The combination of ‘health and holiday’ is an increasingly attractive formula for mitigating the effects of busy urban lifestyle on one’s body and mind.
Spas, with their environmental features, are not just places for improving physical health, but are also ideal for reducing the wear and tear of daily activities. Using holistic concepts that lessen the effects of stress, aging and environment, spas seek to rediscover natural products and reintroduce them to today’s health conscious consumer.
The benefits derived from thermal/marine water therapy, aroma therapy and herbal therapy are immense; these all induce stress reduction and relief from muscle tension. Combined, they are known to be cures for joint disorders, they assist in detoxifying and exfoliating the skin and even re-mineralizing deficient skin cells. In Bali, many of the plant extracts used in the therapies are made from locally sourced flowers, roots and barks, such as: Jepun (frangipani), Jahe (ginger), Cendana (sandalwood), Kelapa (coconut), and even Bali Kopi (Balinese coffee grains). Many spas and salons prepare their own essential oils using age-old methods and recipes handed down through generations of beauty therapists.
