RETRAITES DE BIEN-ÊTRE PRIMÉES À KOH SAMUI, THAÏLANDE

Naturopathic Medicine combines the healing traditions of ancient India, China, and Europe with Western herbal medicine and modern scientific principles and technology. Naturopathic treatments include herbal medicine, nutrition and detoxification, flower remedies and homeopathy.  Naturopathy draws on a wide array of natural healing intervention and diagnostic techniques to promote optimal health and to treat as well as prevent disease.

Wellness Consultation
An initial Wellness Consultation is included with every Kamalaya stay. During this orientation, one of our Holistic Consultants will talk with you about your wellness concerns and goals and then advise you on the best treatment plan to maximise the benefit of your stay.

Wellness Follow-up Consultation
Many of our scheduled Wellness Programs include a follow-up consultation. You may choose to see one of our Holistic Consultants to review the progress of your program.

Naturopathic Consultation
Our ancestors knew the healing power of plants. In modern times, methods have been devised to extract the healing compounds from medicinal plants. Naturopaths utilise herbs for short or long term treatment to support, heal, nourish, stimulate, or strengthen the body or body systems. A wide range of acute or chronic ailments can be addressed. The use of medicinal herbs promotes self-healing, greater wellbeing and prevention of disease. During a Naturopathic Consultation the practitioner looks at the person as a whole, reviewing signs and symptoms of all body systems, lifestyle and a brief review of diet. Treatment may include an individualised liquid herbal extract preparation, nutritional supplements, and ways to optimise diet and lifestyle may also be discussed.

Nutritional Guidance
Healthy eating is an integral part of Naturopathy. The Naturopath will discuss your nutritional goals and look at current dietary patterns. Beneficial for people who already follow a ‘healthy diet’ as well as those who have little or no nutritional knowledge, this session gives plenty of easy to implement take home advice and takes an educational look at how foods work in the body. Individualised nutritional
advice will be provided for any specific health conditions. Kamalaya emphasises wholesome food, as dietary habits play an important role in preventative and curative aspects of health. Nutrition plays a major role in restoring and maintaining health by supplying necessary nutrients to body cells for energy production, tissue repair, hormone production and proper organ function.

Homeopathy
Based on the principle ‘Let Like be Cured with Like’,  homeopathy uses minute doses of a substance to stimulate the body’s vital force. This gentle yet powerful ancient healing art allows the body to balance and heal itself instead of fighting or suppressing symptoms. Prescribing a constitutional or ‘complete’ remedy can bring profound changes in acute or chronic ailments of a physical, mental or emotional nature. Physical, mental, and emotional thoughts and feelings are discussed including fears, dreams, and aggravating and ameliorating factors. Acute or ‘first-aid’ homeopathic prescriptions are also available. These are easy to use, and safe and effective for children, the elderly, pregnant or breast feeding women, and even animals. They are also safe to use with other medications or herbal preparations.

Bach Flower Remedies Consultation
During a Bach flower remedy consultation your emotional and physical state will be discussed, allowing the practitioner to design a remedy formulated specifically to meet your needs. Flower essences were used in ancient Egypt as well as India, Asia, Europe, South America and by the Australian Aborigines. This system was rediscovered and popularised 80 years ago in England by the work of Dr. Edward Bach. He suggested that physical illness is actually a message from our higher self, calling for a change in our mental outlook and way of living. Positive qualities that reside deep inside us are brought forth and emotional blocks are removed by the essences. Their activation allows us to replace fear with courage, insecurity with self-confidence and hatred with love, thus renewing your passion for life.

Bioresonance Energy Treatment
An excellent treatment to restore the body’s energy systems and reduce the effects of jet lag, it produces a gentle pulsating energy field, stimulating the body’s cells to activate various physiological processes. These gentle pulses are identical to the natural energy fields produced by the human body during exercise. Bioresonance harmonises the body’s energy and stimulates meridian pathways where energy levels seem depleted. Therapeutically, it boosts performance, increases metabolism for weight loss, improves circulation and regulates blood pressure. Bioresonance stimulates healing and reduces pain, and can also improve digestion, enhance detoxification, stimulate the immune system and increase wellbeing by promoting restful sleep and relaxation. For a deeper relaxation effect, light and sound therapy are combined with the use of LED spectacles and headphones. More than one treatment might be recommended depending on your goals.

