Introducing...

Thai Herbal Compress Therapy


We are pleased to announce our newest modality, Thai Herbal Compress (also known as Thai Herbal Ball Therapy) Straight from traditional Thai medicine, this celebrated therapy incorporates the use of a steamed, herb-filled cotton compress with the more familiar strokes of our Swedish massage.

Our compress is filled with various medicinal herbs formulated from the time-honored recipe of the Wat Po temple in Bangkok. It's great for relaxing tight muscles, relieving joint pain and encouraging blood circulation. The intoxicating scent of the herbal mixture along with the warmth of the compress is sure to leave you feeling balanced.

After your session, take your Thai herbal compress home!
The compress can be used 3-4 more times after your visit to Mellow!

Recommended at-home uses:
  • Wet herbal compress and hang it in the shower. Enjoy the aromatic therapeutic effects (helps to open up the sinuses!)
  • Soak herbal compress in a medium size pot of water for 10 minutes. Next, steam for 10 more minutes. Apply compress to sore muscles to relieve pain and tightness.


Please store your compress in the refrigerator when not in use.


Caution: This herbal compress should not be used on pregnant women, people with high blood pressure, and those who are sensitive to extreme heat.
