A Valentine’s treat doesn’t always have to be something you give to someone else.
As moms, we are often torn by the fantasies of taking care of others while others take care of us. A utopia of pleasure… OK, then reality sets in and that is OK. The key is to take charge of your needs and make it happen for yourself.
One of my favorite Valentine’s treats, rewards, or self-care rituals is an amazing massage. After working in the spa industry for way too long to mention, I am definitely a massage snob. I need to leave that table with the face cradle embedded in my face and my body feeling like amazing goo. I know, this sounds peculiar, but when you receive just the right treatment, the feeling your body gives you is pretty indescribable, let alone the lingering bliss that can last for days if not weeks after.
This Valentine’s, I would like to share with you my treat of choice… Spa Solara and Lara Figueredo. Located at 1394 Coral Way just by The Roads, this quaint spa offers an array of treatments and specialties and is headed up by Lara, a master of her trade.
Lara has been a massage therapist and Reiki master for over 20 years.
She offers a menu of services from deep tissue, aromatherapy, muscle manipulation, chakra balancing, and Shamanic treatments. But my favorite is to let her decide what I need. She loves to read the body and create just the right game plan for what’s going on internally. It’s hard to describe, but she enjoys finding your issues and solving the problems, which makes her therapies that much better and the residual effects last that much longer… bliss!
No matter which treatment she gives you, luxury and pampering are her forte. She sets up her table with this incredible BioMat. Don’t let the name throw you off, this is a mat of amethyst crystals, combined with infrared and negative ions, which amp up the entire relaxation process of the body – here’s where that amazing feeling of goo comes in, ahhhhhhh!!!
So… Attention mamas, take charge, do something for YOU, a little self-care can go a long way.
Call Lara at 786-247-5272 and tell her I sent you. She is going to add in a few extra treats just for YOU because you deserve it!
With love and light,
Adita