Far Infrared Sauna
Far Infrared Therapy provides deeply penetrating heat while maintaining a comfortable air temperature of 42 - 45 degrees Celsius delivering many therapeutic benefits: stimulates circulation and boosts immunity, increases metabolism and the burning of calories, deep cleanses the skin, reduces cellulite, and promotes detoxification to purify the body. It may also reduce heavy metal accumulation in the body by promoting skin cell regeneration while unburdening the body of toxins. Various skin conditions may also be treated, and joint or muscular inflammation reduced. Enjoy deep muscle relaxation to banish tension and stress. Please arrive at Wellness Reception with sufficient time before this treatment to drink the necessary electrolytes for hydration purposes. The cold plunge pool should be avoided immediately after this treatment.

Colon Hydrotherapy
Colon Hydrotherapy is recommended during a detoxification program. The therapy aids in the removal of plaque and waste matter that may have accumulated over many years in the large colon, creating blockages and sluggishness in our digestive system. This therapy can improve ailments associated with a poorly functioning liver, including headaches, fatigue, irritability, skin conditions and many common allergies. The treatment is performed by a highly trained nurse. The water is heated to a comfortable body temperature and any noxious chemicals or contaminants are removed by the filtration system. A series of 3 - 5 treatments may be required for a full cleanse and a herbal implant may be prescribed for you during this treatment to maximise its health benefits. Chi Nei Tsang abdominal massage is recommended before each session for the best results.
Please see Wellness Reception for further information on Colon Hydrotherapy treatment including preparation and after care.

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is the contemporary version of China’s 3,000 year-old medical system originating in Taoist philosophy. This ancient healing tradition is based on the recognition that there is a natural energy that resonates with the rhythms and cycles of life to which we are all connected. It is a comprehensive theoretical system based on the knowledge that vibrant health on all levels is the direct manifestation of a life lived in harmony with the principles of nature. The cycles, rhythms, and principles of nature are thought to be fully expressed within the human body in the form of the Five Elements. Therapies and treatments used include well- established techniques such as acupuncture, herbal medicine, massage, nutrition, Qi Gong and forms of Chinese internal practices (breath, visualisation and movement) for cultivating Qi or vital energy and directing it towards the healing of self and others.

Initial Consultation
Your consultation begins with diagnosis, using TCM techniques such as pulse and tongue assessment to help determine the most appropriate treatment program. Our TCM Doctor will then prescribe a series of treatments to suit your condition utilising the appropriate Traditional Chinese Medicine modalities from the list below. This initial consultation session also includes treatment.

Acupuncture
An Oriental healing system based on ancient knowledge and Taoist understanding of energy principles and anatomy. In Chinese Medicine, energy is believed to flow along pathways called meridians, and it should flow in a free and unobstructed way, much like your bloodstream. If there is a blockage, then
disease may result. Acupuncture aims to restore the flow of vital energy in the body for healing and revitalisation. Minuscule, hair-thin sterile needles are used on specific points (acupuncture points) in order to re-establish the flow of energy and thereby correct imbalances, restore health, and bring about enhanced states of physical, emotional and mental wellbeing. Acupuncture  facilitates and supports the body’s innate ability to heal itself and preventively, to maintain optimal levels of wellness and vitality.

Moxibustion
Moxibustion involves the burning of Mugwort or ‘ai ye’. The heat is applied to specific points and areas of the body to invigorate the circulation of Qi. This ancient technique increases blood circulation and vital energy while promoting the healing of various disorders and enhancing immunity and overall health.

Cupping
An ancient healing technique using glass or bamboo cups to release blockages and improve circulation in specific areas of the body (neck, shoulders, upper and lower back, thighs). The cups are either stationary or can be used as a moving cup massage. This stimulates the movement of stagnant Qi and blood to the surface, allowing for the flow of new, healthy Qi and blood to the desired area. Cupping is recommended where there is body stiffness, muscular pain, or where increased circulation is desired.

Facial Acupuncture
In this session, the practitioner treats the imbalance of physiological conditions that may influence your appearance by using both body and facial acupuncture points. Also known as cosmetic acupuncture, facial acupuncture boasts a wide range of benefits, including a reduction in acne and fine lines, as well as an improvement in overall skin texture. A powerful anti-ageing treatment with minimal side effects; improves the long-term health of skin by increasing elasticity and firmness and reducing fine lines resulting in a smoother complexion and an improved overall texture. It can help minimise deep wrinkles, reduce the double chin and minimise sagging skin.

