Body wraps use detoxifying organic materials to draw toxins from the body and soften skin.<br />

Body wraps are designed to improve the texture and appearance of the skin <strong>by</strong> helping to rid the<br />

body of excess fluids and toxins. Benefits of body wraps may include detoxification, boosting of<br />

the lymphatic system and metabolism, body contouring, temporary inch-loss, skin tightening,<br />

and skin softening.<br />

After a scrub, skin will feel soft and fine lines will lessen after just one treatment. Since the skin is<br />

our largest organ, detoxification can have a profound effect on health and well being.<br />

Recommended Duration : 90 MINUTES<br />

Cost : (90 MINUTES) Rs 3000 ( 120 MINUTES) Rs 3600<br />

LOMILOMI MASSAGE<br />

The early Polynesian settlers to Hawaii brought their own form of <strong>massage</strong> which evolved over<br />

hundreds of ears to become something uniquely Hawaiian. The word „Lomilomi’ is used today<br />

to describe a "<strong>massage</strong> therapist" or "Hawaiian <strong>massage</strong>." In the Hawaiian language, the word used<br />

traditionally, called lomi, means "to knead, rub or soothe; to work in and out, as the paws of a<br />

contented cat." ]<br />

TECHNIQUE<br />

In general, Lomilomi practitioners use the palms, forearms, fingers, knuckles, elbows, knees,<br />

feet and even sticks and stones, with or without lubrication. It is a spiritual technique based on the<br />

Hawaiian philosophy of “huna” that relates to philosophy, knowledge, anatomy and practices such as<br />

<strong>massage</strong> and energy flow. The strokes can be long, smooth and relaxing, or quick and invigorating.<br />

The key is that the masseuse and the client are working in tandem. The goal of the <strong>massage</strong> is to<br />

find harmony with every aspect of life and therefore, therapists may ask clients to pray, meditate,<br />

change their diets, and engage in other self-help activities usually believed to lie outside the scope<br />

of <strong>massage</strong> in an effort to truly help the clients obtain optimal health.<br />
