奢華養生村，城市綠洲新登場
在南非約翰尼斯堡北郊，一處把「豪宅」和「療癒度假」融合的生活場域正在成形：Steyn City 的 Saxon Spa 正式開幕。
這座兩層、約 1,400 平方米 的水療空間，投資金額約美金 3.2M，由 Design Collective（Amanda Elliott、Matthew Fogg）操刀，設計以 四元素（水、火、土、風） 為語彙，試圖把戶外的寧靜帶到室內。從九間療程房，到以本地工藝為驕傲的裝置，這是一個既有豪奢感又能呼吸的空間。
設施亮點：水療與聲波音療
Saxon Spa 的設備把傳統水療升級成「體驗循環」：
- 水療循環：溫/冷池、熱力浴池、蒸氣室、桑拿。
- 特色療程：Quantum Harmonics（Gharieni 設備）—振動 + 音景的聲音療癒；戶外露台做瑜伽與能量練習。
- 工藝亮點：9 間房間內吊著由 Stephen Pikus 用回收玻璃製作的燈飾；hydro circuit 上有 Mosaic Art 的訂製馬賽克。
在這裡，你的身體既被水洗滌，也被聲音輕柔調頻。
95 分鐘的，科學養生方程式
Saxon Spa 引進的療程與產品帶有明顯地域性：
- 招牌 95 分鐘 Soul by Saxon：杏仁核＋Rooibos 擦拭 → Shea、Aloe ferox、Moringa、African potato 滋養 → Imbola 河泥面膜 → 深層按摩（Marula + Cape geranium）。另有：Digital Detox、vibracoustic journey（量子諧波）等。
據說一位早到的客人在振動椅上 20 分鐘後，半夢半醒地說「我剛被地球按了個重新啟動鍵」，療效感受，聽起來迷人又有點科幻。
大場域生態：不是只有spa
Steyn City 是一個把生活樣貌放大的 mega-estate，集齊元休閒設施 / 住宅社區 / 飯店住宿，這不只是「度假村」，而是把「度假模式」變成日常選項的生活實驗。
Luxury Wellness Village: A New Urban Oasis
On the northern edge of Johannesburg, Steyn City has just opened a sanctuary: the Saxon Spa.
The two-storey, 1,400 sqm spa was built with roughly R56 million (~USD 3.2M) and designed by Design Collective’s Amanda Elliott and Matthew Fogg. Inspired by the four elements—water, fire, earth, air—the spa brings outdoor calm indoors.
With nine treatment rooms and a heavy nod to South African craftsmanship, it’s luxe without the stiffness—a place you can actually exhale in.
Hydro + Harmonics
The spa upgrades traditional hydrotherapy into an experiential circuit:
- Hydrotherapy circuit: hot & cold plunge, heated vitality pools, flotation pool, steamroom, sauna.
- Signature tech: Quantum Harmonics (Gharieni) — vibrational frequencies plus bespoke soundscapes; outdoor deck for yoga and holistic sessions.
- Craft & art: recycled-glass chandeliers by Stephen Pikus in nine rooms; a bespoke Mosaic Art installation in the hydro circuit.
In short: your body gets rinsed by water and retuned by sound.
A 95-Minute Formula for Scientific Wellness
- Treatments and product highlights are regionally rooted:
- Soul by Saxon (95 min): apricot kernel & rooibos exfoliation → shea, aloe ferox, moringa, African potato nourishment → imbola river clay mask → deep tissue massage with marula & Cape geranium oils.
- Also on menu: Digital Detox Journey and vibracoustic Quantum Harmonics sessions.
- Mini anecdote: an early guest reportedly left the vibracoustic lounger saying, “It was like my body hit a reboot button”—part spa, part sci-fi, wholly persuasive.
Wellness Expanded:Where Spa Is Only the Beginning
Steyn City is a mega-estate that amplifies the way we live—bringing together leisure facilities, residential communities, and hotel stays. It’s not just a “resort,” but a lifestyle experiment that turns the vacation mode into an everyday option.
