Downtown’s newest spa has opened in Bellevue.

Yuan Spa presents itself as an urban escape where holistic healing and health coexist to promote wellness and vitality. The 8,000 square-foot facility offers several relaxation areas and features a Northwest look with Asian accents throughout, including a hydrotherapy circuit of two bathing pools, therapeutic sauna room and eucalyptus steam room.

Owner Zee Zhang has opened two day spas (Redmond and Kirkland) in the past eight years.

“Our signature massage, called Tui-Na has been used in Chinese healing for over 2000 years,” Zhang said.  She explained that, although similar to traditional Western massage, “The intent of Tui-Na is more therapeutic in nature, focusing on specific acupressure points within the body, allowing harmonious flow of energy, or “Qi” throughout.”

Yuan Spa is located at 1032 106th Ave. NE, 425-449-8788, yuanspa.com
