Asam Roselle Experience

 
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.
