Kiriya Spa

Kiriya Spa is located inside the stylishly designed hotel, The LIT Bangkok Hotel along Soi Kasemsan 1, close to BTS National Stadium.

Undulating curved walls and exotic lighting beckon guests into “Kiriya” Spa, to have a time and place to  take  recess from the excitement of the city. Treatments here are  inspired by Thai performing arts and they implement the use of local herbs and spices from across the kingdom of Thailand.

Thai Dance forms from various regions of the country are reflected in “Kiriya”.

These are traditional tools (seashells, bamboos, etc) used in Kiriya’s treatments.

Be led into the calming alley where lights play a part to change your mood, preparing you for the upcoming massage.

The LIT Bangkok offers all guests 10 minutes complimentary foot massage at Kiriya Spa. All you have to do is just bring down the foot massage cream which can be found in your room.

Time now for my 70 mins  Calm Massage treatment. This is my therapist, Khun Jeab.

Calm Massage – This nurturing aromatic massage is inspired by the rolling hills of Thailand’s green northern valleys. Long calming strokes enhance circulation, creating a sense of deep relaxation, while the fragrance of fresh pine, olive and neroli and the calming rhythms of wind chimes and small bells help awaken the senses.

My massage began with a complimentary Footbath and Foot Scrub. Thai herbs are used to clean and scrub your foot before the body massage. I felt  really pampered and like I was royalty  already.

My experience at Kiriya Spa was marvellous. I don’t know exactly why, but I knew I was treated like a King inside. It was a very personalised service, every movement was slow and calming and every sound was soft and soothing.

The massage indeed was different as the therapist’s hands were not moving the traditional way. Her hands were like dancing and the touch of each dance was unique and stimulative. It was a new experience for me.

After the majestic treatment, a hot lemongrass drink helps you to clear the toxins from your body.

“Sweet, soft and slow also generous, gentle and warm are the graceful gestures and manners of welcoming and serving you at Kiriya Spa.” Yes, they are true to their promise! Now, I know why I feel majestic.
