Looking to beat the heat in London this summer? Rejuvenate after your journey by booking a stay at Grace Belgravia, where you can indulge in a complete mind and body overhaul, complete with an intravenous drip experience.
Nestled in the heart of London’s Belgravia, The Grace Medical and Wellbeing Clinic offers a luxurious escape from the city buzz. It’s more than just a wellness center—it’s a haven where you can break a sweat, conduct business meetings, consult with expert physicians, and pamper yourself with cutting-edge beauty treatments, all under one roof. Tucked away in Knightsbridge, it’s conveniently close to iconic London landmarks like Harrods and Harvey Nichols.
At the helm of this oasis are Medical Director Dr. Tim Evans, who holds the esteemed title of Apothecary to HM The Queen and the Royal Palaces, and Head of Wellbeing Dr. Amy Bibby. Together, they curate a range of services designed to “restore, reset, and revive” both body and mind. Whether you’re seeking stress relief, jet lag recovery, weight loss, fitness goals, better sleep, or overall health management, they’ve got you covered. It’s the full package. And if you’re just passing through for the holidays, Grace offers summer memberships ranging from one week to three months.
Step inside, and you’ll find an airy lounge and restaurant—a serene escape from the bustling city streets. Here, women of all ages gather, some quietly working on laptops, others enjoying breakfast with friends. I decide to kick off my visit with a reformer pilates class in the gym. Despite its modest size, the gym is well-equipped and tranquil—just the setting to sculpt the physique you desire. It’s rumored that even Pippa Middleton, sister of the Duchess of Cambridge, honed her enviable figure here for her recent wedding. With only a few of us in the class, the instructor provides personalized attention, ensuring we maintain perfect alignment for maximum effectiveness.
Next on the agenda? A visit to the Peel Boutique By Dr. Rabia Malik for a quick twenty-minute facial. Dr. Malik offers three non-toxic medical-grade peels featuring lactic acid, designed to rejuvenate and brighten the skin while calming blemishes. As someone wary of peels due to horror stories of aggressive treatments gone wrong, I’m relieved to discover that Dr. Malik’s approach is gentle, using natural extracts from pineapple, pomegranate, and green tea. After the treatment, my skin feels refreshed and noticeably brighter—a marked improvement from its previous dry and blotchy state.
But the real adventure begins as I make my way to Grace’s medical center for the Infusion Clinic experience. Hooked up to an IV drip, I can’t help but feel like a character from a dystopian novel, but the promise of emerging supercharged for everyday life keeps me intrigued. Though the process isn’t painful, there’s a hint of queasiness as I voluntarily sit with the drip in my arm for 45 minutes. The bright yellow liquid—a blend of vitamin C, B vitamins, zinc, and amino acids—is touted to boost the immune system, increase energy, and combat jet lag. While it’s hard to discern immediate effects in the days following, some clients swear by weekly top-ups for sustained benefits. Whether it’s the drip or a combination of treatments, one thing’s for sure—I leave feeling refreshed and ready to take on the world.
So, if you’re curious about the latest in beauty and wellness trends, why not give it a try? After all, where else can you say you’ve been pumped full of vitamins like a futuristic superhero?
