Celeb-Loved Acupuncture Studios and Four-Tier Spas: The Wellness Destinations We Never Miss in London

Celeb-Loved Acupuncture Studios and Four-Tier Spas: The Wellness Destinations We Never Miss in London

London’s wellness scene is as diverse and sprawling as the city itself—a balance of old and new, from spas tucked into storied hotels to airy, California-inspired eateries. Whether you’re searching for the royal treatment or empathetic, longterm support, you’ll have your pick from a roster of Antevorta-beloved locales.

So, where to begin? True to form, we already put together a dream itinerary for your next visit to London. 

For a next-level wellness retreat:
It might be just steps away from some of the city’s busiest tourist attractions, but this four-level spa is a tranquil world unto its own. Nestled within one of London’s finest luxury hotels, ESPA Life offers an extensive menu of wellness, beauty, and fitness offerings—including an entire section dedicated to TCM. Come for the acupuncture and gong baths—and leave with a bag of Dr. Barbara Sturm products in tow.

 

A reliable blend of TCM-meets-luxury:

Rule of thumb: If there’s a Langham Hotel in the city we’re traveling to, chances are you’ll find us lounging in its TCM-centered Chuan Spa. (It’s one of our go-to stops in Los Angeles, too.) Its treatment menu mirrors the five elements of Traditional Chinese Medicine—earth, wood, fire, metal, and water—to help pair you with your ideal therapy. The spa also plays host to practitioners from the revered Asante Academy school of TCM—including Professor Song Ke, founder and principal, who has taught and practiced TCM for over 40 years.

No-nonsense acupuncture in the heart of London:
GinSen
Kensington and Chelsea
For those who’d rather forego the bells and whistles of a luxury spa in favor of straightforward support, GinSen’s two locations are high on Team Antevorta’s list. Whether you’re swinging by for one of its signature massage treatments, or aiming to spend a little more time on a specific diagnosis, you’ll be in good hands with one of GinSen’s many TCM-trained practitioners. 

 

A sweeping TCM experience to help restore balance:
Marylebone and Kensington

Perhaps you just need a little pick-me-up—or maybe you’re trying to get to the bottom of something deeper. Either way, you’re bound to find the cure to what ails you at this cult-fave destination, which delivers a large menu of TCM offerings from acupuncture and massage to herbal consultations.

A thoroughly modern take on centuries-old techniques:

Pricc
Notting Hill

Come for the bright, Instagrammable and celeb-frequented space—and take your pick from the quirky acupuncture treatment menu, with titles like the “Women Run the World” (for hormonal and vaginal health) and “The Chill Pill” (for stress, anxiety and insomnia). With treatments starting at £50 for 30 minutes, you can find a little bit of respite without breaking the bank.

Thoughtful support for fertility and hormonal health:

When you’re trying to get to the bottom of a reproductive health issue, it’s easy to be left with more questions than answers. Barr—a licensed acupuncturist with high-profile fans like Alexa Chung—specializes in women’s health issues, and leverages a five-element approach to treat everything from fertility challenges to grief.
