De Chy is a holistic healing centre in Benesari St, Legian.
It is not fancy or anything but they are very good. The owner is Lacinta and her son Alfonze and they have great staff, though I will admit it won't be for everyone, especially those who expect it to be like a day spa and like a soft massage. I go here when I need help with a health issue and need a good rub!

I remember about 2004 they were doing a lot of roadwork in Kuta which created a lot of dust which was really bad even for non-asthmatics and although I am asthmatic I am not chronic so often don't need to carry any ventolin. That trip my asthma was so bad I could hardly breathe and was coughing constantly. I went to De Chy and they worked on my chest for about 40 minutes solid, which resulted in clearing all my airways! It was a life saver (probably literally)

Treatments they have:

Acupuncture -(which I will admit is not for the faint hearted as it is done in conjunction with electrode therapy (like physiotherapists use) but I loved it...You also get a massage after this which is hard as it stimulates the needle pressure points, Because I was there for a major back problem and I am fairly large in build (size 16) Lacinta walked on my legs and back to massage it deep enough!!

Reflexology - (properly, not just a foot massage)

Acupressure

Cupping (a good friend gets this here and swears by it)

Chiropractic/Osteopathy

Moxibustion

Massage - shiatsu, balinese taksu, thai, hawaiian. The massage is usually quite strong so you would have to tell them if you wanted a gentler one.

They are located in Bensari St (Jl Benesari) opposite Taman Ayu II
