The Harmonising Ritual
The Empowering Ritual

Available only Monday to Friday, this unique spa experience is from Fairmont St Andrews' Modern Alchemy collection, and is the perfect weekday escape for pampering, rest and relaxation.

Enjoy full use of the luxurious spa facilities, followed by a 90-minute spa treatment choosing from either The Harmonising Ritual or The Empowering Ritual. The Harmonising Ritual is influenced by the power and symbolism of the full moon and is a deeply meditative journey defined by the fluid circularity of its massage movements. The Empowering Ritual is influenced by the symbolism of the new moon, a lunar phase representing an awakening of the spirit that invites us to plant new desires and intentions.

Complete your day with a signature cocktail in the Hotel Bar or a glass of Prosecco in the Kittocks Bar, and take a complimentary gift home with you to continue the feel-goof-factor.