Chinese Herbal Medicine
With over 300 herbs listed in the Chinese Materia Medica, Chinese herbal medicine is the world’s largest organised system of herbal medicine. Chinese herbs can help restore balance of yin and yang by means of their stimulating, releasing, astringing, harmonising, tonifying, calming and detoxifying actions. A Chinese herbal remedy will consist of several herbs acting synergistically to treat the conditions presented. These remedies are gentler and more natural than conventional medicines. After an in-depth consultation, our TCM practitioners will formulate a customised blend of herbs to address your symptoms and root imbalances and help bring you back into harmony. The herbs are particularly effective with chronic problems as well as the more acute versions of the common cold and flu.

Functional Health Testing with PAAR
Our bespoke functional health assessments in partnership with PAAR London, allow you to experience a deeply personalised holistic wellness immersion and more meaningful healing journey during your stay with us. Before arriving to Kamalaya, you have an option to choose a screening to match your wellness program. Just select a testing kit that best suits your health goals and receive it at home up to nine weeks before departing for Thailand. Your results will be available on arrival at Kamalaya where our expert wellness consultants will further customise your wellness retreat specific to your individual needs.

High-Sensitivity Preventive Cancer Screening
Before cancer develops, there are some early warning signs such as cell proliferation and disordered apoptosis (cell death). When cell proliferation occurs, certain tumour markers accumulate in the cells such as Apo10 and TKTL1. This process is common to all solid tumours, which allows the High-Sensitivity Preventive Cancer Screening to cover multiple organs for tumours in a single test.
Blood samples are collected by one of our caring nurses. Results may take up to seven days, following which, Kamalaya’s in-house medical doctor reviews the results with you during an in-depth consultation. In addition to testing already-formed tumours, the screening can also detect if a person is in a high-risk or pre-cancerous state.
*This High-Sensitivity Preventive Cancer Screening only scans for solid tumours, other forms of cancer such as leukaemia (cancer of the blood) or myeloma (cancer of the bone) will not be detected. The test works with 97.5% accuracy.

Comprehensive Check-up Packages
Various comprehensive check-up packages are available through Kamalaya in cooperation with Bangkok Samui Hospital. For a complete list, please enquire at reception or consult with our team of nurses.

Blood & Urine Analysis
Blood and urine testing services are available through Kamalaya in cooperation with Bangkok Samui Hospital. For a complete list, please enquire at reception or consult with our team of nurses.

Functional Medicine Consultation
Appointments are available with our Functional Medicine Doctor for any health concerns or individual needs, including women’s health checks and general annual health checks.

Bio-Impedance Analysis
Bio-impedance analysis (BIA) is a method of measuring several key health markers, including hydration levels, the ratio of body fat against lean muscle mass and cellular vitality. It helps determine a realistic measure of your health and wellbeing, providing helpful information for setting goals for weight management and fitness and making appropriate recommendations to achieve a better body balance to improve overall health and prevent illness. A full body Bio-Impedance Analysis gives valuable information on cellular health, metabolism and toxicity to help create naturopathic, nutrition or exercise programs suited to your individual needs.

3D Full Body Scan
A comprehensive fitness and alignment scan measuring various metrics including Body Composition, Circumference Measurement, Postural Balance, Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) represented in an avatar to easily track your progress. An essential tool for fitness, weight rebalancing and structural alignment. A digital report will be analysed by your Physiotherapist or Fitness expert who will make the best recommendations on how to target your wellness goals. A follow-up scan can be booked to track your progress.

IV Infusion Therapy
In support of your journey to lifelong wellness, an extensive selection of IV therapies is available to enhance health, performance and longevity. Whatever your concern, our potent infusions provide powerful benefits from boosting brainpower, metabolism, energy levels and immunity to reversing the signs of ageing.

Ozone Therapy
Enhance the progress of your recovery from infections and viruses, heart conditions, wound healing from surgery and injury, or get support for autoimmune diseases, respiratory issues and digestive problems with powerful Ozone Therapy treatments. Boost your immunity, aid healthy ageing and improve overall wellbeing and vital energy.

