Balinese massage

Balinese massage is one of the Indonesian massage customs. This massage originated from the Island of Bali. Since it uses the combination of Acupressure, Reflexology, and Aromatherapy it stands as a unique massage. Several medical practices and essential oil scented with aromas of rose, jasmine, sandal wood, and coconut are brought together in this massage. The people of Bali felt that in order to have true relaxation and calm mind the body should possess good blood and oxygen circulation.

This massage makes the patients feel relax and calm throughout and hence it is known as Balinese massage. This technique includes skin rolling, stocking, kneading etc. In this massage the aromatherapy oil is applied throughout the massage. As a result of this treatment a patient's blood, oxygen and energy flow is said to increase. Another option for this is Balinese hot stones.

People who receive this massage therapy are made to lie on a conservative massage table or on a spongy mat on the floor. The therapists pay a great deal of attention to the selection of massage oil which is generally applied at the room temperature. For uplifting the poor health or a painful body part, lemon grass, cloves and ginger is applied along with the warmed oil. The overall perfume of the Balinese massage therapy helps a person to feel relaxed and to promote body luxury. It also helps to get a quick recovery from the nervousness and unhealthy tension.
