After long strolling, running, jumping and playing at the beaches,
our tired bodies asking for some rest.

Clean and very spacious Couple treatment room.

The masseur was very experience and attentive. First, she stretched to relax my body, she also pointed that my shoulder very 'hard' that I must be very tired. Then she asked whether her strength was alright. I told her that I usually go for deep tissue massage. Understood my request, she applied the real firm pressures to relax my stiff joints.

Actually, my worse than old granny's body required me to go for massage frequently. Usually once a month if there's no sudden stiffed 'robot' neck attack. I always bring medicated patches and muscle relaxant pills when traveling. Of course, not to miss good massage to treat and pamper myself whenever I'm in Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand. 

As massage junkie, I did have bad experiences with horrendous therapists. They're either not skillful or purposely make you painful by applying pressures on to your bones, hands and arms. Some will pour excessive oil to make it super slippery so they don't need to use so much energy by just rubbing. Gosh! treatment? Heol~! Seriously...  it's more like torturing me. I better go home and sit on my message chair!

Therefore, I do appreciate those masseur that really know the techniques to loosen my tension muscles, and not creating bruises and unnecessary pain to my body and bones!

Highly recommend this 60 min Sasak Massage~! Truly Shiok!!!

She's one of those few masseurs that allowed me to have total rest knowing that I'm in good hands. Indulged myself with here solid kneading, palms and thumbs deep acupressure which concentrating on the tension  points.  Her skillful hands worked like magic to soothe tired and aching muscles.

Light smell of sunflower massage oil, nice atmosphere and soft spa music complemented with healing massage soon led me to full relaxation inside this cozy room. My body and mind were rejuvenated and feeling great after the session. I tried to press my own shoulder and totally impressed as it felt less blocked, softer and I can have full movements without the sore feeling.

There's no mandatory gratuity, but we're happy to give tips as we're satisfied by their wonderful skills and good services. Really grateful for this blissful and effective treatment.

Did I mention that 60 minutes Sasak Massage only cost Rp 345.000? Ok, I'll ring them now to book appointment for Dwi Engges (two masseurs) massage. Wait... I should try this 120 min Exotic Coconut Body Scrub treatment which include Footspa, Sasak Massage, Coconut Scrub, Flower bath and lotion to moisturize skin. I think it's more suitable for me now... You know, I look so dark after 5 days in Lombok. Hopefully after the scrub, my skin will be a bit fairer like white coconut. Upps... wait... I'm in Singapore now! ㅠㅠ
