At the Regent Beijing hotel, sunlight floods the spa reception area, where colorful Buddhist art and the burble of a fountain offer a warm welcome even on frigid days. Young staffers speak little English, so anyone with special needs should alert the bilingual manager before following his or her therapist into one of 13 high-ceilinged, low-lit rooms with intricately carved screens. Traditional Chinese treatments are available, but the four-handed Jing Chen massage ($180) uses healing practices from farther afield, including Thai, Balinese, and Swedish strokes (massages, $92).
