Kerok and Massage in Amsterdam
Clear stagnation, boost circulation, restore energy
Feeling low on energy, heavy in your body, or recovering after illness? This traditional Indonesian technique – kerokan – helps release built-up stagnation and tension by stimulating the skin and underlying tissues. Paired with a massage of your choice, this treatment activates circulation, relieves surface-level tightness, and helps your body reset.
Originally used to support immunity and detoxification, kerok works by gently scraping the skin with a smooth-edged tool and oil – encouraging blood flow and releasing blocked energy. It’s deeply cleansing, surprisingly relaxing, and perfect for times when your body just feels “off”.
When does this treatment help?
This session is ideal when you’re experiencing:
- lingering fatigue or chills after illness or overwork
- surface-level tension that doesn’t shift with massage alone
- a feeling of heaviness, stagnation or blocked energy
- the need for immune or circulation support
- slow recovery after cold/flu or low immunity phases
Your massage is tailored to your needs — from gentle relaxation to tension release. Together with kerok, it helps clear stagnation and bring you back into flow.
How we work
Each session starts with a short check-in, followed by a full-body massage combined with kerok on the back or specific areas. We only apply kerok if it’s appropriate for your condition and always explain what to expect.
- Kerok clears stagnation and boosts microcirculation.
- Massage supports muscle recovery and relaxation.
We adapt pressure and pace to your comfort level – this is always a safe, respectful experience.

our clients’ words
From physical relief to emotional breakthroughs – here’s how our clients experience the power of massage at A Very Scary Fairy.
Finishing the coaching program with the Very Scary Fairy was not easy at all, but was absolutely worth it. My husband and children as well as friends and colleagues noticed a big difference in me too. I am now doing the maintenance,, can’t recommend this enough.
WoW! I had a massage with Louiza combined with infrared led light and infrared sauna blanket and it was just the ultimate experience. Louiza’s massages are the best, she always helps me so much with my body and mind. The infrared light feels so good on the skin and the sauna blanket – I fell asleep the minute I laid in it. What a cleanse! My body and my mind are so thankful for this, everyone should try it.
Louiza has been my total wellbeing person for a couple of years now and I wouldn’t change her for the world. Her coaching program in combination with her massages have helped me turn my life around in the best of ways, and I wil be forever grateful. And the infrared sauna blanket is an amazing way to end my massage sessions.
Louiza is incredible. Her massages are thorough and they really pay off – as a breastfeeding new mom there’s little I can do to work on my posture and body, but this is just the thing. It honestly feels like a workout and after going here I always feel infinitely better and stronger. I’d definitely recommend this for anyone and can’t wait to book our next session.
I come for pre-natal massage for 7 months now (1-2 times a month) and it is really a blessing for my body. However, Louiza is a real pro in deep-deep tissue massage, she always checks in with me and my body that keeps changing all the time and gives me more relaxing approach if I can not handle our usual pressure. After last massage I felt that my 7 months belly became weightless for a few days! Thank you <3
This more than a massage. It’s a deep healing experience. I have been experiencing chronic pain for the past 3 years and this was the first time I met someone,the fairy, who understands my body and “my”pain. Now I have glimpse of hope that one day I might again have a body free of pain. Thank you! I highly recommend the fairy deep tissue massage, it’s intense !
