The herbal heat compress contains numerous healing herbs that complement
the massage. The treatment begins with a deep-pressure Thai massage,
then a unique poultice of steamed fresh local herbal ingredients is
applied to help sooth and relax muscle tension and other aches and
pains. Aromatic camphor in the compress eases respiration. Traditional
Thai medicine uses herbal heat compression for the treatment of sprains,
muscle pain, bruises and swelling. The combination of herbs we use in
this massage has been developed over the years and is a secret blend
passed down from generation to generation.

Traditional Thai medicine also uses herbal heat compresses in postnatal
care treatment to help reduce swelling, drain wastes from the body, help
soothe sore muscles and promote general health, while a mother is
recovering from pregnancy.
