Authentic Filipino "Hilot"

Re-posting this blog of mine from SPA DEALS PHILIPPINES.

The local way to healing the body from aches and other sickness uses a lot of herbs. If you're suffering from back pains, spasms, misaligned/compressed bones, frozen shoulders, fatigue or simply wants to relax, this spa shop is a real treat and answer to your needs.

Authentic Hilot is a traditional Filipino massage which was practiced long ago by our forefathers. Mandara Spa has come with a way of offering this traditional hilot. In addition, Mandara Spa has a resident healing master who is well known both in the Philippines and abroad for his healing touch.

The Authentic Hilot is also combined by Xiamen's foot massage for relaxing your feet and relieves it from pain caused by your daily walks.
So, if you're in the Makati area or in Taguig itself, this is your chance to try our authentic hilot. It is unique traditional healing experience!

Try it. They have an offer you can't refuse.

Hilot, The Filipino Traditional Massahe


This is a re-post from SPA DEALS PHILIPPINES.

I still remember how my relatives in Nueva Ecija, my mother's province, used to do "hilot" on me whenever I have fever or any problem with muscles and body aches.
Hilot is the ancient Filipino healing method practiced for thousands of years. Hilot refers to both the technique and the practitioner. Characterized by slo
w deliberate strokes and removal of blockages or lamig (coldness). Banana leaves and virgin coconut oil are key elements in this treatment. Highly recommended for individuals with upper back aches and stress-related pains and anxiety. Hilot can be supplemented with Bentosa or placement of suctioning cups.


I found this Spa shop that exactly does Hilot. Mont Albo Massage Hut located right in the heart of the University of the Philippines at the University Hotel to be precise. They are good and will give you the massage you need.
