Unlike any other spa in Israel, Yoko Kitahara’s professionalism, precise treatment methods combining eastern and western techniques, and a skillful pool of well-trained therapists make it a quality destination for peace-of-mind and body. Its unique menu of treatments, including the ‘Hogushi Aroma’ and ‘Hogushi Premium’ options, boast completely original, signature offerings, a step beyond other spa and wellness centers. Yoko Kitahara, named for its Japanese owner who hails from Tokyo, prides itself as being a place that actually restores your energy and balance.

The spa’s goal is to help each and every guest in his or her search for reconnecting to nature by awakening the five senses and feeling one’s own inner personal energy; reaching for the “feeling rather than thinking” inner spot. It is an ideal fit for a couple or individual massage, or, as a gift for a special occasion; the welcoming space beckons guests to sit, relax, spend time in serenity on the stunning rooftop with panoramic Mediterranean views, and stay awhile.
As you walk up the steps just outside of Kedumim Square and entering the marble-floored, minimalist, yet vast space, the senses are instantly set to ‘chill mode.’ Have a eucalyptus-infused foot bath to start, and then take a gander at the handpicked artisanal toiletries, bathing essentials, padded slippers, and imported Japanese teas like black sesame and soba wheat. All the products used and sold in the spa are entirely organic and elegantly displayed. Yoko Kitahara is also convenient for strolling in the nearby alleyways and Jaffa’s ancient port.
