Hot herbal compress reflexology

Service Description

Hot Herbal Compress Massage can be added to your existing Reflexology treatment or received as a stand alone therapy. It helps boost emotional well-being while soothing aching muscles and stiff joints. Sticking to traditional techniques, a muslin cloth is infused with herbs, flowers and spices and then steamed to release their medicinal properties. Your therapist will then move the compress balls across your face, neck and shoulders or feet, creating a series of circular motions to aid the release of toxins and penetrate heat into the tissues. Each therapist uses their own blend of herbs, but a mix of lemongrass, turmeric, rose flowers, kaffir lime leaves and camphor are our favourites. Treatments usually last 60-90 minutes, this irresistible pick-me-up feels and smells wonderful! Suffer from plant allergies? Just ask your therapist what herbs are used when you book and they’ll be able to tailor your treatment accordingly. Did you know that Herbal Compress Massage has been practiced since the 14th century? It has been said that Thai royalty were massive fans of the treatment as well as soldiers suffering from muscular pain after battle. Well, if it’s good enough for them...
