Domaine Henri Giraud Receives the Gold Trophy for 'Best Signature Spa Treatment' in France
This past weekend in Paris, at the International Aesthetics & Spa Congress organised by the magazine Les Nouvelles Esthétiques, Domaine Henri Giraud was awarded the Gold Trophy for Best Signature Spa Treatment. This distinction consecrates the excellence and singular nature of Craÿothérapie®, a signature treatment born in the heart of the Champenois terroir, and affirms the Domaine's standing among the most exclusive wellness destinations in France.
Profoundly rooted in the geology and identity of Champagne, Domaine Henri Giraud has always cultivated an exceptional relationship with chalk. The founding element of its Champagnes' character, this immaculately white calcareous substrate — present beneath every vine, beneath every cellar — constitutes the mineral soul of the House. It is from this intimate conviction that Craÿothérapie® was born: an unprecedented treatment protocol conceived as a natural extension of the Domaine's philosophy, wherein the excellence of the terroir enters into dialogue with the sciences of well-being.
Created by Dr Anne Le Golvet-Giraud — daughter of Claude Giraud and heiress to a dual heritage of viticulture and medicine — Craÿothérapie® embodies a holistic and scientific approach to care. Formulated from rigorously selected Champenois chalk, this exclusive therapy deploys potent remineralising, soothing, restorative and deeply relaxing properties, offering the skin a profound regeneration and the spirit an absolute serenity.
Craÿothérapie® is offered exclusively within the thermal baths of Manoir Henri Giraud, a setting of refined elegance nestled at the heart of the Aÿ vineyard in Champagne. This sanctuary of well-being, conceived with the same exacting standards as the House's cuvées, offers total immersion in the sensory universe of Champagne. The complete Craÿothérapie® protocol constitutes a sensory journey in its own right: mineral envelopments, exclusive massages with micronised chalk, remineralising facial treatments and relaxation rituals unfold in a carefully considered progression designed to reveal the very quintessence of well-being. Each gesture, each texture, each fragrance evokes the Champenois earth and the calcareous depths that lend it its singular character.
A Gold Trophy consecrating a vision of excellence Awarded within the framework of the International Aesthetics & Spa Congress organised by Les Nouvelles Esthétiques — a professional journal of reference since 1952 and a historic, pre-eminent voice in the beauty and spa industry — the Gold Trophy for Best Signature Spa Treatment represents the highest recognition conferred by peers within the sector. This accolade validates the work of research and creation undertaken by Dr Anne Le Golvet-Giraud, as well as the overarching vision of Domaine Henri Giraud: that of a family house possessed of the rare ability to transpose the intelligence of its terroir into every expression of the art of living.
