While many rub downs have predetermined strokes, this massage, native to the Philippines, is customized to each individual. asian spa badian cebuAside from the tranquil setting and beautiful scenery, world-class Badian boasts of its Badehaus where the asian spa treatment uses centuries’ old blends and recipes combined with modern techniques.

It offers its special baths such as herbal, guava, pandan, rampe and Cleopatra. Likewise, the healing power of island’s seawater in Thalasso coming from the word “Thalassa” meaning “ocean” is a breakthrough in spa treatment.

It contains a complex blend of natural minerals and antibacterial properties, and submersion in seawater, which promotes relaxation and rebalancing of the body’s mineral deficiencies.

The sheltered retreat boasts views of Bora-Bora and Taha’a Island. This ultimate island gateway tops the list for so many reasons. It boasts of 48 suites hovering above the ocean and 12 villas. The breezy Manea Spa lies in a coconut grove between a small lake and lagoon where the monoi pape miti vanira massage includes locally grown vanilla. Pushing indulgence to new heights, are two body-shaping sessions which take the massage table into the lagoon with the therapist waist-deep in water.

Ranked as second world’s best spa island is Soneva Fushi Resort, a stand out choice in the Maldives. The resort‘s Kunfunadhoo Island is both private and surrounded by a coral lagoon. Each villa is only a few steps from a dip in the warmth of the Indian Ocean and hidden from the others by dense vegetation. It’s enough to make it seem as though the island is uninhabited. It’s Six Senses Spa serves up an impressive range of treatments specifically its sensory spa journey where two therapists work in harmony pressing and stroking in unison during the body aroma massage. It all starts with a foot bath followed by a scalp massage and facial.

And third on the list is Pangkor Laut Resort in Perak Island, Malaysia which is a secluded resort located in the Straits of Malacca with signature sea villas built on stilts over the water.

Currently, health holidays are growing globally significant. Asian spas have already developed health tourism product since health and wellness using traditional healing methods like massage, healing and herbs is very much a part of Asian culture.

In a bid to position the country as a premier health holiday destination in Southeast Asia, the Philippine Department of Tourism continues to broaden the marketability of the Philippines as a destination by way of diversifying its tourism product offerings such as wellness and medical tourism. The Filipino’s facility in English as a second language in addition to the competent health professionals who were trained in the United States and Europe is also a plus factor.
