Many day spas have an assembly-line approach that leaves you feeling like "the clock was ticking." Most of the popular day spas have a never-ending revolving door of massage therapists working for them. As soon as you find a massage therapist you like, they're gone.
Combine that with the added stress of commuting to and from your appointment, wasting precious time you may not have, fighting through bad weather, traffic, etc.
Suddenly a trip to a day spa might not be as relaxing as it first seemed. Did you know that those interferences can often prevent or, even worse, reverse the benefits of a wonderful massage?
In today's hectic world, people more than ever want and need a relaxing, stress-reducing massage but don't have the extra time or energy to get in their car and drive yet again to another location.
Between the frustrating daily commute, long work hours and family priorities, it's getting more and more difficult to take time for yourself and squeeze everything into a single day.
Finally there's a solution just for you!
The benefits to let the massage come to you are numerous! Among them are...
No traveling required! Enjoy the pleasure of staying in your own comfortable surroundings and holding onto the benefits of your massage longer without any outside interruptions.
No miserable or dangerous weather you'll have to risk driving through.
You don't have to listen people talking on hallways of the spa, phones ringing and getting dressed without taking a shower (most of day spas don't have showers).
You save time for yourself at your place: you can start relaxing before your massage by taking a hot shower or hot bath, drinking a hot tea, listening to your favorite music and read that book you have been waiting to have the time to read it!
Keeping your blood pressure low by completely eliminating the stress of traffic jams, construction and aggravation.
