Me-time at Nuat Thai

When I started pursuing my graduate studies, my weekends changed dramatically. It worked well for me because apart from fulfilling my academic tasks and duties, I also get to spend quality time with myself, which rarely happens given the amount of workload that I have.

After my graduate school classes, I make it a point to drop by the mall to grab a quick bite or just check out what the stores have to offer. Once while I was waiting for a ride home, I noticed a spa that offers affordable massage services right across SM Tarlac. Of course, Nuat Thai is not entirely new to me. A friend once shared in her Facebook page the amazing experience that she had in one of their branches in Manila. I never knew that Nuat Thai has also invaded Tarlac!

So when I finally found the time, I didn't think twice in trying out their services. The first thing I noticed, though, was the space. The receiving area was too small. I wonder how they fit in clients during their peak hours in such a tiny space. Worth noticing are the art pieces that adorn the area. True to its name, it is distinctly Thai-inspired. Their services include: Thai Body Massage, Thai Foot Massage, Hot Oil Massage, Swedish Massage and Aromatherapy, which are all reasonably priced. Before the massage proper, the masseuse assigned to me led me to an area where she washed my feet with lukewarm water. On the corner is a locker where I placed all my belongings for safekeeping.

The lighting inside the spa was enough to put one to sleep. The soothing piped-in music also does the trick.

On my first visit, I chose the Hot Oil Massage which lasted for a little more than an hour. I loved the experience! I would have requested for a second round, if only it was allowed. I felt rejuvenated! The effect of a good massage on me is instant. Every sore limb in my body was suddenly gone. I felt lighter, younger and healthier! Since then, I have become one of their frequent clients.

A good massage is truly the best stress-reliever!

PROS:
1. Satisfaction guaranteed
2. Friendly and accommodating staff
3. Reasonable price
4. Well-kept cubicles and restroom

CONS:
1. Tip hinting by the masseuse (stands by the door before the client leaves)
2. Noisy clients during the massage session
3. Claustrophobic space
