Pots & Pans By CHEF ED DYCHAUCO Updated August 29-30, 2009 12:00 AM
CONVENIENTLY located along Tiano and Akut Streets here in the city is another wonderful place to unwind and be pampered for a fantastic and relaxing massage to loosen and lighten up those sore and tired muscles.
Owned & operated by the Chavez family with the handsome and very entrepreneurial Mr. Cyril Chavez as the manager and ably assisted by his brother Ken, Body Treats Spa was opened to the public a couple of months ago. Tucked with a degree in Hotel and Restaurant Management, Cyril also teaches in one of the HRM schools here in the city. Only in his early 20s, he felt that there is a need for a place where people can truly spend quality time and be treated like a royalty while at the same time, ease those body pains and have an enormous positive effect on the physiologic well-being.
Several well-trained and courteous male and female therapists are available to do the following services: authentic massage therapies including Swedish massage, shiatsu, holistic, reflexology, foot spa and lymphatic drainage (slimming massage). International massages comprise of: Hawaiian Lomi Lomi, Traditional Filipino hilot massage and healing hot stone. And not only do they offer massages, they also do world renowned body scrub treatments like: volcanic micronized salt body scrub (thalassotherapy), ayuverdic body scrub, milk and honey scrub, aromatherapy body scrub and fruit body scrub. And for facial treatments, they have: anti-oxidant facial a clay essence facial.
I was personally treated to two very wonderful and soothing massages (on two separate occasions, of course). The first one was the well-loved of all massages, the Swedish massage which I find comforting and truly relaxing. However, it was the “healing hot stone” massage that made the experience more restful and beneficial to my fatigued and worn-out body! The use of those expensive heated “basalt” black stone was beyond doubt the best thing that has happened to me in the many years that I have been to spas. The therapeutic stones were placed at major points of my back and later, used to do the circular and long strokes that made the experience more wonderful! Try it to believe it!
With gentle and comforting background music of nature (sounds of rain, thunder, chirping of birds and the like) made the simple, unpretentious spa into a heaven while here on earth.
For the budget conscious, they offer a 20 percent discount from Monday to Friday starting at 12:00 noon to 5:00 p.m. Body Treats Spa can be reached at 0922-866-1715. They are open every day from 12 noon to past 12 midnight depending on the number of guests. Email them at bodytreatsspa@yahoo.com or visit their website: www.bodytreatsspa.multiply.com for more information.
Incidentally, Body Treats Spa is only one of the two spa centers in the city that is a member of the Spa Association of the Philippines, which means they truly adhere to strict guidelines and rules of maintaining a spa in an appropriate and respectful manner as mandated by law.
Experience Body Treats Spa authentic services as your gateway to the fountain of youth and feeling of heaven.
Come and try it to be pampered and take pleasure in enjoying what life has to offer!
