They provide you many choices including Swedish massages, Traditional Thai massages, Hot Stone massages, Vietnamese herbal relaxing massages, facial/body skincare and other beauty services. Our recommended package? The 75-minute long Hot stone therapy is ideal when you need a total relaxation.

And just a small note, you should make a reservation if you’re going with a group of more than 2 people.

This treatment is believed to relieve stress, lower back pain, digestive discomfort, headaches and so much more such as helping with fertility and reproductive issues.
