Herbal Oil Massage
Herbal Oil Massage in Manama
Our signature ritual at DS Angel Spa, Crowne Plaza Hotel. A steaming Thai herbal compress of lemongrass, plai, and kaffir lime is pressed slowly along warmed, oiled muscle — a deeply restorative, aromatic experience. 75 min, BD 45.
The Ritual
Warmth and aroma, in the same breath.
Our signature ritual and the pinnacle of Thai wellness, the Herbal Oil Massage is a deeply restorative treatment that honors centuries of Thai tradition. It combines the warmth of an oil massage with the aromatic experience of a steaming Thai herbal compress to release tension and soothe the senses.
A steaming muslin ball packed with Thai herbs — including lemongrass, plai, and kaffir lime — is pressed slowly along warmed, oiled muscles. As the warmth opens the pores, the herbal aromas are released, allowing the experience to deepen throughout the session.
The natural scent of the steaming herbs provides an immediate calming effect, helping to ease stress, while the warmth from the compress helps relax the body and prepare the muscles for the oil massage that follows.
What to Expect
A genuine Thai herbal tradition.
The session begins with the warming of the herbal compress. Your therapist then combines flowing oil massage with the slow, pressing application of the steaming compress along the body. The warmth and aroma build throughout the session.
This treatment is a genuine example of Thai herbal practice, performed with the precision and respect the tradition deserves. It is recommended for anyone wishing to experience a true, authentic Thai herbal ritual.
