Description News2021-10-06

You might already know many types of full body massage that exist around the world. Indeed, there are many variations of massage therapy. But for now, let's check 5 types of massage which is popular at Carla Spa.

  1. Balinese Massage
    Balinese massage is the most favourite type of massage in Bali. At Carla Spa, we also call it Full Body Massage because the massage covers the head, back and shoulders, hand, and the entire leg to the soles of the feet. The massage movements are gentle and slow, as the main goal is to relax the muscles. One characteristic of Balinese Massage is the use of oils and massage creams with a gentle and distinctive aroma, such as jasmine and frangipani. In addition, Balinese massage can improve blood circulation because of the stimulations on the muscle grooves.
  2. Warm Stone Massage
    This massage uses volcanic stones during the massage process. Usually, it's a basalt rock that retains heat for a long time. Some of the techniques are similar to Balinese massage, but instead of using their hands, the masseur will use the heated stones on most stimulation and pressure. After that, the stones will be placed on several points on the back, palms, and feet. This massage can also relieve tense muscles and improve blood circulation.
  3. Shiatsu Massage
    Shiatsu Massage uses different massage techniques from the previous two types. This Japanese massage relies on the use of the palms and the end of the thumbs. In addition, absolutely no oil or massage cream is used. Instead, pressure is given intensively on specific muscle points for several seconds to loosen stiff and sore muscle knots. Shiatsu massage helps relieve stress and makes your body feel fresher.
  4. Deep Tissue Massage
    If you have problems with the inner muscle tissue, you should try this massage. A firm and slow pressure during the massage can relieve muscle injuries and reduce excess muscle tension, usually after strenuous exercise or work. That's why the therapist will use his elbow on most of the stimulation. Even though it uses firm pressure, Deep Tissue Massage still provides a relaxing effect that you definitely need while exploring Bali.
  5. Thai Massage
    Thai massage is a combination of massage and yoga. Unlike other massages, the massage movement is dominated by stretching. Your therapist will assist you in stretching in various positions, including pulling the hands and feet, just like in a warm-up before exercise or yoga movements. The benefits are relaxing the muscle and improving blood circulation, as well as - of course - flexing your body.
