spa and massage p3

Prickly. Ya.. and a little itchy too. Maybe that's becoz it was my first time. I hadn't done this kinda thing before. So there I was, slowly undressing. Although the aircond was on, but the dim lights and scented room made it felt rather warm... Hmm.. maybe I should just skip this part, don't want people to start imagining myself naked :P

Oh-kays, but some people might just be interested in how a body scrub goes. ;) I was getting a little uncomfy lying down on the bed. There was more baring of the skin compared to the massage! The same Indo lady massaged the concoction of seaweed and loofah goo all over my body. I realised some prickly sensation on certain parts of my skin. Indo lady assured me that this was quite normal. Just bear it for awhile, and I'll be getting silky smooth skin in no time.

After covering myself from the neck down with the greenish stuff, she wrapped me up in a large plastic sheet. I felt like a christmas present. Maybe this is how stuffed turkeys feel like. Marinated all over and covered in aluminium foil. Except that I wasn't going into the oven.

I must've been lying there for ages when the 15-min time limit was up. She carefully unwrapped me, like how one would unwrap a roasted turkey. I stepped into a sarong which she was holding and went into the shower. It felt so good having the water run over me. All those pricklyness went away together with the flowing water. My skin really felt silky smooth. She didn't bluff me! I'm beginning to feel all pampered again.

Then back into the massage room for a final massage with essential oil. This only lasted for about 10 minutes, but it was good enough. I had the option of having a full body massage, but that of course means full payment lah. And besides, I had an appointment with Rene.

Before leaving the Nail Studio (yes, they specialise in manicures and pedicures, but they have body treatments as well) I found out that I still had about RM3 left from the voucher. Hmmm... what I shall pamper myself with next? :D
