Experience 3 treatments stemming from traditional and ancient Ayurvedic techniques that you can try.
1. Samyaksamadhi Ritual Massage
This olden massage treatment requires a wholesome combination of sound, vibration, and percussion through gently tapping the feet and body. A wooden tool is used to lightly tap parts of the body, which, in turn, releases tension and increases the strength of the muscle. This 90-minute treatment is perfect for those who wish to retain an overall sense of well-being, for those who want to attain peaceful mind, and those who wish to concentrate.
2. Traditional Balinese Massage
A practice handed down from one generation to the next, the traditional Balinese massage is used to ease muscular plain. This relaxing massage uses a combination of acupressure -- a technique that applies pressure to certain trigger points in the body -- and long strokes. The combined long strokes and the pressures on points works on the deep layers of the muscle tissue, relieving muscular pain and expelling negative toxins and energy which have built up in the body. This rejuvenating treatment lasts from 60 to 90 minutes.
3. Kemiri Massage
Kemiri takes its name after the local term for candlenut, a plant whose seeds are used as source of oil and spices. The seed's oil is quite similar to that of a macadamia nut in taste and texture. Aside from its use in the kitchen and the spa, the candlenut can also be a source ingredient for soap and shampoo. The seeds used in the Kemiri massage are freshly grated and prepared from a traditional kitchen. As the oil is rich in moisturizing properties, those who opt for this 60-minute massage treatment enjoy a soft, clean, and moisturized skin.
