Hey! You are the resident bathing beauty! LOL! I think we need to get together and schedule a bunch of massages.

Oh I can't wait to have another one. I've had several and loved each and every one of them. My birthday is in March - I think I'm asking for a gift certificate. Thanks for the gift idea.

It's a great way to indulge with no calories involved!

Barb,  I'm so glad you garnered the courage to go and were able to leave with more confidence!  Sounds fabulous!  With all you've been going through, having that GC was perfect timing, wasn't it?  I think you were meant to wait to use it!  (Kudos to scotch!  lol)

I've been meaning to share that I have been mixing my own oils to help with (and prevent) skin issues and have been getting a massage here at home once or twice a week.  Even though hubby does a good job, it's not quite like having one done by a professional!  I've been really wanting to schedule one but, like you, am having a hard time with the confidence issue myself.  Love the strapless bra idea.  That would help a lot!  I've been thinking that I *may* schedule a facial for my first trip to the local spa I've been considering and hope that helps boost my bravery to schedule a massage!

Hi Shauna,

Sometimes you can ask them to do a head, neck and shoulders massage too. It's not as 'scary' as the whole body version and feels just wonderful!
