Ultimate Relaxation At Naya Boutique Spa

It’s just the middle of the week but I feel so tired and stressed out. I have been frequenting the gym and maybe this is one of the reasons why I feel restless. Looks like I need a trip to the spa. So today, I decided to visit a spa nearby. Naya Boutique Spa is located in Teacher’s Village in Quezon City. They offer different massage and spa services like massage, hot stone, body scrub, whitening scrub, hand and feet services. I decided to go for a hot stone massage which is said to ease body aches.

A hot stone massage is a type of massage therapy that utilizes the techniques of a regular body massage plus the use of hot stones. These stones are placed on different body parts like the back, hands, feet and some parts of the face. Stones that are used are smooth and flat. These stones are usually made of volcanic rock known as basalt. Basalt stones have the capability to retain heat that’s why these are used for this therapeutic massage.
Upon entry to Naya Boutique Spa, I was greeted by their courteous staff. The peppermint smell all over the place and relaxing instrumental music made me feel relax even before I had my actual massage.
My therapist started by washing my feet. They have shower rooms in case you want to freshen up before your session. It was followed by a full body massage that revived my tired body and stiff muscles. Unscented oil was used oil over my body.
Hot stones were then placed on my back, arms, legs, and face specifically my forehead. It was an hour and thirty minutes of pure relaxation.
Although we usually go to have a massage to pamper ourselves and to distress, there are other reasons why we need to reward our body with a massage. Below are 3 benefits of hot stone massage to our body.

Relaxing and Healing Effect
Full body massage alone can relax tired muscles and when combined with hot stone,
it provides an even more relaxing effect on the body and has healing properties as well.

Promotes Blood Circulation
Application of heat to the body causes blood vessels to expand. This, in turn, promotes a better blood circulation throughout the body. Increase in blood circulation means an increase in oxygenation which benefits the heart and the muscles in our body.

Sedative Effect
Do you have chronic body pain or do your muscles feel sore and heavy? Hot stones have sedative effects which relieve muscle tension and pain, reduce stress and promotes muscle relaxation.
