How to get a professional massage
How I did it: I had heard about Massage Envy and driven by it plenty of times. For our 2-year annivesary, I bought my boyfriend a gift certificate. And then, I decided that I might also like to get a massage. So we went together, (along with one of my roommates), and took advantage of the 1st-time introductory cost. We got one-hour massages and they were awesome! The staff was friendly and made me feel very comfortable, and they also convinced me to become a part of their Massage Envy membership program. Now, I'm entitled to one one-hour session per month, plus member prices if I'd like to add on or get another massage before I'm entitled to the next pre-paid one.
Lessons & tips: Find an affordable place that is clean, has friendly staff, and most importantly, makes you feel comfortable. Feel free to express your concerns, ask questions, and of course, make your masseuse (sp?) aware of any pain or discomfort during the massage. Get one done to de-stress, detoxify, and to relieve your body's physical aches.
