Body Massage Experience with 8excite @ Zen Spa, Novotel Hotel Kuala Lumpur

 It's a Spa Pampering Day! ❤

Every girl needs to be indulged with a pampering session once in a while, don't you agree? Recently I found alot of beauty and wellness deals from 8excite where we can save up to 85% on the self-pampering sessions.

Self-pampering can be quite costly. But now with 8excite, I get to pamper myself without spending the extra bucks. What are the better ways to pamper yourself while saving yourself from burning a hole in your pocket?

85% off on Full Body Massage at Zen Spa, Novotel Hotel KL

I notice some facial treatments can go as low as RM28 per session, which is truly a shocking deal for most of us. For body massage, I chose this one from Zen Spa at Novotel Hotel which is just a stone throw away from Pavilion KL - a RM78 deal for 90-minute full body Zen traditional massage with herbal ball back massage. 

Okay, deal secured. And I get to earn some Excite Points for future redemption too :D

Zen Spa requires reservation to be made at least 2 days in advance. I made my booking via phone call, and informed them about the deal I bought. It seems that the staff is well-aware about the deal promotion that the company is doing, so no questions asked -- Just book and redeem.

For the RM78 deal I bought, I am entitled for

90 minutes Full Body Massage with Herbal Ball Back Massage / Body Scrub for 1 Person:

❤ 60 minutes full body massage (choose 1):

Zen Signature (combination of Swedish, Balinese, and Shiatsu massages) / 

Balinese / Zen traditional / Aromatherapy / Swedish

❤ 30 minutes body treatment (choose 1):

Full back herbal ball massage / Rose sea salt full body scrub

Here's the waiting area at Zen Spa. A little run-down but nevertheless, still a cosy and comfortable place to relax.

Without having to wait, the staff brings me to the locker room where I can change to

the comfy slippers and secure my belongings in the designated locker area.

The lounge area to welcome customers with a hot foot soak before going for the spa massage session.

This is also where the manicure and pedicure services are performed too.

My treatment begins with a hot soapy foot soak. No welcome drinks, in case you're wondering.

No foot scrub too, just as I thought I am expecting one.

Here's the clean, minimalist hallway to the treatment room.

Each room is designed for individual treatment, while some have two beds in the room for couple treatments.

After the quick 10-minute foot soak, we adjourn to the treatment room where my most-awaited massage session begins. Basically I can leave all my belongings on the couch here, together with my clothes at the standing hanger. 

The room is pretty decent and cosy enough to make one fall asleep while being massaged.

The first 30 minutes of the session is a relaxing Thai-style full back herbal ball massage where the therapist uses a "white ball" known as "hot herbal compress", containing numerous herbs tightly bound in fabric which is steamed until piping hot and firmly rolled onto the body.

I love how it helps in deep relaxation, relieving stress and fatigue, as well as improving blood circulation.

After a full-body, pressure point Thai massage, it is time for a 60 minutes (front and back) Zen Signature massage that combines Swedish, Balinese, and Shiatsu massages. To be honest, I have no idea on how to differentiate the combination elements, but it relaxes the body and soul. I even fall asleep halfway during the massage!

Lastly after the massage, a serving of hot ginger tea ends the pampering session well.

My verdict? A RM78 for 90-minutes massage experience is quite worth it, although not perfect,

but decent enough to give me a relaxing, soul-comforting experience.

This is my second time using 8excite (Feel free to read about my cafe hopping experience with 8excite voucher HERE!), and I love its convenience and efficiency - So easy to purchase a deal and just enjoy myself!
