Description

Traditional Balinese culture has utilized the banana leaf as an integral part of village life. Every village has a grove of banana trees and the leaves have been used extensively for cultural, spiritual, medicinal and practical applications. We use banana leaves in this unique body wrap treatment, which combines the use of massage, banana leaves, coffee scrub and papaya to rehydrate and replenish your skin. Banana leaves contain large amounts of polyphenols such as epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG). Polyphenols are natural antioxidants found in many plant based foods. EGCG belongs to the family of catechins. It contains 3 phenol rings and has very strong antioxidant properties.
