s.p.a.: sanitas per aquam..

Ever had a hot stone massage or better yet seaweed mud wrapped all over your body, head to toe?

How about a facial so euphoric, it could bring you to orgasmic sounds leaving you to forget that it is not your man (or woman) rubbing on your face, but simply a masseuse?

What about a toe curling pedicure?

-sigh-

I need to go back to
D'mai Urban Spa in Park Slope, Brooklyn. It's the best spa I've been to. I've become a regular there. Not to mention, it's a hop, skip and a jump away from my apartment.

Booking an appointment in 5, 4, 3, 2...

Yes I have.
There was a time when me and a few of my co-workers would take the day off from work to go different places and try different things. Whether it be going to an authentic ethiopian restaurant, having a true Italian experience down in little Italy or having one of the best Spa treatments ever. At this very moment I'm having flashbacks.
We went to a nice, clean, calming spot in Downtown Manhattan. If I recall it was $30 to $40 for an hour.
Oh my goodness it was the best.
We undressed completely, were handed a towel, and lead into a room with dim lighting, a wonderful aroma and soothing sounds from the rain forest echoing through the air. That masseuse went to work on my body, literally from head to toe. A nice hot cloth over my face, aromatic oils being rubbed on my body and a deep deep massage on my entire body was what I needed.
