WTS International designs pioneering wellness facility in Kuala Lumpur
Spa, fitness and lifestyle consultancy WTS International (WTS) has debuted its latest venture, the newly-opened EOS Wellness facility in Kuala Lumpur's St Mary Residences.
The project has been completed in conjunction with Eastern & Oriental Berhad (E&O), a Malaysian lifestyle property development group. E&O is introducing EOS Wellness as part of a broader strategy to nurture a wellness pillar to complement its core property development business. WTS was responsible for the concept, design and pre-opening of the property, and will also manage it.
The 7,400sq ft (687sq m) EOS Wellness spa features four single ‘Curo’ treatment rooms, and two couples ‘Duo’ rooms with the latest in wellness equipment, including a full-spectrum infrared sauna, a Jason MicroSilk Hydrotherapy bath and a Gharieni 360-degree floating bed that replicates a Watsu experience on water, as the tabletop glides back and forth during the treatment.
Two studios have been designed at an elevated space overlooking a saltwater pool. The ‘Flow’ studio is used by guests to relax, unwind and improve psychological wellbeing, and can be used for personal training and meditation, as well as bespoke wellness sessions, while a ‘Fit’ studio can accommodate group exercise classes such as yoga and Zumba.
A Relaxation Lounge opens onto an outdoor relaxation area, complete with al fresco spa dining.
“EOS Wellness is a pioneering spa and fitness facility, and it has been a pleasure to work on this project with the team at E&O,” said Mary Lynn Mellinger, director of planning and design for WTS International. “We’ve gathered the very latest equipment and facilities and married them with indulgent, results-driven treatments for a true holistic wellness experience.”
Carolyn Peh, assistant general manager at EOS Wellness, said: “When it comes to wellbeing, we don’t believe in compromising on expertise or quality, which is why we chose to partner with WTS International. It designed and opened more than 300 properties in over 30 countries and has decades of spa, fitness and lifestyle experience.
"We see EOS Wellness becoming a vital component in E&O’s wellness pillar, which we are currently shaping as a fitting complement to our properties.”
