Bali SPA Techniques

The Indian hot stone SPA helps modern people quickly relax their tense spirit and relieve stress. It uses the huge energy and heat-resistant properties of stones to achieve deep muscle relaxation massage. It combines Western lymphatic detoxification and Chinese meridian principles, and is especially suitable for Oriental physiques. Using mineral-rich stones from Mount Agung, combined with essential oils and unique hot stone massage techniques, it can completely relieve physical and mental fatigue, eliminate toxins accumulated in daily life, and release stress and pain.

Volcanic mud is extremely rich in minerals and is very precious. It belongs to the earth's original mineral deposits. It contains material energy, is highly safe, has good adsorption, and has a pH close to that of human skin, making it especially suitable for Asian skin. Many high-end SPA centers in Bali offer mud bath SPAs made from all-natural volcanic ash. Its pollution-free, microbial-free, and chemical additive-free characteristics allow guests to use it safely.

Bali Specialty SPA Massage

1. Chocolate SPA

Using chocolate for SPA, this new beauty and body care method not only attracts customers who are looking for novelties in terms of its name, but its health and skin care effects make it difficult for many fashionable people to resist its temptation.

Hot chocolate, in particular, has a good soothing effect, which can promote skin blood circulation and remove aging epidermal cells, thus making the skin glow.

The seemingly ordinary small herbal ball contains the wisdom of traditional medicine and the magical effect of natural Asian grass.



3. Yoga therapy SPA

Yoga SPA originated from our ancestors observing the postures and forms of all things in life, and was inspired by them, and then changed and created and grew into "yoga posture therapy". Yoga SPA promotes body circulation by stretching the limbs, strengthens the functions of various parts, and cooperates with yoga breathing techniques to help us calm down tense emotions, and then through meditation and sitting, people can calm down and relax.
