Orient Spa has announced that it has secured an agreement to offer "extensive services" on two luxury trains in India, the Palace on Wheels and the Royal Rajasthan on Wheels.
The spa and wellness arm of Neesa Group said travellers onboard the trains are to be able to receive "exotic spa treatments alongside authentic Ayurveda therapies" as part of the deal.
Both of the trains have a dedicated Royal Spa carriage in which the services will be provided, with treatments including the Orient Signature Therapy and the Hot Stone Therapy.
The company believes that the agreement complements its existing presence in India, which includes seven cities and eight upscale hotels and resorts.
Orient Spa business head Sanjana Gupta said: "We have put together a plethora of Indian and international therapies that are compatible with the train movements, combined with extensive salon and beauty services.
"However, special thrust would be on Indian Ayurveda therapies, considering that foreigners are increasingly turning towards Ayurveda for health and healing requirements."
Meanwhile, Orient Spa has also confirmed its plan to open a fourth spa academy in the National Capital Region, to add to three existing sites in Kerala, Ahmedabad and Jaipur.
Gupta said that the expansion of the Indian spa market meant that the need for trained spa managers "is going to sky rocket", which Orient Spa's academies will help address.
