I Visited HealthLand Family Wellness Centre and This is How it Went...

Having to sit at my desk all day at work isn't the healthiest lifestyle but indeed it is not something that we can easily avoid with task to rush to meet our deadline. It took a toll on my body especially my back, neck and shoulder as I tend to have a habit to hunch when I'm working on my computer. I suffered from body aches with tight muscles and I don't have enough time to stretch my body at all. Thankfully I had the opportunity to visit HealthLand Family Wellness Centre for a full body Thai traditional massage.

If you're not familiar with HealthLand, they are a One-Stop Wellness Centre in Malaysia that is synonymous with quality, professionalism and passion for all aspects of wellness. With over 40 wellness centres, HealthLand ensures quality wellness treatments are accessible to everyone, HealthLand puts emphasis on providing 5-star services with a 3-star price tag. Aside from Klang Valley, they also have wellness centres at Penang, Melaka and Johor as well. There are five new outlets just opened in a span of 25 days but more info on that at the end of this post.

I chose to go to their wellness centre at Plaza Arkadia, Desa Parkcity as it is less than 15 minutes away from my home with traffic. Upon entering the centre, I was greeted by their staff behind the counter and he asked about my appointment which I did online through their website. Since it was weekend morning, there were about seven to eight people waiting for their masseuse or masseur to guide them to their respective rooms.

I spent about 10 minutes at the waiting area and then a small sized masseuse guided my partner and I to an area where they will wash our feet before the treatment. They then kept our sandals and gave us slippers which we will be using it until the end of the treatment.

The masseuse cleaned my feet with soap and warm water and dried it with a towel. After that we went to our private room upstairs and changed into comfortable shirt and pants provided by HealthLand. The room has dim lighting, calming music and smells nice too. It didn't have a strong massage oil smell or pungent lemongrass fragrant.

Sleepy eyes even before the treatment started. That's how relaxing the place is.

The 2 hours full body Thai traditional massage felt really good. It relaxed all my tight muscles and to be frank, I experienced some of the "moves" or stretches for the very first time which I have never encounter at the massage places in Thailand itself.

I don't think that I would be satisfied if the treatment is only 60 or 90 minutes. They've set a higher benchmark on a whole new massage experience and I am totally surprised that I don't need to go to Thailand to experience it. I must praise my masseuse who did a good job on that day.

After the massage, we changed back to my own clothes and my masseuse informed us to go back down to the waiting area. At the waiting area, our sandals were already placed at the empty seats with warm lemongrass ginger tea prepared for us on the side table. Massage can be dehydrating so drinking the tea will replenish the fluid into our body. I feel quite refreshed after that.

Overall, it was a pleasant experience for me. Of course we can't compare their treatment prices to those in Thailand (by the way, flight tickets aren't cheap these days!) but I don't mind going back again to HealthLand since it's nearby and I like that it's clean, calm and the treatment was good too. You can do all the booking online fast and easy through their website. 

If I have to nitpick on one thing, I would say the Thai Traditional treatment itself was a little too intimate at some point. Maybe I'm just not used to it yet. Haha!

Before leaving, I asked the branch manager if he can bring us to tour around the centre and he took us to the VIP room downstairs which catered for family and friends in group and perfect for those elderly who have trouble climbing up the stairs.

The interior design, furnitures and deco definitely elevate the room and indeed it looks more "atas" than the rest of the rooms in the wellness centre.

We also visited the huge foot massage theater.
