Historical evidence shows that the Chong tribe from eastern Thailand employed a remedy focused on the “massage line,” rarely practiced today but resurrected here at Sense, A Rosewood Spa. Our therapists apply the basic principle of massaging a line o f tension in the body to release stress and blockages. This ancient treatment incorporates Plai Essential Oil Blend made with Thai herbs and a traditional herbal compress to relieve muscle pain. Chong Massage improves energy, relaxes the body and maximizes overall energy pathways.

The Ayutthaya period in Thai history was influenced by other cultures, for example by the Persian merchants who came here to trade. The Persians often applied an extraction from the Tian Dam flower to help release tension and encourage blood circulation after a hard day’s work, and it is incorporated here in this treatment. This massage starts by stretching technique along with hot stone massage over the body. Then, Tian Dam is applied to soak into the skin in order to heal and release joint and muscle paIN as well as stimulate blood circulation. This treatment benefits everyone, but especially those suffering from joint pain, as well as those affected by menopause as it is perfect for encouraging hormone balance.
