Balinese Boreh is a healing treatment traditionally administered in Balinese villages by rice farmers after a long day of hard work. Muscles are soothed with a traditional Balinese massage and the whole body is wrapped with a selection of warming spices to relieve muscle aches, increase blood circulation and create relaxation. Boreh accomplishes total relaxation and muscle relief by using heat therapy combined with exotic spices. A traditional scrub that uses ancient herbs is also used to exfoliate the skin for a silky smooth finish.

Made from Balinese spices such as cloves, ginger, cinnamon, coriander seeds, rice, turmeric, and nutmeg, among others. These spices have natural antiseptic properties and protect your skin from germ and fungal infections, while also improving your blood flow and providing relaxing aromatherapy. All of the ingredients are ground in a mortar and pestle and combined with water to create a thick consistency.

• increase blood circulation and exfoliate the skin
• release tension and loosen stiff joints
• keep skin smooth, soft and deeply moisturized
• deeply relaxing

The spa treatment begins with a ginger and eucalyptus detox oil. Knots in the muscle are untangled and the lymphatic system is drained with massage and a fragrant mixture of cloves, cinnamon, coriander seeds, turmeric and nutmeg are applied to the skin as a body wrap.

A traditional head massage is given while the spices work to warm and detoxify skin. After the spices have done their bit, skin is nourished, cleansed and moisture is gently sealed in with a milk bath. The Balinese Boreh treatment uses a selection of traditional pressure massage techniques which help release tension and loosen stiff joints while the body wrap of exotic spices works to increase blood circulation and exfoliate the skin.

Once your bones are warmed and the blood is flowing, the creamy milk bath helps keep skin smooth, soft and deeply moisturized.
