massage... hmmm...

as i previously posted, jojie and i had a massage appointment last friday. we've been wanting to schedule a scrub/massage session for the longest time but our schedule would not permit it. and then, when we actually have a free time, we... este, i lang pala... hehehe... forget to set a sched with the super duper efficent zeny, our favorite therapist at fitness first plus (kasi sobrang alaga ako sa kanya kaya ko siya favorite).

then last week, zeny called me out of the blue. she actually called us at home to make kulit when we'll be having our session! hahaha! it was a really good thing she called or else we wouldn't have remembered. tamang-tama kasi 8th month "anniversary" na rin namin ni bernard this month so tinaon na namin so the massage will serve as our anniv date.

since i was already in metrowalk for client meetings and such, dun na lang dumiretso si bernard after his work. we had an early dinner at chicken inasal (hindi masarap masyado, chicken bacolod is much better!) then proceeded to fitness first in rcbc.

zeny texted me earlier that she didn't feel well so she endorsed us to claudette instead. we got there earlier than our apppointment so jojie and i went to the locker rooms first to take a shower and freshen up. hay! ang sarap maligo! hahaha! after my long, luxurious shower, i went to the dry sauna. i tried the wet (steam) sauna before pero hindi ko nakayanan ko so hanggang dry sauna lang talaga ako. i had the sauna room to myself. ang sarap! i was able to stay long (ang record ko ata sa sauna is 45 minutes. that was withrhodora during our shower for joey... sumakit yung ulo ni dowa after pero ako hindi so i know that i can stay long talaga inside the sauna... i'm not sure nga lang kung may masamang effect na pala yun! hehe!). i took so long that i received a couple of text messages na from jojie asking me why i was taking so long.

went upstairs around quarter to 8. jojie and i always reserve the Couple Room so we can have the scrub and massage together. i chose the green tea scrub and jojie, of course, chose his favorite strawberry scrub. ang sarap ng feeling ng scrub! ang bango pa!

after the scrub, massage naman. i usually have swedish massage while jojie always has sports but my body was aching all over because of stress and all that i decided to have a sports massage as well. it was agood decision! claudette was able to remove all my (bodily) aches and pains that i just wanted to sleep after.

up to now, jojie's still kinda amazed at the fact that i have my breasts massaged... hahaha! (what is it with men and breasts anyway?)

tea is served after every session and although the tea that day wasn't as good as before, okay na rin. :)

we went home that night really relaxed and refreshed. ang funny pa, talagang na-appreciate ko lang yung massage the morning after when, while preparing breakfast, i realized na ang gaan-gaan ng feeling ko (parang ivory!) and that was when i realized na nawala talaga lahat ng sakit sa likod ko. haaay! can't wait for our next appointment.
