Seminyak is known for 3 things: high-end fashion, luxury lodgings, and spa treatments. Accommodations in this area of Bali, like Umalas Hotel & Residence, offer in-house spas that save their guests the hassle of taking trips before and after a relaxing treatment. Here are some of the choices that are readily available in Seminyak spas.

1. Lurlur Ritual
Once reserved for Javanese royalties to prepare and pamper them for their weddings, the lurlur has become one one of the staple offerings of spas all over the country. This treatment involves the application of a mixture of rice powder and spices as scrub, which is then followed by fresh yogurt and body lotion. This leaves the skin soft, supple, and radiant.

2. Chocolate Massage
This sweet treat has found a place outside our hearts and palates since it has been discovered to have properties that leave the skin healthier, firmer, and moisturized. The caffeine in the chocolate is said to stimulate blood circulation and heal the skin by preventing aging and loss of elasticity. The oils in chocolate are recommended for dry skin and rough patches like elbows, knees, and soles. Chocolate also causes the brain to feel euphoria.

3. Stone Massage
For this treatment, stones act as an extension of the therapist's hands. The hot and cold stones are placed in specific points to warm the muscles while the rest of the body is massaged.

4. Shiatsu Massage
Similar to acupuncture, shiatsu focuses on balancing the flow of energy in the body by stimulating meridians or pressure points. Instead of needles, a shiatsu massage makes use of finger pressure, hence its name: 'shi' for finger and 'atsu' for pressure. The treatment is said to improve blood circulation and provide relief both mind and body.

5. Herbal Massage
Herbal massages make use of a concoction made up of leaves and spices, which is scrubbed all over the body. The herbal pouches are usually filled with lemongrass, clovers, lime, tamarind, and ginger. The combined effect of the scrub, oils, spices, and massage relieves the body of stress and fatigue, among many other positive effects.

People who have long ago discovered the joys of massage can easily choose a spa in a hotel accommodation in Kuta, Bali and point out which treatment they would like to have. Of course, if you have a specific part of your body or condition that you want to focus on, or you want to try out a new treatment, you can always ask your therapist's recommendation. If you're staying in Seminyak, Bali, drop by Umalas Hotel & Residence's spa for any of these treatments.
