At my old job they used to have a massage therapist come in every other Friday to give us massages. It was nice but she mostly just concentrated on the shoulders. I want to get a full-body massage. I work as a nanny and I carry kids around all day so I’m pretty sore by the end of each day!!

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 be… Read how I did it…
How I did it: We had decided to go to Belize for vacation before Christmas - the package we got had a couple's massage included so we were both stoked - especially me though (since I'd never had one before). Our resort was called Victoria House and it was completely awesome. LOVED every second of the vacation and of the massage. I didn't want the hour to end!!! I'll just have to do it again some time - maybe this time in the States. Read how I did it…

How I did it: Oh you know, I booked it and then I went haha. It was different than I thought but still relaxing. Next time I would specify that I want them to really work on the knots and tight muscles instead of just lots of rubbing. Read how I did it…
How I did it: The internet makes this much easier since many spa sites contain bios about the staff. Find a place that matches your style---casual, sophisticated, etc. Read how I did it…

BrittaP03 It is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.
My hubby got me a st of massage stones for Christmas. You heat them up in a pot of hot water over low heat for about 30 minutes, and then you place them on you back, feet, or wherever. It is completely awesome, and the heat they carry penetrate into your body quite deeply. They made my feet feel nice and toasty the other night, and they loosened up my neck pretty well, too! I like those so much better than those hand held massagers. They can hurt a lot, too, when you hit a bone by accident…

It’s not a goal I planned but it should definitely have been on my have-to-at-least-try-before-I-die-list.
However, I got one today and it was totally worth it! I have never felt so relaxed. Thanks to my wonderful friends who gave me the gift card for my 19th birthday! :D
sue820 The moment one definitely commits oneself, then Providence moves too.
Usually when I’ve been through something especially stressful or physically demanding. If I were a millionaire, I would do this once a week. Fabulous!
My friend Pii Kwun is the best. I popped in places I never knew I could. My muscles are so relaxed! In Thailand, you only have to be trained for a couple of weeks to be certified, but I hear it’s a pretty intense training. If Thai masseuses were in the States, they could charge hundreds an hour… so I’m glad I came to Thailand or I could never afford it!
Save your change (pennies, nickles, dimes, quarters) and get at least one massage a year.
