Long gone are the days when a good spa treatment required a trip into Seminyak. Canggu’s spa scene has finally caught up, and between the vegan cafes and boutiques a whole lot of pampering can be found. World-class hair treatments, eye-lash extensions, chiropractic adjustments, you name it. There’s not a body treatment unavailable in this neck of the woods.
K BY KARIMA
Royal blue accents and hammered copper decorative items complete the plush-Euro setting of K by Karima. But the beauty of the spa fades to insignificance when the treatments reveal themselves, layered with subconscious spirituality and indescribable bliss. K by Karima is the only place in Bali offering the unique floating bed massage, a treatment often likened to returning to the womb of the mother; a pre-life otherworldly bliss.

BODY TEMPLE
Part of Finn’s Recreation Club on Jalan Pantai Berawa, Body Temple is a one stop shop for all body rituals. Complete with a hair salon managed by Toni and Guy and a chiropractor cum osteopath cum physiotherapist of immeasurable talent, you could easily waste a day (or three) here interrupted only by a hit of tennis and lunch at Bistro C. Offering ultimate seclusion and serenity despite the bustling location and adjoining waterpark, sign up for a 90-minute Body Temple Ritual complete with coffee and mint body scrub.

THERAPY
In the igloo like setting of Therapy you’ll find spa treatments set to hypnotic Indian temple noises. Their 90-minute massage is a slow and rhythmic dance complete with a hot pack of stones and lengthy foot scrub. First opening in Canggu in April 2013 before opening in Seminyak in August 2016, Therapy is an otherworldly escape just up from Echo Beach. Their Sparkling Iceballs Facial is their pièce de résistance, but all of their treatments are worth a shot, particularly given they use only top of the line products containing natural vegan ingredients that support home industries and local island trade practices.

GLO
With four locations in Bali – Sanur, Canggu, Seminyak and Nusa Lembongan – you’re not likely to find yourself too far from a Glo Salon. Operating since 2005, Glo are known as the first to bring the city-style spa to the island, offering high-class treatments from impeccably trained staff. Their Warm Stone Hair Revival has long been challenging the notion that it’s hard to find a good hair treatment in Bali, and is a must after umpteen days submerged in saltwater.

AMO SPA
Once a Petitenget institution that compelled many a Canggu-trapped expat to leave their bubble, Amo Spa emerged on Batu Bolong in 2010 to a sincere round of applause. The cavernous, warehouse-inspired space boasts the same line-up of treatments that earned its polished reputation in Seminyak, with the facials sitting at top priority. Moet by the bottle and IV Therapy cements Amo’s place as one of the best spas in Canggu.
