Nestled into the Hilton Toronto/Markham Suites Conference Centre is Canada’s first eforea: spa at Hilton. Â In addition to this location, eforea has 13 other locations worldwide in the U.S., New Zealand, Australia, Thailand, China, Azerbaijan, Qatar, and Romania.
The eforea: spa at Hilton Toronto /Markham is a 5000 square foot spa filled with all of the amenities you’d expect at a world class spa and many new and exciting ones. Â The spa boasts 13 treatment rooms and even a specially designed room for men that features furniture, decor, TV and amenities that are masculine yet relaxing.
When I first entered the spa I was immediately captivated by the curved walls and seamlessly flowing architecture. Â The free flowing waterfall and unique artwork add to the beauty of the space. The whole spa had an organic feel to it that was comforting, and soothing. Â With no sharp edges and all natural colours the spa at Hilton Toronto /Markham is a place you immediately want to sit down, relax and stay awhile.
The treatment rooms, change rooms, and common spaces are all inviting and serene. Â eforea spas are centered around three different journeys based on organic, natural and scientific practices that provide the client with a multitude of options geared towards the results they are looking for.
As a busy mom of twins, I opted for “the escape journey” enjoying the ‘nurturing massage.’ Â I loved the combination of Austrailian Aboriginal techniques and traditional massage therapy to provide a soothing, restorative and relaxing massage. Â I left feeling more centred, more relaxed and with a lot less knots in my muscles.
After the massage I moved onto part of “the essentials journey” and indulged in the ‘eforea Signature Correcting Facial’ a 80 minute treatment designed to correct sun damage, blemishes and uneven skin tone. Â It was wonderful! Â From a cooling mask to a series of cleansing treatments I left feeling like my skin was glowing both inside and out.
I loved that both of the women performing the spa services were knowledgeable, professional, kind and caring. Â I felt taken care of in every sense of the meaning.
The spa and hotel have joined together to create a delicious spa inspired menu  that can be enjoyed during your time at eforea. While there I would highly recommend you take time to enjoy the art, especially the beautiful instillation commissioned by the spa and created by a local artist.  It does a beautiful job capturing the essence of the spa.

My morning enjoying eforea: spa at Hilton was exactly what I needed. After a crazy hectic week I was in desperate need of some R&R. Â I loved the experience, appreciated the spa atmosphere and revelled in the treatments. Â Even though I live more than a couple of hours away, I will absolutely make a point of returning to this spa again very soon.
Disclosure: Â My spa treatments were complimentary in exchange of my review. Â All opinions are my own.Â
