Tibetan Spa Detoxification Package: Herbal Foot Steam Therapy + Microcirculation for P250 (P600 value) for 1 person or P400 (P1200 value) for 2 persons at Bio Safe Center.

What does Tibet got to do with Quezon City? A unique detox treatment, that's what.


Bio Safe Center utilizes holistic healing methods to help rehabilitate ailments, encourage relaxation, and rejuvenate battered bodies. The Tibetan Spa Detoxification starts with an herbal foot steam therapy session based on the traditional Chinese forms of healing. The therapy helps to improve the Qi, which is believed by many to be the driving life force of all living creatures; in a nutshell however, it just feels very rejuvenating. The foot experts at Bio Safe Center use heated Chinese herbs, which pass through the skin and pores of the feet and the acupuncture points, directly absorbed by ionization to cell membranes, organs and glands to remove enflamed parts of the body, therefore balancing, fortifying, and giving the body the power of flight during deep lucid dreams.

Highlights

• Rejuvenating treatment that improves blood circulation
• Enhances metabolism and facilitates weight loss
• Helps improve sleep
• Herbal steaming promotes detoxification through sweating
• Prevents pre-mature aging because of its anti-stress attributes
• Was featured in EntrepreNews

It's all about detoxification the Tibetan way.

This is really worth trying.

Have a pleasant time being rejuvenated.

Massage, the Donsol Way

The CRC Team at the Tourist Center (me on the rightmost)

A team of 7 from the Covenant Renewal Church and I, were in Donsol for a week of ministry at the Iam Redeemer and Master Evengelical Church (IRM). Ptr. Noel Belo, a relative of Dr. Vicky Belo, is the Pastor of IRM invited us.

Donsol's town center. Very Colorful.

Donsol is located in the Province of Sorsogon, in the Bicol region. The town's population is about 50,000 and is traditionally engaged in fishing and agriculture.

But Donsol is better known for its BUTANDING, a whale shark is the world's largest fish. The Butanding appear in Donsol's waters in considerable numbers between December and May of each year, taking advantage of dense food concentration. Tourists arrive in throngs because of these whale sharks.

The whale sharks arrival prompted the local community with interaction tours, and visitors now have the chance to swim alongside these majestic creatures. Unfortunately, we missed them when we were there.

But, we got a better deal. Ptr. Noel gave us the best hospitality and booked us at the Santiago Lodging house. The lodge is an old spanish house converted to a lodging house. Our stay there was relaxing and homy.

The entrance to the Santiago Lodging House (Gina Mae, Wawel and Jossie)

The best thing he did was when he gave us a relaxing massage, Donsol style. Ptr. Noel is an accredited Physical Therapist. He also imparted these art to his followers and they all gave us massage. Jomar, one of his disciples, treated me to a muscle wrenching, bone cracking yet relaxing massage. I was so relieved that he took out the "hangin" (air pockets) on my back. I felt relieved after that massage.

Ptr. Noel doing a reflexology on Ptr. Gene Romero

I also took photos of the other Spa shops around town.

I look forward to going back in time for the whale shark's arrival in January, 2012.

Here's to Ptr. Noel and to Donsol: thank you so much for the experience.

An array of Food and Massage

The first time I went to Wensha Spa, I didn't know what to expect. My friend, Ptr. Favor and his wife, Glo, brought us to this popular spa located in Pasay City, near the Cultural Center of the Philippines.

The thing that really impressed me was the array of Chinese, Japanese and Korean food that was served. It was a feast! For P600++, you get to eat the smorgasbord (eat all you can) and then after resting you get your massage. The massage therapy was excellent.

Wensha Spa has a branch in Quezon City along Panay Avenue. They also offer the same array of food and massage treatment.

It's time to try Wensha Spa.

Sure Hot Stone Massage

My wife's favorite massage option is the hot stone. Because she does a lot of household chores, I treat her by way of a massage therapy. I did stone therapy ones and I liked it too. What it does is allow the heat from the stone to penetrate into the deep muscle tissues. The therapist is careful to put the stone on your back making sure that the hest will not harm you but will soothe your back and relieves the stress altogether.


Many tourist find that our spa are unbelievably offering very cheap but quality massage treatment. I agree with that observation. My friends from Australia and Japan doesn't miss these massage treatment whenever they are in town.


