Pampering Massages and Spas

The first three weeks of my vacation were really exhausting but I'm happy to be able to accomplish a lot of things in the home front, one being, the successful 50th wedding celebration of my parents. Now I have a lot of pampering time for myself that I've been wanting to have in a long time. Every time we come home for vacation, we stay for a few days usually over a weekend at the house of our generous good friends who live in the posh area of Alabang. I hired a driver to drive us there, that's one thing I so love about being here, I can easily hire help when I need one. I don't have much patience driving through the heavy traffic in Manila.

Anyway, on Friday I had the time of my life at the spa center. Though I didn't do the usual body scrub, I got an hour and a half of warm body massage and it was so relieving. I threw out all my cares in the air especially so that my son was with one of the nannies of my good friend playing with her son at a nearby play area. Also for the first time, I enjoyed eating at a resto and chatting with my good friend because my son was being fed and watched by a nanny. Then at night my good friend treated me to a home service of foot spa with pampering massage and pedicure and manicure. Wow I felt like a queen for the day.

In the Philippines you can get all these pampering services at only a fraction of your dollar, and they're quite addicting I must say. My good friend confessed that massage and spa are two of the habits that she couldn't break anymore. If only they're not so expensive in the States I can easily get hooked on them.
