Hilot Pinoy

(Traditional massage & Bentosa)

Hilot Pinoy is an ancient Philipino healing method practiced for thousands of years. Hilot refers to both the technique and the practitioner. Characterized by slow deliberate strokes and removal of blockages or “Lamig”. Ginger and oil are key elements in this treatment.

Bentosa or placement of suctioning cups is also used. This is the type of treatment that uses a CUP or a GLASS that aims to suction the COOL SPOTS in the body (particularly the back) which is believed in some cultures to mean the lack of blood circulation. Cold spots are also the same spots that are given “extra emphasis” by those who believe in Shiatsu massage. Most Holistic believers say that these “cold spots” mean that there is something wrong with the Chi-balance in one’s body, thus causing chronic pain. It also is proven to detoxify the body from toxins.

Highly recommended for individuals with upper back aches and stress related pains and anxiety.
