Herbal Compress Massage
An herbal compress contains a variety of herbs and spices with potential therapeutic properties (e.g., lemongrass, kaffir lime leaves, tamarind turmeric, etc.). During the herbal compress massage, practitioners gently massage the client’s body with hot muslin compresses which are heated with steam. It is believed that the therapeutic properties of the herbs are absorbed through the skin and create detoxifying effects.
