If you're looking for something a little more traditional than a standard oil massage, a Potli massage session at Empire Spa uses warm herbal pouches to work deep into tired muscles the Ayurvedic way. Located in Marol, Andheri East, we offer authentic Potli massage therapy designed to relieve muscle pain, reduce stress, improve circulation and promote complete body relaxation.
Potli massage is a traditional Ayurvedic therapy that uses warm herbal pouches filled with natural medicinal herbs. During the massage, the therapist gently presses and massages the heated herbal potli over different parts of the body. The warmth helps the herbal ingredients penetrate deep into the muscles, improving blood circulation, reducing stiffness, relieving joint discomfort, and promoting complete relaxation.
We're easily reachable from Andheri East, Andheri West, Marol, Lokhandwala, Versova, Juhu, Powai, Goregaon, Bandra and Vile Parle, which makes Empire Spa a convenient stop for a proper Potli massage in Mumbai without needing to travel across the city.
