Hitting the Spa for Valentine′s Day

 

Studies show that the psychological effects of massage are twofold: cortisol levels decrease while seratonin and dopamine levels increase. In sexier terms: goodbye stress and hello ecstatic enlightenment (and there ain’t nothin’ you can do about it). 
Now, with this knowledge, how can anyone think of a better way to say, “I love you” or “I love me” than with a day of mega-relaxation and blissfulness – the kind that only a day at the spa allows? Force feeding your neurotransmitters happy signals this Valentines Day seems like the perfect way to indulge and unwind. 
For those “in a relationship” status holders among us, a couple’s massage or spa day together can be just what the love doctor ordered to set your minds at ease as you both ease into the romantic night ahead. Your bodies will be prepared for a continued romantic yet zen-esque evening. And for those who love love, but are currently unattached, spa parties with friends on Valentine’s Day have become a new standard; what better time to gather your nearest and dearest and to spread the love amongst friends?!  
However…
If you’d rather just stay in, plan ahead and turn your home into a romantic spa by setting the mood: Create the environment with vanilla candles to sweeten the air and mist the couch with a sexy aroma (I love Buddha Nose’s Heart Spray).  And, of course, indulge your sweetie with a massage (I love SpaRitual’s Infinitely Loving Massage Oil) that will linger in thoughts long after the day is over…visit www.massagetherapy.suite101.com for some tips on how to give the gift that keeps on giving…