Ozone therapy is done through autohemotherapy by drawing from your blood, mixing it with medical-grade oxygen that is exposed to UV light creating O3 bonds and reinjecting it into your bloodstream. The treatment is completely safe and painless and is supervised by our in-house medical team, while highly trained medical nurses administer an activated form of oxygen. The nurse will be present throughout the treatment to ensure guests are comfortable. One session may last 60-90 minutes depending on your overall health and physical condition.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT)
With hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) blood plasma can carry many times more oxygen to the tissue than is possible under normal atmospheric pressure which stimulates the regeneration of cells. Apart from providing exceedingly good results for age-related conditions, this invigorating treatment offers solutions for a wide variety of cases. Used to help improve the quality of life for patients with cancer and brain dysfunction, those with chronic fatigue syndrome, as well as those suffering from sports injuries, HBOT is ideal for anyone who is serious about their overall wellbeing.

Before a guest undergoes hyperbaric oxygen therapy, Kamalaya’s medical team will examine the guest’s physical condition to ensure safety and prevent any possible complications. On c e approved, the guest will be assisted into the hyperbaric chamber. Inside the chamber the guest will lie wearing an oxygen mask, while 93 - 97% pure oxygen is released and the atmospheric pressure is increased to greater than normal. Inside the chamber, the guests can adjust their posture and position so that they are comfortable and relaxed throughout the treatment.

The therapy session lasts between 60 - 90 minutes and the number of recommended HBOT sessions depends on the purpose of the treatment and how well the patient responds to the therapy. When the session is complete, the chamber is slowly depressurised to normal atmospheric pressure before the guest can exit the chamber. This treatment is not suitable for those with claustrophobia.

Physiotherapy session
Physiotherapy helps to address reduced freedom of movement and function caused by postural imbalances, natural ageing and trauma. Our expert Physiotherapist will first evaluate your condition, taking into consideration alignment, posture, gait and any obvious restrictions of movement. As well as helping to relieve pain, physiotherapy treatment also incorporates practical exercises to improve your range of motion, correct muscular imbalances, rehabilitate injuries and guide you on the path to recovery. The first session includes an initial assessment and treatment. Follow up sessions can be booked for 60 minutes or 90 minutes.

Myofascial Release Therapy
Myofascial Release Therapy focuses on releasing muscular shortness and tightness by using therapeutic massage and pressure point techniques on the thin layer of connective tissue or ‘fascia’ located beneath the skin. The role of fascia within the body is to attach, stabilise, cover and separate our muscles and other internal organs. Inflammation, trauma, surgical procedures and structural imbalances can create restrictions in this connective tissue leading to pain and reduced motion. Myofascial Release Therapy is an effective treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome and can also be used to address ongoing back, shoulder and hip pain as well as other affected areas that contain soft tissue.

Targeted Radiofrequency Therapy (TR-THERAPY)
By utilising targeted electromagnetic wave frequencies, the healing process of acute and chronic sport injuries and musculoskeletal disorders is accelerated. An excellent aid when treating local muscle spasm, trigger points, fibromyalgia, tendinitis, cervical pain and post-traumatic edema. TR-Therapy will be combined with massage, passive motion, muscle activation or other physiotherapy manual techniques. The therapeutic effect is noticed instantly, and the benefits are experienced long after the session.

Revival Exercise
Our Physiotherapist will begin with a detailed analysis of your posture, muscles and gait to identify any imbalances. They will then create a customized program of Revival Exercises designed to strengthen the body and stabilise the joints. These Revival Exercises may incorporate Pilates exercises, stretching and other techniques to enhance core stability, improve muscular posture and correct structural imbalances.

Abdominal Organ Therapy
Abdominal Organ Therapy is a manual therapy consisting of gentle, specifically placed manual forces that encourage normal mobility, tone and tissue motion of the internal organs, their connective tissue and other areas of the body. Motion is a sign of life itself. Everything in the universe is in motion. Everything moves in space and time and humans are no exception to this rule. Our bodies need movement to be healthy. This same principle applies to every structure in our bodies including the internal organs. Tissues lose their normal motion when they become inflamed. It can be conceptualised as a localised drying out of the affected tissues. Many factors can cause tissue inflammation including: infections, direct trauma, repetitious movement, diet, environmental toxins and emotional stress. The natural healing process involves local disruption of these relatively inelastic, granular tissues and their restoration to normal tissue fibres with the reability for appropriate motion.

