ERKLÄRUNGEN ZU IHREN BEHANDLUNGEN
VITAL-ESSENZ-ÖL-MASSAGE
Kamalayas einzigartige Vital-Essenz-Öl-Massage kombiniert asiatisches Wissen über Energieprinzipien mit der Wissenschaft der Aromatherapie, um die perfekte Verbindung zwischen östlicher und westlicher Heilkunst zu schaffen. Diese magische und harmonisierende Erfahrung ist ein einfacher und effektiver Weg, um Spannungen loszulassen, Ihre Gesundheit zu verbessern, Ihre Emotionen auszugleichen und Ihr Leben zu verbessern. Eines unserer ätherischen Fünf-Elemente-Öle wird passend zur Konstitution Ihres Körpers ausgewählt: Wasser, Holz (Luft), Feuer, Erde und Metall (Äther).
KÖNIGLICHE AYURVEDISCHE MASSAGE
Eine traditionelle indische Massage, bei der eine Kombination aus beruhigenden und symmetrischen langen Streich-Bewegungen verwendet wird, um das Kreislauf- und Nervensystem des Körpers zu regulieren. Diese entgiftende Therapie verwendet warmes Kräuter-Heilöl, damit Sie sich erfrischt, ausgeglichen und verjüngt fühlen. Die Öle werden großzügig über den gesamten Körper gegossen und dann kräftig in die Haut einmassiert. Diese traditionelle indische Massage entgiftet Ihren Körper und revitalisiert Ihren Geist. Im Anschluss an diese Massage wird ein Dampfbad empfohlen.
TRADITIONELLE THAILÄNDISCHE MASSAGE
Die Thai-Massage basiert auf der Entdeckung von zehn unsichtbaren Energielinien, Sen genannt, die entlang des Körpers verlaufen. Ihre Reise zu neuem Wohlbefinden beginnt mit einer meisterhaften Kombination aus thailändischen Dehnungstechniken und einer Druckpunktmassage, die auf das Tiefengewebe abzielt. Dadurch wird die Durchblutung angeregt, Giftstoffe werden freigesetzt, und der Körper kann sich auf natürliche Weise selbst heilen und seine Geschmeidigkeit wiederherstellen. Die tägliche Thai-Massage kann helfen, das Tempo des Entgiftungsprozesses zu beschleunigen und etwaige Beschwerden zu reduzieren. Diese Behandlung ist mit oder ohne die Verwendung einer heißen Kräuterkompresse möglich. Die heiße Kräuterkompresse ist eine uralte thailändische Heiltradition. Sie verwendet eine wirkungsvolle Kräutermischung, die Energiebahnen öffnet und damit direkt das Gehirn anspricht. Das Gefühl, geistig umnebelt zu sein, verschwindet, der Geist wird beruhigt und besänftigt.
