Lemongrass House

Award-winning spa oils, creams, soaps and other exquisite products all with enchanting aromas are a delight to experience, especially when massaged into the body.

Lemongrass House with both of locations in Surin, Cherngtalay and Chalong, sells spa and healthy skin care products, which have lemongrass as the fundamental ingredient. The company is the brainchild of Bobby Duchowny who studied aromatherapy - a healing art that promotes massage, when combined with specific herb and spice oils, as a method to reduce stress, boost energy and heal certain physical ailments - at the American Aromatherapy Association. While on vacation in Thailand, he became interested in the natural healing properties of Thai herbs and spices.

Products include hydrating face and body creams which have 25 per cent aloe vera, white orchid and cucumber extracts and a revitalizing mineral muscle soak made from Andaman Sea salt crystals, blended with white orchid and chamomile extracts, to help draw out impurities and soothe and revive tense muscles. Sample a spa treatment to help choose what to take home.

As Bobby says, 'People are sensitive to different scents at different times of day. It's a good idea to get a variety of essential oils and experiment with what smells and feels good to you,' he says. 'Our aromatherapy massage and body oils can be either uplifting or calming to the spirit. They're carefully balanced hand-blended oils created by adding pure essential oils to nourishing, vitamin E enriched, sweet almond and jojoba base oils.

Lemongrass House is an award-winning company having earned accolades from Condé Nast Hot List 2007 and has been featured in several top magazines, including Time Magazine's 'Best of Asia'.
