The ancestor of the Thai Massage, this ritual of rigorous stretching and body alignment was originally formulated for monks who underwent long periods of meditation and repose, but soon became an integrated practice in the Khmer society. As it uses the body’s own ability to moisturize itself, this massage uses no oils.

The hardworking founders of the Angkor empire found a way to soothe their tired bodies after each day of building their great monuments - a masage regimen using natural oils extracted from Cambodia’s endemic floral species as well as exotic ones accumulated from their trades around Asia.

Angkor Century’s signature treatment is as surprising as the name it implies. Studying the science of the bodily movements of the elephant, it uses both the hands and feet to mimic the gentle and sure footed treading of the elephant despite its mass. Two therapists perform rhythmic movements in this energizing massage to completely refresh and uplift.
