Indulgence for body and mind

A Thai Herbal Ball Massage is a traditional Thai massage which incorporates the use of a steamed herbal ball, a key element to Thai Medicine.

These herbal compresses are packed with fresh or dried herbs such as kefir lime, lemongrass, tamarind leaves, turmeric, camphor, magnesium salt and Plai. These herbs are all praised for their relaxing, balancing and detoxifying properties (anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, astringent and antioxidant). The herbal balls are steamed and while hot, used as a compress throughout a Thai massage to aid in deeper muscle release and relaxation.

The warmth of the ball applied on the pressure points creates the healing effect on specific areas of the body. The hot compresses are ideal for alleviating pain, stiff, sore or pulled muscles and ligaments, chronic back aches, arthritis, inflammation, migraines and chronic stress or anxiety while giving the body an energy boost. This massage also cleanses and heals the skin by promoting cell growth, and aids upper respiratory ailments such as bronchitis, asthma, and the common cold. It also creates better circulation.
