Balinese spa day

Well my yoga studio was closed on both Sunday and Monday for staff outing.  I decided to make the most of this bad situation and get a lot of sunshine and lots of pampering!!  The spas here are incredibly cheap I must say.  You can get a lot for a little basically.  On Sunday I had my first experience of a true Balinese massage.  The massage was really good too and these women know what they are doing.  It's a full both massage with oil.  The massage cost itself is about $4-5 and with tip you can easily spend still under $10!  For an hour!  I had my massage after lunch at this great raw food cafe.  I told the woman that I would be back tomorrow and sure enough same time same place on Monday.  However on Monday I splurged and decided to not only get this 1 hour fab massage, I also got a facial, and a hair cream bath which is basically a facial for your hair.  3 hours of pampering and before I knew it my bus back to my hotel was leaving.  All of this cost about $28 and that was with the tip.  I can't believe it.  Not only is the service affordable but it's also very clean at this salon, the women are friendly, and it's good quality!

Before I leave I'm sure to get many more massages, another facial, mani and pedi and some waxing.  

So far bali is treating me very well, outside of bali belly!  I love it here!!

  2. Visiting a spa to get a massage is really helpful in releasing your stress and fatigue. It is also considered as an escape from stressful and tiring days. I'm glad that you had a great Balinese massage experience with a great therapist. Thanks for sharing that, Amanda! I hope you can experience more days like that! All the best!
