Traditional Thai music spirits you away from the din of the traffic along the main road.  For hours,  you are transported to a serene haven sheltered from the urban chaos …. your mind still and free from all worries even for just a little while… This is the Nuat Thai experience.

Nothing caps off a massage better than A Cup of Hot Tea

Last Friday,  Hubby and I were treated to massage services at Nuat Thai Libis.  We were not strangers to Nuat Thai as we frequent a branch that was located within walking distance from our home.  I was surprised to see though that Nuat Thai Libis was bigger, had more amenities, and offered more services.  Going there for a massage was truly well worth the ten-minute drive from our place.

Our date night started off with a foot scrub that was followed by one hour of Thai Foot Massage (P 250).  I get cold easily so the hot packs they placed under my lower back and my neck kept me warm and cozy the entire hour.  I had a few minutes of discomfort though when pain shot up through one of my toes (yup, just the itty-bitty middle toe on my right foot) during the massage.  My masseuse told me a nerve was hit then continued to massage my foot until the pain was gone.  Aside from that toe cramp, the Thai Foot Massage was quite relaxing.  That alone would have already made me sleep better that night but they had more in store for us.

Green Tea, Eucalyptus, or Lavender? I chose Lavender to calm my nerves and to ease my muscle pains.

We were ushered to beds, not the mats on the floor, for one and a half hours of Aromatherapy Massage with Herbal Balls(P 550).  The massage was so relaxing that hubby was already snoring halfway through the massage.  The scent of Lavender pervaded our cubicle and worked well to calm my senses.  It’s sleep-inducing properties obviously worked well on hubby. 😀    To say that the massage was relaxing is an understatement really.  After the massage, both hubby and I just wanted to lay there and go to dreamland.  Had it not been for our kids who’d certainly look for us when they wake up from sleep, we would have probably stayed there forever.

Thank you to the masseuse and staff of Nuat Thai Libis for making our date night a pleasurable experience. We’ll definitely be back for another relaxing and rejuvenating massage.
