Seawater
is considered holy by the Balinese, who use it during rituals,
to cleanse sacred temple artifacts, and to receive the ashes from
cremated loved ones. Seawater is also an important ingredient
in thalasso therapy, as is the optimum-level atmospheric pressure
of The Ritz-Carlton, Bali Thalasso & Spa's location overlooking
the Indian Ocean. With the world's largest Aquatonic® seawater
therapy pool as the heart of our Spa, we bring together Asian
beauty and body treatments, timeless European products, and modern
technology to promote physical and psychological well-being.
Many
of the ingredients in our signature body lotions and scrubs are
gathered from the gardens and jungles of Indonesia, yet unique
to Bali is also our use of French-based Thermes Marins and Guinot
products in our facials, deep cleansing, anti-aging and firming
treatments. Our spacious therapy villas and rooms, appointed in
rich mahogany and soothing violet hues command expansive ocean
or forest views. Peaceful resting and meditation areas overlooking
the sea encourage a holistic nurturing experience.