Discovering the power of the mind can help you to create beneficial life changes in many areas. Whether you are embarking on a program as part of a new beginning, or simply taking some time out to recharge and re-energise, taking care of the mind, emotions and thought processes is a vital part of an integrative approach to a more balanced lifestyle. Mental and emotional healing can play a big part in supporting changes in your life, including physical changes. Our therapists can help to guide you and will provide stress management strategies and healing modalities to suit your individual needs.

Stress Management
Ultimately caused by imbalance, stress is the body’s attempt to regain balance. Ongoing stress causes a prolonged physiological response that results in every system within the body being affected, sometimes without you being aware; circulatory, respiratory, nervous, digestive, immune and hormonal systems are all at risk. Poorly managed stress can have serious consequences and may manifest physically, mentally and emotionally. After assessing your lifestyle and key  stressors, your goals will be discussed, followed by the recommendation of practical tools and techniques to better manage the effects of stress in your life. These strategies may help you to feel more in control of situations, feel calm, think clearly and cope better in times of stress. With daily practice, you may be able to manage potential stressful situations in a proactive as well as reactive manner.

Mind-Body Balance
“Balance is the key to a healthy life”. The Mind-Body Balance sessions are aimed at bringing this balance in our emotional and mental realms which in turn affects the physical realm. Your practitioner may assess you for signs and symptoms of mood/emotional imbalances, anger, anxiety and excessive worrying which may manifest as physical exhaustion, weight gain, eating disorders and insomnia. Through a process of counseling, yoga nidra, pranayama and meditative practices your personal mentor will help you find this inner balance.

Personal Mentoring
Personal mentoring sessions create a holistic healing experience that affects the physical body and brings balance to the emotional and spiritual realms. These sessions focus on helping you become free of conflicting and repetitive responses, rediscover your core strengths and values, establish greater love and connection in relationships, heal past emotions and discover a wonderful new way to get the best from life. Your Personal Mentor will take you through a process of healing using profound insights, powerful practices and ancient techniques of divine energy transfer.

Meditation
Meditation restores a state of balance and peace and leads us to greater levels of physical, mental, emotional and spiritual wellbeing. Learn tailor-made meditation techniques to suit your particular needs, goals and level of experience. With regular practice you will experience profound shifts and enhanced feelings of peace and happiness.

Pranayama
Pranayama is a system of yogic breathing techniques designed to maximise the flow of prana (vital life force). A private session will guide you in various techniques to control and regulate the breath, helping to calm the mind, balance emotions and reduce stress and anxiety. Your session will be tailored to your specific needs and level of experience.

Shirodhara
La thérapie Shirodhara travaille jusqu'aux niveaux les plus profonds de l'être. Le mot "Shiro" se traduit en sanskrit par "tête" et "dhara" par "flux". Un flux d'huile chaude et médicamenteuse est versé en continu sur le front, ce qui permet de connecter et de dynamiser les "nadis", les différents canaux qui soutiennent notre vie - de la circulation des fluides au niveau physique aux courants subtils qui parcourent les méridiens, les chakras et les auras. Grâce à des compétences techniques et à l'intuition, ce traitement spécialisé permet d'améliorer l'approvisionnement en sang, augmentant ainsi le flux de nutriments et d'oxygène, soulageant les tensions et favorisant une voie claire pour les impulsions nerveuses afin d'équilibrer le système nerveux et de restaurer la vitalité. Le shirodhara est recommandé pour la congestion des sinus, l'insomnie et la clarté d'esprit. Il est fortement recommandé d'éviter le soleil pendant plusieurs heures après le traitement.

Kati Vasti
Kati désigne le bas du dos en sanskrit. Ce traitement se concentre spécifiquement sur le traitement des malaises liés au dos, tels qu'une tension chronique, un prolapsus discal ou une sciatique. Kati Vasti est également bénéfique pour l'hypertension, les troubles cardiaques et la fertilité. Les déséquilibres psychologiques liés à la peur, aux chocs et au sentiment de manque de soutien dans la vie sont en corrélation avec cette zone du corps dans la médecine traditionnelle chinoise. Une pâte médicinale est appliquée en anneau autour de la zone affectée, et de l'huile ayurvédique chaude est versée en son centre. L'huile est maintenue dans l'anneau pendant 30 minutes. Cette application est suivie d'un massage du dos et d'un bain de vapeur avec des serviettes chaudes pour une expérience profondément nourrissante et soutenante. Il est fortement recommandé à

Ce massage complet du corps est effectué avec le client allongé sur le sol. De l'huile chauffée est appliquée et massée dans les muscles par les mains et les pieds du thérapeute.

