Deanna Signature Massage Explained: Balinese, Shiatsu & Lomi-Lomi in One Treatment

When a spa offers a “signature massage”, the name should mean more than simply another full-body treatment.

At Deanna Spa & Café in Seminyak, the Deanna Signature Massage combines three massage traditions in one longer experience: Balinese, Shiatsu, and Lomi-Lomi.

Instead of choosing between a purely relaxing massage and a treatment with more targeted pressure, the Signature Massage brings different styles together into one Deanna Spa experience.

What Is the Deanna Signature Massage?

The Deanna Signature Massage is listed as a combination of:

• Balinese Massage
• Shiatsu
• Lomi-Lomi

It is available in 90-minute and 120-minute sessions, giving the therapist more time than a standard short treatment to work across the body at a relaxed pace.

This may suit guests who want a more complete spa experience rather than focusing on only one technique.

1. The Balinese Influence

Balinese Massage is closely associated with the spa experience visitors expect when coming to Bali.

It commonly uses a combination of flowing massage movements, kneading, pressure, and gentle stretching to create an overall relaxing treatment.

Within a Signature Massage, this provides the foundation for a treatment that still feels connected to the island you are visiting.

2. The Shiatsu Influence

Shiatsu is associated with more focused pressure applied to areas of the body rather than relying only on long flowing strokes.

This makes it a useful contrast to the softer rhythm of a relaxation massage.

The intention of combining different influences is not to make the treatment unnecessarily strong. Pressure should always be adjusted according to your comfort.

Tell your therapist whether you prefer:

• Gentle pressure
• Medium pressure
• Firm pressure
• Extra attention on selected areas

3. The Lomi-Lomi Influence

Lomi-Lomi is known for smooth, rhythmic and flowing massage movements.

Its influence complements the other techniques by helping the treatment maintain a sense of continuity and relaxation rather than feeling like a series of disconnected movements.

The result is a treatment designed to feel more varied than choosing only one massage style.

Who Should Choose the Deanna Signature Massage?

This treatment may be ideal when:

• You want more than a basic one-hour massage
• You enjoy a combination of massage styles
• You want both relaxation and more focused pressure
• You are celebrating a special occasion
• You have enough time for a 90 or 120-minute treatment
• You want to try one of Deanna’s distinctive treatments

It can also be a good choice for returning spa guests who already know that they enjoy massage and would like something more comprehensive.

90 Minutes or 120 Minutes?

The best duration depends on your schedule and the kind of spa experience you want.

Choose 90 Minutes If:

• You want a complete treatment but still have other plans
• You are comfortable with a standard longer massage session
• You want extra attention beyond a typical one-hour massage

Choose 120 Minutes If:

• You want a slower and more unhurried experience
• You have several areas you would like the therapist to focus on
• The spa treatment is one of the main activities of your day
• You simply want to dedicate more time to relaxation

Tell Your Therapist What You Need

A signature treatment should still be personal.

Before beginning, tell your therapist about:

• Your preferred massage pressure
• Areas that feel particularly tense
• Areas you prefer not to be massaged
• Recent injuries or sensitive areas
• Your previous massage experience

Good communication helps the therapist adapt the treatment to your comfort rather than assuming that everyone wants the same experience.

Signature Massage or Balinese Massage?

If you want a straightforward traditional Bali spa experience, a Balinese Massage may be all you need.

If you want a longer treatment that combines several massage influences and feels more distinctive to Deanna Spa, consider the Deanna Signature Massage.
