Bali massage is an ancient style of healing that has been handed down through the generations by the Balinese to release of tense muscles, leading to relief of stress, improvement of circulation and promotion of harmony on all levels. It is an oil-based, table massage predominantly using a style of deep tissue massage, combined with long kneading strokes, acupressure, stretching, and energy awareness. Spa versions of this massage may be more gentle and more focused on relaxation.
