Moonlight Remedies

Every new and full moon every 1st and 15th day of the lunar month, outdoor garden

Spa Alila at Alila Ubud puts a whole new spin on natural spa treatments, now offering Moonlight Remedies in a wonderful outdoor setting, drawing on the energy of the moon in its new and full phases and the rhythms of nature. Moonlight Remedies are only available during the new and full moon every 1st and 15th day of the lunar month.

Spa-loving guests can choose to be pampered within the sanctuary of Spa Alila’s indoor spa suites, or outside amid the lush green surroundings of the resort’s Sculpture Garden on the banks of the magical Ayung River.

The remedy evokes complete mind and body relaxation as you are surrounded by nature’s lushness, breathing in the fresh air and lured by the sound of bird calls. During the period of a new moon or full moon when the moon’s energy is believed to be at its strongest, the massage treatments are conducted outdoors in a custom spa tent, open to nature yet completely private, harnessing good lunar energy to promote healing and spiritual growth.

The Moonlight Remedies treat you to a complete spa ritual that begins with our Spa Concierge personally escorting you from your room to the garden and into the caring hands of your personal Spa Alila therapist. First, enjoy a cup of warm herbal tea while the therapist reveals the healing secrets of the moon. Then, in the spirit of Balinese tradition, treatment begins with a prayer that is meant to relieve stress, calm fears and reduce anxiety, instilling a sense of well-being both physically and mentally. As you close your eyes and open your senses to nature’s serenity, your therapist’s healing hands draw upon the lunar energy to relax and rejuvenate you. Each session ends with the therapist harmonising the body through methods rooted in the spiritual traditions of Reiki.

Currently, four destination-inspired massage therapies are offered by moonlight: Balinese Massage, an ancient therapy that combines gentle stretching, long therapeutic strokes and pressure techniques to alleviate stress and tension; Alila Recovery Signature Massage, which combines Balinese long soothing strokes, Swedish deep tissue massage techniques and acupressure for a complete body re-awakening; Reflexology, which improves the flow of energy around the body through pressure applied to specific points on the feet and hands; and Indian Head Massage, dating back nearly 400 years, which reduces stress and boosts vitality through the stimulation of pressure points on the head, neck, shoulders and face. Whichever style of massage therapy you choose to indulge in, "moonlight remedies" create a wonderful moment for you to reconnect with the universe and rediscover the feeling of wellness and inner peace.

Moonlight Remedies are exclusively available during the full moon period, for only USD 125++ per person starting at 07.00pm for the duration of 90 or 120 minutes.
