Experience Thai Spa Excellence: The Healing Power of Herbal Compress Balls in Thai Culture
Herbal compress balls have been a vital part of Thai wellness for centuries, blending heat and medicinal herbs to ease tension and promote relaxation. However, proper hygiene is crucial—a reused compress ball can harbour bacteria, making it unsafe for multiple users.
At Once Upon A Thai, we uphold the highest standards of quality and cleanliness with the products we use for our customers. Not only do we use our own Herbal Compress Balls made in Lamphun, Thailand, but we take pride in the fact that we never reuse herbal compress balls! Each one is used exclusively for you and then provided in a bag to take home. With proper care—keeping it dry and clean—you can enjoy multiple uses in the comfort of your home.
