Embrace the alternative
Don’t be afraid of the alternative. Sometimes it offers you more good than the mainstream. Spa services like reflexology and Reiki are relatively new to the scene, but clients have embraced them full force. Reflexology subscribes to the belief that the body contains an energy field, and by massaging, squeezing or pushing on parts of the feet, hands and ears, you can unblock your Qi or life force and promote healing.
While many in the medical field may call this method “bunk,” many customers see (and feel) the benefit, hence the rush to add reflexology to the menu of spa services.
 In Reiki massage, the practitioner doesn’t massage or tweak muscles, but lays their hands on you to guide our unseen life force energy or Qi to increase the flow to promote health and restrict sickness. Reiki customers describe the practice as a spiritual experience, with the result often being a wonderful glowing radiance of peace, security and well-being.
Make a day of it
While clearing an hour from your schedule for your regular spa “maintenance” should be done on a consistent level, there is a lot to be said for teaming up, whether surprising your partner with a “couples” session or hosting a group of friends as a special event or treat. Many Toronto-area spas offer couples’ treatments, with side-by-side massage tables in their own private relaxation area. Serve a little bubbly and watch the romance levels rise.