Ce traitement relaxant favorise le relâchement des tensions, améliore la souplesse des muscles, soulage les douleurs dorsales et améliore la circulation. Le pathaganjaly permet une forte application de la pression. Il est particulièrement recommandé aux personnes dont les muscles sont bien développés ou tendus ou à toute personne qui préfère un massage à forte pression.

Kamalaya Signature Treatment: Three Treasures
According to ancient Taoist theory, the body has three main energy centres - the ‘Three Dantian’ – where our life force or vital energy ‘Qi’ is gathered, stored and distributed throughout the entire body. Each Dantian is associated with particular physical, emotional and psychological functions and each is brimming with a specific type of energy. Collectively, the Dantian are referred to as the ‘Three Treasures’. This treatment combines healing methods selected for their ability to activate, harmonise and balance the ‘Three Treasures’ in order to restore the flow of vital energy for healing and revitalisation. These include techniques from Tui Na massage, Reiki and crystal healing as well as aromatherapy using Kamalaya’s bespoke ‘Three Treasures’ oil blends created specifically for this treatment. As well as supporting the individual function of each energy centre, it promotes an enhanced balance and harmony of the mind, body, emotions and spirit and creates an overall feeling of peace and integral alignment.

Chi Nei Tsang (Taoist Abdominal Massage)
Chi Nei Tsang is excellent for a diversity of health imbalances from digestive problems to nervous tension and stress. It promotes circulation and therefore health of the internal organs, while also balancing the nervous system to release stress and facilitate healing. Based on the Taoist theory that refers to the
‘gut’ as a ‘second brain’, this treatment releases stored emotional and psychological tension and stress thereby promoting healing on an emotional level. A series of treatments is most beneficial. Chi Nei Tsang is especially recommended for all detoxification, stress release and weight balancing programs.

Lymphatic Drainage Therapy
This is a detoxifying treatment, using gentle rhythmic strokes and soft pumping movements to encourage the movement of lymphatic fluid without the firm pressure techniques of a regular massage. The lymphatic system acts as a transportation network for the immune system and also as a filter for harmful toxins. By encouraging the movement of lymph fluid to localised lymph nodes your body is supported in efficiently eliminating waste products. Lymphatic drainage may be particularly beneficial in addressing water retention, detoxification and weight loss. This gentle and soothing treatment is also recommended to calm the nervous system and restore sleep. For maximum benefits, two or more treatments are recommended.

Reiki
Reiki, a Japanese word meaning ‘Universal Life Energy’ is a therapy in which the Reiki healer is a channel or conduit for the energy. Reiki is an extremely effective technique for stress release and total relaxation. A sense of peace, vitality, and joy combined with the extremely pleasant feeling of security are common experiences. Reiki accelerates the body’s natural healing power and opens the mind, body and spirit in order to restore balance on an emotional and mental level. It is a nurturing energy that harmonises the mind, body and soul.

Indian Head Massage
Based on the ancient healing system of Ayurveda, this massage treatment is received in a seated position to relieve tension and blockages from your shoulders, neck, back and scalp. Using deep thumb and finger pressure, you will experience improved circulation to the head, the release of emotional and physical tension, and an enhanced state of relaxation and mental clarity.

Traditional Asian Hand Massage
Inspired by Korean hand acupuncture, this highly effective treatment opens the energy channels of your chest, lungs, and heart center thereby facilitating the release of accumulated emotional stress and old emotional patterns (particularly those associated with sadness and grief). Profoundly effective for opening your heart centre and facilitating the flow of joy, love, and bliss, this treatment has a deeply balancing effect on your psyche. It also soothes the nerves in the arms and hands and helps reduce tension associated with desk work.

