ASAM ROSELLE (ROSELLE BODY TREATMENT)
More than three centuries ago the Roselle plant (Hibiscus sabdariffa L) was
introduced into Malaysia from India. This pretty plant with dark red flowers,
and unique healing powers, very quickly adapted to the fertile soil and tropical
climate, and now grows wild throughout the country. It is known by different
local names across peninsular Malaysia: Asam Paya; Asam Kumbang or
Asam Susur.
The red Roselle flower has a high vitamin content, containing
vitamin C, fruit acids, calcium, iron, potassium as
well as antosianin, and has long been used in traditional
medicine and local delicacies. It is known to benefit
the kidney system, lower blood-sugar levels, and have
diuretic and anti-inflammatory properties. It forms
natural collagen and assists in vitamin absorption thus
improving complexion, and assisting with anti-aging.
ASAM RELAXING MASSAGE
Drift away as a massage of long kneading strokes focuses on your muscles and
joints easing away all your aches and pains. The naturally asam (sour) scented
massage oil, a blend of Roselle, ginger, nutmeg, galangal and karoteno oil, is
full of vitamins A, C and E which rejuvenates your body and nourishes the skin.
ROSELLE CREAM SCRUB
Indulge in the absolutely creamy Roselle scrub, which exfoliates and removes
dead skin cells. The moisturising sweetly aromatic concoction with added rice
and coconut oil is rich in natural vitamins and fruit acids, which softens and
refines the skin to a baby smooth texture.
ROSELLE TEA
The treatment concludes with a cup of Roselle tea – red as the Roselle flower’s
petals, and high in anti-oxidants. The perfect end to a soothing treatment. |
