Chi Nei Tsang Abdominal Detox Therapy
Chi Nei Tsang is an ancient Chinese technique that Azusa practices as a gentle, pain-free form of abdominal organ massage, addressing stress, tension, and blocked emotions that accumulate in the belly—often referred to as the “Second Brain.”
This therapy, effective for issues like digestive disorders, stress relief, and lymphatic detoxification, is renowned in Eastern medicine for its holistic benefits that improve energy flow, support organ detox, and enhance both physical and emotional health. Benefits can extend to easing digestive troubles, alleviating stress and emotional stagnation, improving sleep quality, and strengthening immunity.
Usui Reiki Energy Healing
Originating from Japanese spiritual teacher Mikao Usui, Usui Reiki involves channeling universal energy through gentle hand placements on the body, promoting relaxation, balance, and holistic healing.
Azusa’s Reiki sessions help release physical or emotional blockages, leading to stress reduction, pain relief, and a harmonized state of mind and body. Known for its capacity to support spiritual growth, Reiki connects individuals with their vital energy and enhances self-healing, offering a pathway toward both emotional and physical wellness.
Therapeutic Thai Bodywork
Therapeutic Thai Bodywork combines Northern Thai massage with shiatsu techniques, focusing on energy meridians to release tension, particularly in the shoulders, neck, and back.
Conducted on a mat and fully clothed, this approach incorporates stretches, breathing techniques, and deep tissue pressure to promote flexibility, enhance circulation, and reduce muscle stiffness. Beyond relaxation, it offers long-term health benefits, supporting proper posture and alignment while revitalizing the body’s energy.
Heart of the Earth Spa
The Heart of the Earth Spa, nestled in a tropical garden and overlooking a peaceful lotus-filled lagoon, is a sanctuary inspired by Vietnamese Zen master Thích Nhất Hạnh’s philosophy of mindfulness and holistic wellness.
This year, it received top honors in the 2024 Destination Deluxe Spa Awards and 2024 SpaChina Wellness & Spa Awards, earning titles for Spa Treatment of the Year and Best Wellness Concept. Known for its immersive approach to healing and balance, the spa offers carefully curated wellness experiences designed to foster creativity and inner harmony.
