Certified therapists from Thailand
Hot herbal compresses have been used in Thailand for many generations. Their composition may vary depending on the region and tradition, but aromatic herbs and plants are commonly used. The compresses we use contain lemongrass, plai (Thai ginger), turmeric, kaffir lime and tamarind. Steamed herbs emit a gentle natural aroma that becomes an integral part of the session. The herbal mixture is wrapped in a cotton cloth, heated in steam and used throughout the massage. This traditional method of preparation gives authenticity to the session, and the gentle warmth of the compresses helps to create a cozy atmosphere of relaxation.
Who it is for
Who is Thai herbal compress massage for?
Thai herbal compress massage is especially suitable in the cold season, when you want more warmth and coziness. It is often chosen by people who feel muscle tension, discomfort in the back or shoulders, as well as those who spend a lot of time sitting. This session also appeals to clients who have already tried a relaxing warm oil or aromatherapy massage and want to discover a different Thai massage experience. A herbal compress massage is also a great choice for gifts - an exclusive session that leaves a pleasant impression.
The warmth and aroma of warm herbal compresses turn the session into a particularly cozy ritual in the cooler season.

Herbal compresses are cloth bags with natural Thai herbs. Our compresses use lemongrass, plai (Thai ginger), turmeric, kaffir lime and tamarind. Before the session, they are heated with steam, and during the massage, the pleasant warmth and natural aroma become an integral part of the session.
You can choose the session with or without warm natural coconut oil. During booking, the reception team will inquire about your request.
This session is only carried out when we can ensure a quality supply of herbal compresses from Thailand. As a result, it is not offered year-round. We recommend that you check whether the session is currently in progress before booking.
Steamed herbal compresses are used during herbal compress massage, and heated basalt stones are used during hot stone massage. Both sessions are full-body massages, but differ in the techniques used, the feeling of warmth and the atmosphere of the session itself.
No special attire is required - come as you are comfortable. We will take care of everything you need during the session. We recommend arriving without jewelry.