Today, I would like to introduce you to Nouva Spa's Hot Stone massage.
P740 (P1480 value) for a Hot Stone Massage at Nuovo Spa. 
If you want a quick remedy for body aches, you've got to try this one. This is cheap and quality offer from Nouvo Spa.

Nuovo Spa's comfortable atmosphere is a safe house for clients fleeing from stress, with customized treatments provided during services based on a client's needs. The hot-stone massage combines massage moves with smooth, hot stones that have been thoroughly lathered in oil. The gliding orbs allow heat to soothingly penetrate skin, infusing buried muscles with relaxation and relief. The body-bliss treatment transforms entire exteriors from dull dryness to bright silkiness. The experience includes a restful massage to gently pummel aching muscles into submission and a full body buttering, also making skin feel as smooth as a piece of sourdough bread mircrowaved for no more than 25 seconds. 

This is an offer you can't let go. So why not try another of Quezon City's wellness center, Nouvo Spa.

Energizing Thai Massage

Wifey and I did something different last Sunday. We ventured into a thai massage shop we've seen being frequented on weekends. True to my expectation, we arrived and found no more parking space for our car. We have to settle, together with five other clients, for a parking near the St. Teresa's College. Of course, my wife got sentimental about the school because that's where she finished her secondary education.


So what am I talking about? 


For most of our massage experience, we normally get swedish or shiatsu massage. We are a regular customer of Rilassante Spa, our favorite spa center located in front of the National Orthopedic Hospital.


But, thai massage? We were excited to try something new. So, we went to one of the best but cheap thai massage center, Thewi Thai Massage  located along D. Tuazon St., in Quezon City.

It was a discovery as we cherish every minute of the massage. There I was together in a room with my wife. I put on the shorts but not the T-shirt because I was used to having nothing on top for the swedish massage. To my surprise, the therapist ask me to wear the t-shirt.


I was told that thai massage came to Thailand and was performed by the monks as one component of their thai medicine. I find the Thai Massage more rigorous and energizing than the more classic forms of massage. Thai massage is also called the Thai Yoga massage because the therapist uses her or his hands, knees, legs and feet to move me into a series of yoga-like stretches. They say Thai Massage is like doing yoga without any work. I feel very relaxed and my wife said it was calming, she almost fell asleep.

I think Thai massage works to put you to sleep. The client next to our room was snoring.


If you are in Quezon City, and you are looking for a very good and cheap Thai massage, the Thewi Thai Massage is one of the best! How cheap? P200 for an hour of relaxing, rejuvenating, energizing massage.


I think Thai massage will be part of my monthly spa treatment.


To your wellness,
Jimmy

A Relaxing Spa In the Comfort of Your Home

I used to have a spa massage at home. Our neighbor, Bong Velasco, owns the famous Aromatherapy Center. She introduced the concept of using aromatherapy oils in her spa center. In fact, she concocts her own oil using imported ingredients. My wife and I looked forward to an evening of authentic aromatherapy massage, right in the comfort of our bedroom. She recently opened a new shop called Salon-Aromatherapy Center located at 101 Pearl Condo, Pearl Drive cor. Ortigas Avenue, Pasig City. For easy reference, it's beside Richmond Hotel in Pasig. 


What about having a Strawberry body scrub in the comfort of your home? Different stroke isn't it? 

Here's what 88 Express Home Massage offers a sweet getaway in the comfort of one’s home. Lavish in a sweet and delicious strawberry smelling rubdown to eliminate dead skin cells, and at the same time provide smoother, lighter and a more fragrant skin. Also a therapeutic Swedish Whole Body Massage is thrown in there, for the ultimate relaxing kneading for stressed out workaholics, overworked matriarchs and poppas who want to get their massage fix after a day’s work in the fields and the war zone. Based on Swedish massage techniques passed down by battle-fatigued Viking warriors, it calms and massages muscles with long, relaxing strokes, warming the blood and lulling the body into a state of placidity. Tell the friendly massage therapist specific ailments or stresses so they may customize the treatment by honing in on trouble spots, such as the part of the back that's currently frozen by the cold winter.

P625 (P1250 value) for a strawberry body scrub + 60-min Swedish massage from One 88 Express Home Massage

Here's the good thing. Their home service covers Quezon City (Green Meadows, White Plains, Corinthian Gardens and Eastwood City).
