As you are aware, I recently returned from a 6D/5N trip to Kuching. It was hectic and I needed another vacation to recover from one, if that makes any sense. However, with a tonne of work waiting for me to tackle, that was not possible and so, I opted for the next best thing….a full relaxing body massage!
I only had a foot massage when I was in Kuching as time didn’t permit a 2-hour body massage. Upon my return to Ipoh, I headed to Pusat Terapi Bekam Kelly (also known as Pusat Refleksologi Kelly), which is located next to Symphony Suites Hotel, as I needed a body massage to work the kinks out of my stiff muscles.
This reflexology-cum-massage centre was opened in March, 2015. There are ten female massage therapists (masseuses) from Thailand and China, hence, customers can opt for either Thai-style or Chinese-style massage.
Besides full body massage for up to two hours, other services include foot reflexology, cupping (ba guan) and scrapping (gua sha). Sorry, no hanky-panky!
Like many similar centres, there are two tiers of pricing: peak and off-peak hours.
Here are the rates for the different services:
Cupping (ba guan) for 30 minutes – RM35
Scrapping (gua sha) for 30 minutes – RM35
1 hour foot reflexology (off peak hours: 10am – 2pm) – RM38
1 hour foot reflexology (peak hours: after 2pm) – RM45
1 hour full body relaxing massage (off peak hours: 10am – 2pm) – RM39.90
1 hour full body relaxing massage (peak hours: after 2pm) – RM50
1.5 hours full body relaxing massage (peak hours: after 2pm) – RM80
2 hours full body relaxing massage (peak hours: after 2pm) – RM100
Note: customers who opt for minimum of 1.5 hours full body massage will receive either one of these free-of-charge:
a) essential oil (to be used in the massage)
b) scrapping (gua sha)
c) cupping (ba guan)
Massage packages are available to reward loyal customers.
