Couple massages are becoming increasingly famous around the world and are an experience that some spas are offering as a part of a combo. In the case of romantic couples, spas can even offer some other treats like a tub with rose petals, a bottle of champagne or a real fireplace to relax next to. In the case that the massage is for non-romantic couples like siblings, mother and daughter or just best friends, the massage can be the only treat and happen in unison in two distinct beds in the same room. Whichever is the case you are thinking about right now read on and find out everything you always wanted to know about couples massage.
The Couple Experience
Couples experience at a spa center can be either a full combo including several steps and a massage or just a massage session in a joint room. Both are great gifts, surprises and treats for the person that means the most to you. Let´s take a look at the variances.
The Couple Spa Day
Let´s start with what most spas offer as a whole experience. If you are involved in a romantic relationship with a significant other and want to have some extra bonding time, a spa is the perfect place to share some silent communion moments and solidify that special look into each other´s eyes that makes couples reach the next plateau in a relationship.
Everything, from a joint tub bath to taking each other´s hands at a massage session to enjoy the same sauna, the complete experience can be just what some couples need to find happiness. Some spas will even pop up a bottle at your arrival to make you feel more comfortable and get you in that celebration mood. Just be careful with how much alcohol you drink since massage therapy really improves circulation and you will be feeling funny way before you normally do.
Usually, it all starts at the sauna to get rid of toxins, then to a hot tub with some rose petals and finally to that amazing massage therapy session in a joint room. That schedule is guaranteed to make you feel love, relaxation and a stronger special bond with your couple.
Couple Massage Therapy
Whether it was you or your significant other the one buying each other´s spot over the massage bed, seeing the enjoyment face in each other is nothing short from amazing. To give a couple massage therapy as a present to the person you love and join him or her in the experience is to be able to see that look upon their faces or that eyes-closed smile that just makes the world a better place even if it´s just for a little while.
What will likely happen during a couple massage therapy session is that you will both be accommodated in the same room with some nice-smelling essences, some candles and relaxing music. Just lying there next to each other while receiving such a relaxing treatment, is a great way of bonding. Each of you can tell the therapist what you like; actually you can choose whichever kind of massage you like the best and have a different one from your partner.
If it was only the massage you booked, then you might expect to have a glass of champagne as a goodbye treat and off you go, back to real life with a huge smile upon your face and a rejuvenated bond with your partner in crime.
Benefits of a Couple Spa Day
Spa days are relaxing and good for your health, but that is just for one person, now we will talk about the benefits going beyond the ones you already know. Let´s go through the benefits of a joint spa day with your significant other.
Reconnection
Spa days help you disconnect from the world. In the case of couple spa days, they help you reconnect with each other. Once all your concerns about work, daily activities and any other thing you might have in your head melt away, that connection with your loved one will be back to where it was before modern life took a serious blow at it. The romanticism that comes back to the surface when all problems fade away is almost always just as you remembered it and still the reason that made you want to be together in the first place.
Affection
Serotonin, dopamine, and the all famous cuddle-hormone oxytocin are all released through a massage session. All these great inner “drugs” that feel like a gift from nature are enhanced with the touch and the sight of that significant other lying right next to you. With this combination of chemicals and the spa atmosphere, a couple massage is something really close to a love potion.
Bonding
The bonding that comes from trying new things being two is enhanced by the natural release of the chemicals in your body. Also, finding each other´s eyes and smiles in a moment of extreme joy is something that can bring couples closer. When some time has gone by the talks about it will come and you will both crack a laugh remembering how good it was.
Those are the reasons couples who experience a full day of spa and/or a massage therapy session often decide to go back. It is very usual to find couples coming back for consecutive anniversaries and each other birthdays.
