So after going to the spa last weekend (Christmas gift from the boyfriend), and facing surprise and awe by the staff because I had never been to a spa before (I'm in my mid-twenties...is that really so bad?) I decided to include the benefits of massage therapy that this spa lists in their pamphlet. FYI: massages are indeed awesome! I'm hooked! If only they weren't so expensive!

2.) Helps speed healing
3.) Relaxes and refreshes
4.) Improves blood circulation
5.) Relieves fatigue
