Blog

If you are a fitness instructor and have been putting in a lot of hours to help your clients achieve personal goals that they have set for themselves, you may be feeling as if you are burning a candle at both ends and never have the time to rest and pamper yourself. If you plan on taking a few days off next month to relax, the following options will help you feel like a brand new person so that you are on top of your game when it is time to go back to work. 

Professional Massage Session

Contact a business that offers in home massages. A licensed massage therapist will provide a massage table, aromatic oils, and scented creams and will perform a massage at the time that you select. You can request a deep tissue massage that targets specific muscles or choose a massage the uses lighter hand movements and that is designed to relax your entire body.

An in home massage will be private and can be performed in whichever room you choose. Schedule an appointment for an hour or treat yourself to an extended massage that will allow you to relax more than you have in months. 

Spa Products To Be Used While Soaking In A Tub

Go shopping for some new spa products, including an exfoliating facial mask, skin wrap, loofahs, and soaps. Create a tranquil setting inside of your bathroom by drawing window curtains, filling the tub with moderately hot water, setting scented candles and holders alongside the tub, and sprinkling some bath crystals into the water.

Gather up the spa products that you purchased and place them in a basket that is set on the edge of the tub. Put on a gel face mask before getting into the tub. Take your time inside of the tub and use all of the products that you purchased to provide yourself with a complete pampering session. After getting out of the tub and drying yourself with a thick towel, put on a cotton robe.

Memory Foam Mattress Pad And Relaxing Recordings

Purchase a memory foam mattress pad to attach to your bed's standard mattress. Memory foam is soft and pliable and will conform to the shape of your body while you are resting or sleeping.

Think about some sounds that often help you sleep, such as the sound of rain falling on your home's rooftop or the sound of trickling water that is moving across rocks in a stream. Record a few hours worth of recordings of some of your favorite sounds. Purchase an audio player and headphones so that you can enjoy listening to the recordings while you are laying down. Turn off your phone and lighting in your bedroom and relax while you listen to the peaceful sounds that are on the recordings.

Going for a first-time massage can be a little intimidating. With so many types of massages available, how do you know what kind you would enjoy the most and what would be most beneficial to you? I can remember my first massage and how I felt walking into the spa for it. I was worried that I was going to do something inappropriate or not get the type of massage that I pictured myself getting. Since then, I have gone for weekly massages and have had every type of massage available to me at the spa that I visit. Read on to learn all about what to expect during your first massage and a short description of each type of massage.
