Skilled hands,
unhurried hours
Massage · Bathhouse · Body · Feet
Our therapists have practised for years rather than months, most of them here on the island. Nothing is rushed, nothing is scripted, and if something is not working they will change it rather than finish the hour politely.
Signature Soma Massage
Our own blend of Balinese and Sasak technique — firm through the back and shoulders, slow everywhere else. The one to book if you book only one.
Full body · medium to firm pressure
Deep Tissue
For divers, surfers and anyone who has just spent fourteen hours in economy. Genuinely deep, and worked around whatever hurts.
Targeted · firm pressure
Four Hands
Two therapists, one sequence, mirrored. Disorienting for the first minute and very hard to think during, which is rather the point.
Full body · two therapists
Frangipani Flower Bath
A warm soak scattered with frangipani from the garden. Ornamental, yes — but also the best possible thing to do after the sauna and ice.
Private bathhouse · couples welcome
Island Foot Ritual
A salt scrub, a warm soak and forty minutes of reflex work. Book it on arrival day, before you unpack.
Feet & lower leg
Coconut & Sea Salt Scrub
Salt, coconut oil, and a rinse under the open-air shower. Skin like the first day of the holiday, on day five.
Full body exfoliation

Book the circuit first,
the massage second.
Sauna, ice and magnesium, then hands. Muscle responds better warm, and you will get more out of the hour. Our diary is built to allow it.

Our therapists trained on Bali and Lombok before coming home to Gili Air. Pressure adjusted to what you actually ask for, in the room you actually asked for it in.

Two or three days ahead in high season. Same day is usually fine the rest of the year.
