Classic and relaxing massage
Choose this family when the priority is rest, flowing touch and a recognisable full-body treatment. Pressure can still be adjusted, but the atmosphere is generally calmer than a targeted recovery session.
Relaxing massage
A gentler session with an unhurried rhythm and pressure adjusted for rest.
Oil massage
Smooth full-body massage using oil, with the blend and coverage agreed before the visit.
Aromatherapy massage
Relaxing oil massage with a selected aromatic blend, subject to preference and sensitivity.
Deep, therapeutic and recovery-focused massage
These formats begin with a purpose: sustained pressure, post-activity recovery or warmth. Tell Ritual which areas matter and whether you want firm work throughout or only on selected zones. Hot-stone preparation must be confirmed before the visit.
Deep tissue massage
Slower, firmer work on selected areas for guests who prefer more sustained pressure.
Sports massage
Targeted bodywork shaped around activity, recovery and the areas that need attention.
Hot stone massage
A warmth-led treatment using heated stones, confirmed with the required setup in advance.
Other massage techniques requested in Bali
Some guests arrive with a technique in mind that is not one of Ritual’s permanent headline treatments. These requests are welcome, but specialist availability is checked before the visit rather than implied by a long menu.
Thai massage
Compression and assisted stretching, normally performed without oil. Ask whether floor space and a suitably trained practitioner are available.
Swedish massage
A familiar oil-based format using flowing strokes, kneading and pressure adjusted for relaxation or general muscle ease.
Foot massage and reflexology
A foot-focused session can be requested. If you specifically want reflexology, name it so the appropriate practitioner can be checked.
Pregnancy or prenatal massage
Requires pregnancy stage, positioning needs and relevant medical information to be shared before an appropriately trained practitioner is confirmed.
Lymphatic drainage massage
A specialist light-touch technique. State whether the request is general wellness or follows surgery or a medical recommendation; clinical concerns require the relevant qualified professional.
Ayurvedic, Shiatsu and head massage
Name the exact approach you want rather than treating these distinct traditions as interchangeable. Ritual confirms training, setup and availability before booking.
Sensory, tantra-inspired and close-contact formats
These experiences are chosen by atmosphere and kind of contact rather than by pressure alone. Ritual’s named signature experiences have published durations and prices; other specific formats are clarified privately before confirmation.
Tantra-inspired Sensory Wellness
Slow, attentive bodywork with pace, pressure and focus areas agreed together.
Soft Touch Ritual
Hair play, featherlight contact, gentle scratching and slow skin tracing.
Close-contact formats
Body-to-body, nuru and other specific requests discussed privately before confirmation.
How to choose without guessing
Start with your goal
Rest and switch off, ease a specific area, recover after activity, explore lighter sensations or create a more intimate atmosphere.
State your preferred pressure
Light, medium, firm or mixed. Firm pressure is not automatically better, and a therapeutic focus does not require force everywhere.
Name the guest and practitioner preference
Say whether the appointment is for a man, woman or couple and whether you prefer a male or female practitioner. Availability is confirmed, never assumed.
Confirm the complete offer
Ask for the exact technique, duration, setup, practitioner, transport and full price before booking.
