Not only did I feel the tension leave my body, it stayed that way for the duration of our trip. Because I ask for therapists to dig deeper on those spots, I often hurt pretty badly the next day and just chalk it up to being part of the price my body has to pay.

She skillfully worked on those areas while still allowing me to relax. While I mentioned my “problem spots” to Darlene before we began, I didn’t have to coach her step by step of where to go and how to help once she got there.While I typically choose deep tissue massages, some sunburn prevented me from doing so on this visit (another tip – get your massage on your first day of vacation so you can fully relax and don’t have to worry about tender skin). As a former tennis pro, I have knots in my shoulders and lower back that I don’t think I’ll ever fully work out. What I couldn’t have known on my first visit was what an angel my therapist, Darlene, would turn out to be. The SiSpa Therapist I’d Travel Cross-Country For I crafted my own special mixture of deep, stone and aroma therapies. The Ocean Treasures massage comes in a 50 and 80-minute option and allows you to create a custom blend of techniques. This is exactly why I chose the Ocean Treasures massage. Therapeutic treatments can be enhanced with aromatherapy, warm stone, hand/foot ritual, scalp treatment, and scrub options. Resort Spas, SiSpa has 8,500 square feet of world-class wellness and pampering inspired by the natural beauty and healing powers of the ocean. Named one of Condé Nast Traveler’s Top 100 U.S. Why I Chose the SiSpa: The Ocean Treasures Massage After receiving one of the SiSpa signature services, I can say without reservation that I’d return to visit Darlene, even if I wasn’t staying at the resort.

People often want to splurge on a massage or manicure while on vacation and will opt for the closest option, which means the service doesn’t always need to be the best. If I’m going to be totally candid, I have the same reservations about resort spas as I do about resort restaurants.
