In Bali, healing is not limited to the spa or the treatment room—it is woven into daily life, found in the hands of grandmothers, in temple offerings, and in the warm compresses applied to tired muscles after a day in the sun. Continuing this tradition, Amo Hot Balm is a modern evolution of ancient knowledge, handcrafted in the Amo Lab using time-honored ingredients known across the archipelago for their therapeutic power.
Unlike typical balms, Amo Hot Balm is rich, aromatic, and layered—blending medicinal plants, roots, and floral extracts with soothing oils and natural wax to create a balm that is as luxurious as it is effective.
A Balinese Tradition in a Jar
Amo Hot Balm is inspired by the traditional ‘balur’ and ‘boreh’ practices—rituals in which herbal pastes or balms are applied to the body to stimulate circulation, relieve pain, and rebalance energy. This practice, handed down through generations, combines the island’s abundant healing flora with intention and touch.
Created with natural ingredients and formulated to melt into the skin, Amo Hot Balm delivers warming relief to areas of tension, soreness, and fatigue. It is a go-to remedy for those who experience joint stiffness, muscle aches, or simply wish to wind down at the end of a long day.