Traditional Asian Foot Massage with Herbal Foot Soak
Kamalaya’s Asian Foot Massage with Herbal Soak is a nourishing treatment which begins with a warm foot soak infused with locally sourced fresh and dried herbs renowned for their therapeutic properties. These herbs help to reduce muscle tension & stress, induce better sleep, inhibit arthritis, reduce inflammation and improve overall blood circulation. To ensure optimum benefits, the water temperature in the foot bath is set as close to 43 degrees as is comfortable. This allows the warmth to gradually penetrate and move up the legs and deeper into the body, bringing with it a welcome sense of calm and rejuvenation. A traditional Asian Hand Massage is then performed to open the energy channels of the chest and related organs, as well as opening the lungs for deeper breathing and the release of accumulated stress and emotions. Following this, a Traditional Asian Foot Massage works on specific pressure points to systematically activate nerve reflexes, thereby stimulating all of the body’s organs
and tissues to improve overall function and wellbeing.

Traditional Asian Foot Massage
Ancient Chinese theory of approximately 5000 years ago observed that feet are miniature maps of your entire body, with specific points on the feet corresponding to all major body parts and organs. This treatment uses specific pressure points to systematically activate the nerve reflexes, thereby stimulating all body organs and tissues to improve overall function and wellbeing. Effective for calming the mind, relieving headaches and inducing deep and restful sleep.

Traditional Thai Massage
Thai massage is based on the discovery of ten invisible energy lines called Sen, which run along the body. Your journey begins with a masterful combination of Thai stretching techniques and deep tissue pressure point massage. This stimulates the blood flow, releases toxins, and allows the body to naturally heal itself and restore suppleness. Daily Thai Massage can help accelerate the pace of the detoxification process and reduce any discomfort.

Traditional Thai Herbal Compress Massage
The use of herbal heated compresses is a traditional Thai therapy which dates back to ancient times, when it was the secret healing technique of Buddhist monks and local herbal healers. Thai Herbal Compress involves special poultices made of herbs and spices that are wrapped in muslin and steam heated. Steam heating allows the release of natural essential oils and aromas from the herbs and spices to help promote deep relaxation, reduced stress and fatigue, increased physical wellbeing, enhanced alignment and postural integrity of the body, improved circulation of blood and lymph and the stimulation of the internal organs.

Traditional Thai Therapeutic Treatment
Traditional Thai Therapeutic Treatment is also known as ‘medical massage’ and is based on the Royal Thai style, ‘Rajasamnak’ which was historically only used to treat the Thai aristocracy and the Royal Family. Furthermore, the theory behind Traditional Thai Therapeutic Treatment is also based on the medical inscriptions and illustrations displayed at Wat Pho temple in Bangkok. This temple is renowned for its prestigious massage school which utilises ancient pressure point techniques. These therapeutic points and energy pathways known as Sen, are based on the principle of energy flow where applying massage techniques at precise anatomical locations produces specific therapeutic effects.

Vital Essence Oil Massage
Kamalaya’s unique Vital Essence Oil Massage combines Asian knowledge of energy principles with the science of aromatherapy to create the perfect synergy between East and West. This magical and harmonising experience is a simple and effective way to let go of tensions, improve your health, balance your emotions and enhance your life. One of our Five Element essential oils will be selected to suit your body’s constitution: Water, Wood (Air), Fire, Earth, and Metal (Ether).

Upper Body Tension Relief
This deep tissue massage focuses on releasing tension and discomfort in the areas most commonly affected by lifestyle and stress. Modern lifestyles which include long hours sitting at a computer and frequent travel on planes and cars promote poor posture and limited or repetitive movement. This leads to an imbalance in our natural flow of movement causing restricted blood flow, blocked energy circulation and even shallow breathing which often manifests as tension, fatigue and pain. Overworked areas such as back, neck and shoulder muscles tend to contract causing tightness and pain. By working deep into the layers of muscles and connective tissue with slow but very firm strokes, this massage effectively relieves tension and contractions in those areas and guides the body back to its natural state of balance. This treatment may also help to relieve headaches and stress.

Lower Body Tension relief
With a specific focus on addressing the lower back and legs which are much affected by modern sedentary lifestyles, this treatment provides an intensive release of tension and stress using a variety of therapeutic and remedial techniques. This massage treatment improves blood circulation, alleviates
anxiety and brings about a state of deep relief and relaxation. Potent active ingredients that penetrate into the tissue and strengthen muscles and joints are used together with techniques that will dissolve any tension in the body.
