The practice of pampering and self-care isn’t new to the Balinese. For thousands of years, the ladies of both Bali and Java would indulge in ancient beauty rituals on a daily basis. This is especially true for women of nobility. These days, the opportunity for self-care and relaxation is available everywhere and anywhere you look, with a myriad of treatments to choose from including full-body massages, scrubs, creambaths for strong and healthy hair, reflexology, facials and nail care.

According to some sources, the intricate beauty treatments practised by the Balinese and Javanese ladies today date back to the time of the Ramayana. It is believed that when Hinduism and Buddhism arrived in the archipelago, they brought with them the Ayurvedic practice of healing and wellness through touch and energy channeling.

The Balinese then adapted this ancient technique to create their own unique style that is so famous around the world. If you’re in Bali and staying at The Colony Hotel, you will have exclusive access to the prestigious and award-winning spa, Jari Menari.
