My brother-in-law, aka "Daddy", bought my sister-in-law and I a massage in L.A. as a Christmas present! I was completely surprised as well as excited when she told me we would be going. We headed over to the spa for some serious pampering around 11 am. We arrived and immediately were escorted into the women's dressing room which we were provided robes and slippers. After that we went and waited in the lounge. We were immediately greeted with hot tea and a tub of warm water, stones, rosemary, and orange peel to soak our feet. AMAZING. Shortly after, we were taken to our individual rooms and the 1 hour message began. I generally don't like massages for numerous reasons. 1) I cramp up the instant I stand up after it is over. 2) I get dehydrated. 3) They hurt when they are "working out a knot". However, after an hour in heaven with Julia, I have come to the other side..... I love massages!!!! Additionally, we got to enjoy the women's spa area afterwards. It had a shower with shower heads in every direction including a rain shower up above.... I will be getting one of these (after I win the lottery)! I was so relaxed for the entire day after it was over. I can't thank Luke enough for getting me this special treat for my holiday vacation!
After ranting and raving about how much I loved this spa, I decided to drag Moe in for a pedicure the next day. Now this seems like it wouldn't be a big deal, but trying to convince a guy that it is 100% acceptable for men to go to a spa is not an easy task. After booking the appointment, and spending a day and half telling Moe that it involves a foot massage and promising no nail painting will occur, he agreed. I also reminded him that he is in West Hollywood and men going into a spa is a regular event here. Anyways, the outcome was as I expected.... HE LOVED IT!
