Bersih Sehat (Indonesia, Jakarta)

I was in Jakarta in Oct last year just to try out the massage. Dear husband has been raving about a massage chain which he said gave the best massage ever. If you like deep tissue massage, Indonesian massage is
for you.
So I flew in.

The chain is called BERSIH SEHAT. It has been operating since 1983 and is ISO certified.

Its a basic spa. If you want a good massage minus all the frills, this is the place. In Jakarta alone, there are 8 branches.

For a good 2 hour massage, it cost about US$30. If you want to add a scrub(lulur) with the massage, its about US$35.

I tried massages at 2 place, at Mayestic and Hotel Sahid Jaya. I like the latter establishment as it was quiet. This is quite funny, but after the massage you can leave with a Berseh Sihat comb which they leave at the vanity table for each client.

I intend to highlight recommendations from people who are actual spa goers and spaholics to give their verdict of their spa experiences so that other spaholics and those desperate for massage are ensured of a heavenly experience.

If you wish to share your spa heaven or hell experiences, plse do drop me a line.

Let's share...
Just realised that I have not updated anything for sometime.

So now I am back with a vengence. New year, new dreams, new aspirations and new found vigour.

Last year, I attended a spa summit in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. It had many reknown people in the industry. Though the speakers were good, the summit could have been better organised.

I left the summit feeling rejuvenated though.
