Comfort Zone, Taman Desa
This place has branched out from Yoga Zone to their own premises, around the corner. Masseuse Darma is no longer with them, she gave me a really good rubdown on my previous visit.
Had a Balinese massage with Aromatheraphy oil, under promo for first-time visit @ RM48/hr. Sounds good! No foot wash though :( Got ready and soon was at the mercy of Rosmini whom started off soothing my tired calf muscles.
"You've scratches all over!" - Yeah, told her I went hiking and the undergrowth was taller than I was, and got lotsa leech bites under my right knee which swelled up a bit. No worries, will all be gone before you know it. :P
Rosmini worked her way up to my back, and kneeded me with her hands and said I had lotsa 'wind' (equivalent of 'knots') in my back. She excuse herself and returned with 'a wooden tool' I reckon, and proceeded to even me out. Felt like she was raking my back and it was rather painful though I tried not to think about it.
At work today, June checked my back and said I had red marks from the 'abuse'. Feels a bit sore like a bruise if I press the particular area. Oh well, no pain no gain? I did feel a difference when she worked on my back again at the end of the massage.
The other times when she used her hands, it felt pretty good. I'd go back again, but will remember to mention 'No Tools Allowed'.
Thought of a day of self-indulgence at Sembunyi Spa some time too.. wanna join me? ;)
