For first-time spa visitors, Balinese massage is ideal. Its gentle, flowing technique with aromatherapy creates relaxation without intensity. Our therapists ensure complete comfort and adjust to your preferences throughout.
Light pressure suits those who prefer gentler touch or have sensitivity. Medium pressure works for most people seeking relaxation. Firm pressure targets deep tension and muscle knots. Always communicate during your massage—adjustments can be made anytime.
It’s entirely your choice. Some guests prefer conversation; others prefer silence. Your therapist follows your lead. If you have feedback about pressure or comfort, always speak up.
For maintenance, monthly massages help manage stress and prevent tension buildup. Weekly or biweekly sessions provide greater benefits for chronic conditions. Even occasional visits offer significant stress relief.
Your comfort is paramount. You undress only to your comfort level—some guests remain partially clothed. Professional draping ensures modesty throughout. Thai and Shiatsu massage are performed fully clothed.
Thai massage involves stretching and is performed clothed on a mat—choose this for flexibility and energy work. Balinese uses oils and flowing strokes on a table—choose this for pure relaxation and aromatherapy.
Discover the transformative power of professional spa massage at Lebanon’s top-rated spa. Whether you’re seeking stress relief, muscle tension release, or pure relaxation, Kimantra Spa delivers world-class treatments in serene settings.
