What is Warm Bamboo Massage?
Warm Bamboo Massge is a new wave therapy which is extremely relaxing.
Bamboo is seen to symbolize strength, prosperity and peace. After having this treatment I felt 'at peace'.
Warm Bamboo Massage combines the benefits of thermalism or hermotherapy with heat strokes, using bamboo to create a deep, relaxing and healing treatment.
Using the warmth of the bamboo to warm the skin allows the skin to absorb moisturising and therapeutic oils, while at the same time preparing the musculature of the body so the therapist can work into the deeper muscle layers. Oh yes ... even deeper!
Benefits of thermotherapy
- Increased blood circulation
- Improved blood flow to surrounding tissues
- Greater ability to transport toxins and waste products from the area
- Warm bamboo provides a fantastic tool, creating a sense of depth to the massage
