Balinese massage is one of the most common forms of therapy in Indonesia. Its ancient origins and our Balinese therapists recommend it as one of the strengths of the Balinesse Spa. The technique of applying this traditional massage requires a whole science from the therapist.

This style of therapeutic massage has influences from the culture of China and India, being closely linked to Ayurvedic massage, a holistic medical system of Indian origin that aims to rebalance the body. In principle, only a professional therapist can perform a Balinese massage correctly, the secrets of the technique being well kept.

Our Bali therapists apply a variety of Asian massage techniques, working each muscle and using acupressure in the soles of the feet and palms, but also in other areas of the body. Also, the classic massage technique by kneading the muscles is used to a certain extent.

The therapist will ask you to lie down on the massage table face down. Your muscles will be stretched and kneaded, then work in the areas corresponding to the chakras.

During the session, reflexology techniques are used with skill, putting pressure on certain points on the legs, hands, ears and other areas. These reflex points correspond to different systems and organs in the body: heart, kidneys, liver, etc. Balinese massage not only relaxes, but also helps to cure various diseases or ailments.

Another benefit of Balinese massage is the recovery of energy and zest for life. This is done by combining the Asian technique of working on the chakras and muscles with the folding or kneading of the skin, which leads to increased blood circulation and oxygenation, thus the body receiving a surplus of energy.
