Would you believe? There's one addiction that is actually good for your mind and body and it's called SPA. Massage, aromatherapy, pampering, indulgence, soothing strokes, point pressure--these are some images that come to mind whenever I hear the word. Ever since I had my first massage (honestly I don't remember anymore when this habit started, few years back for sure) I know that this is something that I want to have on a regular basis.
Trying out different services in different locations will help you find your oasis. It's actually beneficial for you to try out different spas. As of last count, I've already tried several and am happy about this search. In fact this is the only search that I want to do for life.
If you're a newbie and don't really have an idea what spa to avail, here are suggestions:
Swedish massage--this the most basic of massage. Expect an hour of long strokes from toe to head. Your muscles will become relaxed soon enough and tight muscles will be immediately relieved from pain and aches. Instruct the masseuse to avoid the eye area if you're wearing contacts. The therapist will ask for your preference, whether you want it hard, medium or soft. Tell the massage therapist truthfully if you're uncomfortable with pressure. Too hard can make your body ache after the session. Feel what's right for you.
Alternative: Shiatsu is a pressure massage, so if you're the ticklish type, you may not want to have this service. You can always ask for the swedish/shiatsu combination just so you can experience both in one session.
Price: Ranges from 200 to 1500 pesos. You may also phone in and have this relaxing experience in your own bedroom.
Foot spa--If you don't have time for a whole body massage, this one's a good alternative. Foot spa is what facial is for the for the face. Some spas include foot scrub (most offer it separately). If you have it regularly, you won't only feel good, you can also expect good-looking footsies--soft, stronger, callous free and pinkish too.
Foot massage--This is the service dedicated to foot reflexology. While foot spa is part massage, part scrub, part cleaning, foot massage is all about unblocking good energies so that you'll feel better. It sure is a good stress buster.
These are the basic recommendations for first timers. More in the next post.
Live healthy, live well!!!
