Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.....zzzzzzzzzzzz...........
I Love Ummelina! I had a facial, a full body massage and a sea salt bath. It was wonderful. There are no magazines in the between services waiting area. If you can't live without mag's, well, your loss. Personally, I really liked that there were no magizines. It added to the "full escape" from reality feeling. If you must read there are books on herbalism. It seems that most people use the time to sit quietly, sip filtered water or herbal tea, and gaze meditatively at the tree tops. It seems that they start everyone with a aroma therapy foot bath while in the between services waiting area which is nice. I started my scheduled services with a shower which was wonderful. There was a large shower head that rained down from above and rows of jets that sprayed from the sides as well as a detatchable shower head that you can move however you'd like. After that I had a sea salt bath that I could have really lived without. Except for the massaging jets and colored lights I could have had a pretty similar experience in my own tub at home for a lot less money. After the tub I had a full body massage with Joy. Joy was very good and I actually became so relaxed that I spent most of my massage in that half asleep half awake place. The aroma therepy did get pretty intense during the massage which caused my nose to get stuffy so I was greatful when my facial started with a lot of steam directed to my face. My facialist was Toni. Toni was my favorite. She did a great job and I will definitely ask for her next time. As part of my facial I also got a hand and foot treatment which involved a hand and foot massage, putting some sort of moisturizer on my hands and feet, wrapping them in warm towels and then putting them inslde thermal heated mittens and booties. I am not proud of this but my feet were in AWFUL condition before this treatment. I mean really really bad. They looked great afterwards! The only thing that I would have passed up was the hot stone treatment part of the facial. It didn't really do much for me. Over all it was a wonderful experience and I can't wait to go back! Afterwards my boyfriend said that I looked as rested and peaceful as he's ever seen me, and we've been together 3 years!
