Aromatherapy Massage

Aroma massage is the everyday name for an aromatherapy massage: a gentle full-body oil massage. The therapist blends the essential oil you choose before the massage with a carrier oil and works it into your skin with flowing strokes. Your body lets go and the scent slowly draws you into deep calm.

Yes. Before the massage you smell several essential oils and, depending on your mood, choose the one you like best: perhaps lemongrass, lavender, rosemary, chamomile or kaffir lime. The scents change with the seasons.

Above all, it helps to melt away stress and lift your mood. It suits people with desk jobs, first-time guests and anyone weighed down by fatigue or restless thoughts. The nourishing oil also leaves your skin supple.

An aromatherapy massage also works with the scent of an essential oil you choose yourself, and with its effect on your mood. The Thai oil massage uses unscented oil, so it suits anyone who does not get on with scents.

We use quality oils free of parabens and artificial colourants, plus body lotion and balm where needed. If you have sensitive skin or are allergic to a scent, tell us in advance and we will choose a suitable option.

A volatile, fragrant liquid drawn from a plant by steam distillation or by pressing. In Thai it is nam man hom raheoy, literally ‘fragrant oil that evaporates’. It never goes on the skin on its own: for a massage it is always diluted in massage oil.

The pressure is gentle to medium, the strokes are slow and flowing, and you choose the scent yourself, with help from reception. You lie first on your front, then on your back, as the therapist works through your whole body from neck to feet. For a first visit we recommend 90 minutes.

Yes, the oil goes directly on the skin. You keep your underwear on (disposable underwear is ready if you prefer it), and on the massage table we cover you with a towel, so only the part of the body the therapist is working on is ever uncovered. You don’t need to bring anything special; for details see What to bring to a massage.

You can choose 60, 90 or 120 minutes. Book online, by phone on +420 734 331 444 or via WhatsApp. Cancelling or changing your booking is free up to 24 hours ahead.
