Ok, I'm wondering what your favorite spa treatment is. I'm planning on a "Deep Tissue Massage". That more of a medical, feel better thingy.

But, I want to do something else too. No I'm not spoiled, if I was, I wouldn't have to ask for suggestions. I cut my own hair and can't remember that last time I was in a beauty shop.

I'd like to know what facials, masks, wraps, exfoliations or any spa treatments that you have had, that you absolutely LOVED and would do again if you could.
I need to book my appointment soon...
Soooo the sooner the better.

Well, I love facials. If you get a good one, it cannot be beat. BUT--and this is a big but--they are not "relaxing" when they are done well. Typically, steaming is not incredibly pleasant and the removal of "impurities" (i.e., blackheads) hurts a little bit. It's all worth it though, when you have glowing skin.

I have also had sea salt exfoliations, which are cool, but again not exactly the most relaxing thing in the world. It's amazing how great your boobs look when they have been exfoliated--they have like an inner light!--and when you give yourself a facial exfoliation at home, you will want to do it to your chest, too, cause it looks so good. They are the better alternative to wraps, IMHO.

Love pedicures. Better with parafin than without.

If your okay with someone touching your feet...REFLEXOLOGY!!! It is the greatest!

The Hot Rock treatment is also nice (different places call it different things), but not worth the money (IMO)

I prefer a sugar scrub, instead of a salt scrub. Salt sometimes pulls to much moisture from your skin and can be drying. The natural acids in the sugar are an AHA (alpha hydroxy acid), so it renews the skin also....I know this becuase I manufacture bath & body products, and the sugar scrub is by far my biggest seller.

I LOVE SPA TREATMENTS!!!!!!!!!!! I just had a 90 minute massage last week! LOL
Definitely sugar scrub over salt. Hot stones are wonderful. Love facials..if they do the massage after the extractions. Can not stand herbal wraps cause I am claustraphobic. I have done the hydrotub massages and I would just rather have a swedish.

Thanks Tishala, for the info!
Now, that inner glow sounds good...I just wouldn't want to blind my DH.

Thanks Pcakes, Djgirl, and Texannie!
(I haven't heard of reflexology, I wonder if the comes with the full body massage. I'll have to check that out.)

This is exactly what I'm looking for...the good, the bad, and the ugly.
