Kohler has opened its fifth spa in Chicago. The Kohler Waters Spa Lincoln Park has a 20,000sq ft spa, designed to leverage the healing powers of water.

Spas director, Nicole Miller, told Spa Business: “Kohler is a global leader in plumbing products and we used our internal team to build our brand in Chicago, including the design, spa offerings and treatments.”

This site joins five other Kohler Company wellness destinations: Kohler Waters Spa at the American Club in Kohler, Wisconsin; Lodge Kohler in Green Bay, Wisconsin, and Burr Ridge Illinois, and the Old Course Hotel and Spa in St Andrews, Scotland.

With 21 treatment rooms, including two couple’s massage suites, the Chicago spa offers hydrotherapy treatments, facials, massages and body treatments.

Facilities include two Kohler custom Vichy showers, a thermal suite, steamroom, sauna, cool plunge pool and Kohler’s exclusive hydro-massage experience pool.

Designed by Kohler’s executive chair, Herb Kohler, the experience pool has five half-circle coves with a gooseneck waterfall and has been planned to guide guests through a journey of different massage jets.

Phytomer has been chosen as product house, the French brand manufactures products from active marine ingredients.

The spa also includes two Gharieni MLR wet wellness beds.

Playing to its city location, the spa offers 25-minute express massage, facial and nail treatments from Monday to Thursday to appeal to time-poor clients.

The property is also home to a hair and nail salon and boutique store. Located in the lobby area, the shop retails spa and beauty products.
