Iyara Day Spa
If you’ve been following us for a while, you already know Iyara Day Spa is a staple in our self-care routine. You mightโve even seen our reel raving about it! This time, we took our relaxation game up a notch with a group mani-pedi session โ the perfect way to catch up and feel pampered together. But the real highlight was the Thai Herbal Compress Massage (60 mins: HKD$780 / 90 mins: HKD$1100), a treatment that merges the best of Thai, Swedish, and deep tissue techniques with the healing power of warm herbal compresses. Packed with Siamese yellow ginger, lemongrass, turmeric, tamarind leaf, kaffir lime, camphor, and more, the steamed herbal bags were rolled and pressed onto tension points,ย slowly tackling muscle tightness and stress. The natural healing properties of the herbs also worked wonders on our skin, sinuses, and overall well-being โ a rejuvenating treatment like no other!
