beer therapy

Ever considered bathing in beer instead of drinking it? Probably not, but at the new Sense of Touch, in Hong Kong’s Lan Kwai Fong, you can do just this. Open late in to the night making it ideal for a post party wind down, ask for the Beer Treatment to relax tired muscles and an aching spirit. The treatment includes a soak in the tub of ale followed by a barley scrub and 60-minute deep tissue massage. A great way to spend time with your drinking buddies without feeling the nasty after affets the next morning.

Lamongrass House

Some years ago while on holiday in Thailand, Bobby Duchowny visited an organic farm in Petchaboon province and became interested in the natural healing properties of Thai herbs and spices.

“Bobby Duchowny studied aromatherapy – a healing art that promotes massage, when combined with specific herb and spice oils, as a method to reduce stress, boost energy and heal certain physical ailments – at the American Aromatherapy Association.

“Some years ago while on holiday in Thailand, he visited an organic farm in Petchaboon province and became interested in the natural healing properties of Thai herbs and spices.

“I was particularly attracted to lemon grass as it was used in many popular Thai foods, as a medicine for stomach disorders and even as a repellent for mosquitoes,” he recalls.

Bobby used lemon grass as his signature herb to create a line of essential oils, face and body creams, shower gels and bath crystals, which he and his wife Palita sold at Bangkok’s world-famous Weekend Market.
“Our advantage is that we produce the freshest spa products and our stock is never kept longer than three months; using fresh spa products is like eating fresh food rather than processed food.”

“Based on his years experiences at some of the top spas in Southeast Asia, Bobby has developed a full line of healthy skin care products. For example, his hydrating face and body creams have 25 per cent aloe vera, white orchid and cucumber extracts. And he’s developed a revitalizing mineral muscle soak made from Andaman sea salt crystals, blended with white orchid and chamomile extracts, to help draw out impurities and soothe and revive tense muscles.

“People are sensitive to different scents at different times of day. It’s a good idea to get a variety of essential oils and experiment with what smells and feels good,” he says. “Our aromatherapy massage and body oils can be either uplifting or calming to the spirit. They’re carefully balanced hand blended oils created by adding fragrant pure essential oils to nourishing, vitamin E enriched, sweet almond and jojoba base oils.

“Other therapies include a Thai tanaka and seaweed face mask used for centuries in Asia as a rejuvenator for skin damaged by the sun. But the Lemongrass House foundation is built on the fragrant, highly concentrated essential oils that are volatile extracts of flowers, leaves, spices, fruits, woods and roots, each with its own benefits to the body and mind.

“Lemongrass House on Phuket is located across from Surin Beach. Here Bobby and Palita offer their full range of spa products at modest prices, making perfect gifts for friends and family who can enjoy the aromatic scents of Asia in the privacy of their homes – no matter where in the world they live.

Sound Therapy

Spa Trend Update (July, 2008)

A growing number of spas are furthering their holistic approach to enhancing well-being by including Sound Therapies based on ancient traditions. A variety of instruments and techniques are used to practice Sound Therapy.  A few amongst them are: Tuning forks, Tibetan Singing Bowls, Crystal bowls and Gongs. 

Different therapists use these equipments in different ways. The vibrations produced by these instruments are believed to clear blocked energy, bring relaxation, and alleviate pain.  Sound therapy is also used in combination with  conventional spa treatments to increase their benefit.   

In addition to being a current trend in spas, Sound Therapy is also known for its healing effect on children.  It helps improve their concentration and reduces restlessness and aggression.  As various spas have geared up to become family destinations,  sound therapy is gaining in popularity with this young market as well.

Traditions of Balance

Traditional Thai medicine regards good health as the result of a harmonious balance of elements and energy. Nature- our own body is the best healer and we aims to strengthen that inner balance so that healing takes place naturally and effectively.

 

Activities, lifestyles, emotions, certain kinds of food and weather conditions can disturb the balance of elements and energy. Heat, herbs, bath and traditional massages are the holistic remedies that instill a sense of mental and physical harmony. When energy flows and elements are in balance health is maintained, youthfulness is preserved, self- healing is promoted and well-being is restored
