Finally got a dose (of a much needed) relaxation at The Spa Alabang. Ten months after this gift card was handed to me. This was my prize during our Company's Christmas party of 2016. After so many tries, finally my husband allowed me to visit the spa and send me there, before we headed to MOA last Saturday. So my long (overdue) wait is over. Naawa na ata dahil alam nya kung gano ako ka stress sa mga ganap ng nagdaang buwan hahahaha... Swe....at. Hehehe..
So, I got to set an appointment with their Alabang branch three days ahead and I was warmly accommodated by their staff when I arrived at the branch. My schedule was at 1PM but they assist me to my Suite (taray! hahaha) 30 mins. earlier since maaga akong dumating.
I initially booked for a Swedish Full Body Massage, however upon staff suggestion I added up a few peso so I can also avail the Traditional Hilot Style. So it's was a combination massage style. I had to ask, what's the difference and they informed me that it includes the use of "Warm Oil and warm compress of Banana Leaves". I super need it!
They offered me if I wanted to have a shower, but I decline dahil kakaligo ko lang bago pumunta sa kanila at diretso naman ako sa sasakyan kaya di rin ako nausukan so feeling ko malinis pa din naman ako! hahaha... So after paying at the cashier and getting my receipt, they assist me directly to my designated room.
Well, there's nothing really extravagant for this room aside from it has it's own shower stalls.
But good thing, they provided what I exactly needed.
But of course I took the time to take selfie (hahaha). Mukha lang akong di masaya jan sa picture but I am indeed satisfied for my first THE SPA visit. I wasn't able to take pictures of the whole process (dahil given naman yun! hahaha). Not being too OA, I enjoyed my 60 minute stay inside the suite having all those warm oil poured out on my whole body. It was also a refreshing feeling to have the warm leaves being laid at my back. May time na masakit yung strokes especially nung dinudurog na ni Ate yung mga lamig-lamig ko hahaha... (pero I am comfortable on having hard stroke massage naman). I keep on reminding her, madami po akong lamig sa katawan. Tumatawa lang si Ate, but I hope hindi talaga siya nahirapan.
Though every Spa has their own way on providing a relaxing experience to their client. I'd like to think that this one differs. It was totally a whole new Spa experience for me. And to take note, it wasn't even my first time to do a full body massage. And because of it, I am considering to try their other offerings and services soon. Now, sa totoo lang mas magaan na yung feeling ko and so far i don't feel any excruciating pain at my back. And it's a good thing, because we are heading to the busiest months of the year. I need to be ready! (Wink) Physically and mentally, so my visit at THE Spa was all about TIMING! and I am nothing but to be grateful.
It is worth a visit.
