As promised this is my spa experience in Pangkor laut resort. For a great many people, the chance to relax and unwind and be pampered is one of the best ways to spend a holiday. Whilst some may like to spend their hard-earned holiday lying on a beach or walking around museums, and castles or shopping Mumsie likes to spend more time to de-stress and revitalise !! Spas have been used throughout history as a way of healing the body, inside and out, and today their use has altered slightly to offer a more luxurious pampering experience than simply a place to be healed. There are fantastic spas all over the world. Ancient mystic therapies are being rediscovered and brought up to date, all with the aim of making your spa the best it can be! And mumsie must admit that her spa experience at the Spa Village Pangkor Laut Resort is one of the best (paid only $250 Malaysian ringgit -a discounted price I was told) This place is really a village with a number of specially built structures designed to facilitate an extensive range of treatments from China, Japan, India, Thailand, Bali and Malaysia. Mumsies treatment began with some unique Bath House Ritual representing various bathing traditions from around Asia..First off to a soothing footbath and a Chinese Foot pounding session (took some video here) Mumsies face too was treated with some steam of various herbs..see pic ..gotta put her face over some steam of various type of herbs Then was escorted into a Malay circulating Bath pool..(cold water..see pic) then into the warm Japanese pool. Next to a Japanese style cleansing from head to foot with a goshi-goshi cloth (this reminds mumsie of the Japanese onsen that she had during her many visits to Japan) after which mumsie was led into a heated pool and whilst you soak in this hot pool one was offered some ice cold tea..so Mumsie closed her eyes and sipped her tea whilst soaking in this hot water...Next mumsie was given a gentle exfoliating wash with their signature Shanghai Scrub After this scrub mumsie was given a cup of calming tea before her 50 minute spa treatment of her choice and mumsie chose Balines..which really gave mumsies body an energising experience!! Oooo if mumsie got the time she will visit this place again and again but the itinerary was really packed..
