First, I would like to wish all our Muslim readers a blessed and peaceful Ramadan. I hope that you are trying to take things at a slower pace like we are. And maybe you can take some time off to pamper yourself and treat your body for a relaxing and detoxifying massage.
Today, I headed to Tips and Toes salon at Dubai Media City to try out their new Rattan Foot Reflex treatment.
Summer Promotion
The spa is offering a 30% discount on all full-priced services booked between 9 am to 3 pm throughout July.
What is a Rattan Foot Reflex treatment?
I was told by my massage therapist that foot reflexology has originated from China. And of course is practiced all across the globe. In China, hot stones are used in the foot reflexology. Which is unfortunately not available at this salon. The Rattan Foot Reflex is a foot reflexology treatment where rattan sticks are used to massage the feet instead of the hands!
The therapist alternates between two rattan sticks during the treatment. A short, small stick is used to target the pressure points on the sole of the foot. While another long stick is used on the side of the foot, and held against the bones. It’s also used on the lower half of the leg in a massaging motion.
The therapist explained to me that extra care must be taken when using the stick to avoid injury. So the person doing the massage must hold the foot with the other hand.
Facts
- Foot reflexology can be done on a daily basis. Anyone can do it for themselves by using their hands to exert pressure on the points matching the different body organs.
- At first instance, the rattan treatment can be painful on some points such as the tips of the toes. So I must add that this treatment is not for the fragile souls! I would say it suits anyone who loves strong massages that use hard pressure. Even when a solid object is used to apply that strong pressure.
- The pain associated with the rattan treatment pressure motion will lessen with regular massage sessions.
Benefits of foot reflexology
- Improves blood circulation.
- Reduces stress and body tension.
- Strengthens the immune system.
- Cleanses the body.
- Purifies the body from toxins.
- Helps to regulate periods and relieves other hormone-related issues.
- Makes the body feel lighter.
My Therapist
I was pleased to get the treatment done with a Balinese therapist. She’s actually based in the salon’s “Greens” branch, but was at the Dubai Media City salon for a temporary period. So if you want to get a massage done with her, just call up “The Greens” branch and ask for the Balinese massage therapist. She’s the only one 🙂
Treatment Cost
The regular price for the Rattan Foot Reflex treatment is 150 AED for 40 minutes. But I only paid 105 AED since I booked the appointment between 9 am to 3 pm. So I got a 30% discount off of the regular price.

This is by far the worst salon I’ve been to, services were done like the staff were forced to come to work, whenever they were told it wasn’t right or anything they would give a dirty look.
The vibe was depressing, from the time I walked to the minute I finished there was pure negative attitude from most of the staff. The lady serving the drinks banged the glass on the chair making water spilt on me. Never again! And I will make sure this review is written everywhere
