Create a sacred space for your in home massage session.

You’d be surprised how easy it is to turn a spare room or a corner of your living room into a spa. New clients always ask me. “I want to get a massage or spa service in my home. How much space do you need?" If your spare room is full of boxes stack them in a closet. Now that's done let’s start with the massage table. A massage table is about 6 feet long and 3 feet wide. More importantly we need walking room around the table so if you can allow for at least a couple of feet around the table, we’re in business. Is there a window in your spare room? If so, make sure you can block light out with a blind or drapes. If other family members are home, make sure they know you are going to get a massage so they don’t disturb you. If you are home alone, turn your home phone and mobile off. Select some relaxing music, candles and we'll do the rest.

Is there anything you do in preparation for a massage? If we'd love to know.

"Divine Intervention" from Serve the Goddess.

Spending the day being pampered at a spa is a fine thing indeed, but it's even more of an extravagance to be coddled in the comfort of your own home with a group of your closest friends. Serve the Goddess Mobile Spa Services strives to make the spa party experience an especially personalized and memorable one.

Helen and Allison arrived early to set up massage tables and the various accoutrements of relaxation. As the name implies, Serve the Goddess embraces the Greek deity theme. The spa offers a line of aromatherapy mists and oils with names like Aphrodite's Delight and Demeter's Retreat, and each attendee gets to choose a favorite scent to be incorporated into her treatments. We were each to receive a 30-minute full-body massage, plus our choice of a rejuvenating mini facial or a 30-minute foot reflexology treatment. But before the hands-on pampering began, Helen led us in a brief meditation. This helped us to achieve a state of calm and refocus our energy on the physical and spiritual rejuvenation to come.

The next couple of hours were all about indulgence. After 30 minutes of blissful Swedish bodywork, Helen went straight into the facial, using hot towels and all-natural concoctions to cleanse and moisturize the skin. Because this was a mini facial, there were no extractions to suffer through, so the treatment only deepened the sense of relaxation and well being fostered by the massage.
