Marathon offers from Park Plaza Hotels

If you’re running this year’s London Marathon, reward yourself with a discounted sports massage, on offer at three participating central London Park Plaza hotels.

Simply bring your medal with you to one of the two Aurora Spas, found at Park Plaza Sherlock Holmes on Baker Street and Park Plaza County Hall by the South Bank, and claim a 20% discount on a De-stress Muscle Release Massage. At Victoria Therapy Suite at Park Plaza Victoria London – just minutes from the finishing line – runners will enjoy a 20% saving on a 30 or 60-minute Sports Massage.

The De-stress Muscle Release Massage is a 30-minute treatment which focuses on the areas of the legs and feet that bear the most stress and strain during running. The intensive massage uses essential oils, including ginger, rosemary and black pepper, to stimulate and invigorate the muscles and will cost just £36 to race competitors.

The Sports Massage offers tension relief and helps maintain healthy muscles. The therapist isolates areas of soft tissue by applying deep pressure, stretching and gentle rocking to aid joint mobilisation. With the 20% discount, the 30-minute treatment will cost £28 and the 60-minute version just £52.

Visit the Aurora Spa (aurora-wellbeing.com) at Park Plaza Sherlock Holmes London (parkplazasherlockholmes.com) for a wide range of beauty treatments and massages. This boutique hotel is a converted Victorian townhouse and offers comfortable plushness blended with cosy furnishings.
