth is preserved):

Round off the ritual with the velvety and fragrant body wrap containing Qi-marineTM , rice bran oil and Scared Lotus.
