The Asian spa music is derived from natural instruments like flute, three stringed lutes, horse hair fiddles and wooden or metal harps. The Asian spa music is serene tranquil and mostly composed of flutes and is used by mandara and antara spas.
The flute is a frequently used instrument in Asian health spa music. It has a plain design. The willow flute is quite different and sweeter sounding than the common flute. The absence of holes on the willow flute sets the difference between them. A fipple mouthpiece makes the air flow from a hole where the musician plays and puffs into the instrument. They call this flute, sallow flute.
Apart from the flute there are many other musical instruments which are quite relaxing and can be used for instrumental spa music. An example for this would be the sitar, a popular Indian instrument, which is like a zither and has strings over arched metal frets.
