The Forbes Five Star rated, award-winning Wellness Floor at One Dalton at Four Seasons Hotel One Dalton Street, Boston is launching five new rituals developed in partnership with GROUND WELLBEING. The Spa first launched The Sleep Ritual in late 2022, expanding its wellness offerings to help guests find a deep sense of relaxation. The Sleep Ritual is a custom treatment that includes breathing exercises, aromatherapy and massage to promote deep and restful sleep.

The five new rituals allow guests to feel grounded and comforted, and tap into the body’s ability to self-repair and re-align. These experiences are designed for those who are pregnant, experiencing menopausal symptoms, or those who just need to ease the stress and anxiety of everyday life.

The new wellness rituals include:

The Grounding Ritual: Surrender in full to ease stress and anxiety

Allow for sacred time to create a deep sense of connection between the mind and body. This treatment taps into the body's ability to self-repair and re-align to feel replenished. Focused on the back of the body, the feet and areas that are prone to tightness, the massage is performed in long, flowing movements, working the full length of the body. Perfect for those who are seated for much of the day and want to feel more present, this will melt away tension.

The Comforting Ritual: Pregnancy care for the second and third trimester

A deeply comforting treatment for mom-to-be to soothe and release tired muscles with relief to aches, pains and fluid retention. This intuitive massage is designed with gentle yet firm rhythmic movements focused on the shoulders, back, hips and lower legs as the body grows and glows with each trimester. Moms can enhance the experience by opting for the 90 minute treatment, which includes 30 minutes of massage and gua sha techniques on the face and scalp.

The Balancing Ritual: Empowering through menopausal change

Designed with women in mind, this hands-on approach to wellbeing is truly holistic. Each massage is highly customized, beginning with an aromatherapy foot bath and breath work. The treatment features elements of reflexology and lymphatic drainage to stimulate circulation with the option to include a cold stone massage and gua sha. This unique and purposeful massage will bring alignment to balance the symptoms of menopause at any stage.

The Hug Ritual: Supporting the body during or after cancer treatments

This bespoke ritual addresses specific skin and body conditions while supporting the immune system, improving range of motion, enhancing the lymphatic system, encouraging better sleep, reducing pain and inflammation, and releasing scar tissue. With a choice of four Touch Therapy Rituals including Peripheral Neuropathy Hand and Foot Syndrome, Scar Tissue Release, Head and Scalp Massage or Lymphatic Support, each therapy is carefully curated to address the specific needs of each guest. The treatment concludes with either a touch therapy massage or facial to completely relax the body and mind.

The Rooted Repair Ritual: Reconnect with Mother Earth to tap into the body’s ability to re-align

Commencing with an aromatherapy foot soak, mindful breath work and a peet mask application to the feet, this is a deeply grounding treatment. While the nourishing and invigorating mask penetrates the feet, the treatment focuses on a soothing hand massage. The finishing touch is a personalized foot massage with a choice of Ground Wellbeing oil or balm.

The Wellness Floor at One Dalton is an entire floor dedicated to holistic and innovative experiences. The Spa features five treatment suites, steam rooms, rainfall showers and a relaxation room overlooking the city. The state-of-the-art fitness centre has floor-to-ceiling windows with sweeping views of Back Bay; and the stunning 64 foot (20 metre) curved swimming pool features an underwater sound system and stylish poolside lounge for the ultimate in luxury pampering.
