Have you tried Hot seashell massage therapy?

I wanted to introduce our newest treatment: hot seashell massage therapy. See below for more info.
What is it?

Hot seashell massage is a modality alternately attributed to Hawaii and the South Pacific Islands, and it utilizes heated seashells to expedite muscle relaxation.

How does it work?

Seashell massage employs smoothed shells filled with cement or organic materials. The sealed and resin-coated shells vary in size and shape. Larger, fanned shells cover surfaces like the back; smaller, conical shells fit between the toes, or into small "knots" of tension.

During a seashell massage, the therapist may opt to use only shells or alternate shells with her hands. They are heated in a water bath first and once the temperature is comfortable for the client, they are quickly dried and applied to the body. Shells can create familiar, sweeping strokes, or simply rest on a tense area.

What are the benefits?

In addition to warming muscles, the seashells have mild, exfoliating capabilities, and often complement scrubs or mud wraps. The therapist might add aromatherapy oils, lotions, or creams to enhance the treatment.

Proponents of seashell massage attest to the shells' positive vibrations as an added healing component. Many seashell massage therapists consider seashells energetically uplifting.

Give a special gift of spa!

Give of yourself.

What you give truly comes back ten-fold. And happiness is a state of mind. Feeling happy makes you feel young, and it is the small acts of kindness and caring that you show to others that really makes the difference in your happiness levels.

The free and most simple way to do this is to show your smile! This is a special gift and not only will this cheer you up, but the most important thing is that you will have cheered others up!

Also, if you make every effort to have a positive attitude, this will rub off on those you meet. Once this happens, there is no stopping the spread of positive feelings to those they meet! And performing small acts of kindness is another way to make all the difference in someone's day.

We suggest giving a Serve the Goddess gift certificate https://servethegoddess.boomtime.com/lgift to someone who makes a difference in your life. Especially someone who wouldn't expect it, because it feels so good to put a smile on someone else's face. This will place you further along on the road to staying young and being happy. By giving of yourself, you will receive so much in return.

Reduce Stress With Massage And Stay Young.

Too much stress has an almost unbelievable way of quickly aging people. Completely ridding our lives of stress is impossible. But fortunately we can adopt simple techniques for better coping with life's problems.

The first step to reducing stress is to reduce the physical chaos around you. This can be clutter in many forms: your car, home, and office. This helps you get organized and clean up your surroundings.

Another thing to keep in mind is to avoid setting unachievable goals. Many people strive to be the best. However, we all have limitations. Accept limitations and avoid undue stress.

Also, you can learn relaxation techniques to turn to when you are at your wit's end. This can promote peace, rest, and sleep. Finding it difficult to relax? Check out our menu of massage services, you can select the one that's right for your needs, or customize a spa package based on your budget.

July 4th relax and spend time with your family.

Happy July 2nd to you! I am so relieved to say goodbye to June gloom and hello to July.
How are your plans shaping up for the long weekend? July 4th makes a great outdoor holiday ideal for barbecuing with family and friends and we get 3 whole days! As you will be outdoors this weekend make sure you protect your skin with the correct SPF. Our featured article below explains why.

I plan to stay home and spend some quality time with my finance this long weekend. Our August wedding is fast approaching and we still have some preparation to do, so doing nothing this holiday feel so good. We did do our cake tasting yesterday in Torrance so that's one more thing to cross off the list.
Want to know which cake we picked? We went for the chocolate with chocolate pudding filling. Yummy!

If you know a Bride to be let her know about our bridal spa packages!

With all the endless preparation that goes into a wedding it's rewarding to know there's a mobile spa service that delivers relaxation to your home or hotel location.


Wondering how to relax and spend time with friends and family this weekend?
A client asked me this question the other day. "How can I spend quality time with my family without giving up my spa day? I don't want to give up my special relaxation time but I want to see my family too". I asked her if she'd ever considered bringing in our chair massage service to her gathering.


Our chair massage works right in with your family gathering. You and your family members take turns to receive a 15- 30 minute neck and shoulder massage. This short massage will not interfere with the activities and it is extremely beneficial for relaxing tight shoulders, releasing tension in the lower back and neck.

Another reason chair massage works at gatherings is you and your family do not have to disrobe. We do the massage over your clothes. If you have any family members or friends embarrassed about removing their clothes, as in table massage, introduce them to our chair massage.

Check out our video.

Have a great weekend and squeeze some massage or spa time into your weekend -you can do it all.

How was your Father's Day? I hope it was a special day for dad and that you relaxed and enjoyed it too.

We had a busy Father's Day weekend pampering dads, father in-laws and husbands!
I know you are comfortable receiving massage and spa services but there are some men who don't feel comfortable. That's why our in home spa service is a hit with the guys too! He can relax and rejuvenate in familiar surroundings.
If your guy is still hesitant, start him out with a hour long foot massage and scalp massage where he doesn't have to disrobe. Trust me, once he starts to unwind he'll get the hang of it and be joining you for treatments.

Now summer is in full swing, you are most likely preparing for your family vacation. With heightened airport security and gas price hikes, it can be more rewarding to stay home and enjoy a stay-cation. There are so many great things to see and do around Los Angeles, after all.

This was the thought of a new client who has just arranged for me and my team of 6 to provide spa treatments at his home for his big annual family reunion. He usually rents a house, three hours drive away but this year he decided to stay home and invite his family members to his home for a spa day! Their family consists of 3 little girls, 4 teens and 12 adults. We discussed a menu of spa services for everyone.
The little girls will receive chocolate or strawberry facials, mini manicures and pedicures. The teens will enjoy neck and shoulder massages, a reward for studying, deep cleansing facials and foot massages. The adults will relish full body massages, foot massages,manicures, pedicures and facials! I can't wait to see the faces of the little ones and hear the oohs and ahhhhs from the other family members as the tension melts away. What a great way to relax, bond and enjoy each others company.

Here's another stay-cation idea. If the kids are at camp for a couple of weeks, take advantage and create some quality time for you and your loved one and enjoy side by side massages. We bring fresh linens, music, candles and set up our massage tables on your deck, by your pool, in your living room or your bedroom. Just imagine, a whole day or evening to wind down and relax with no interruptions. Bliss. Just the two of you!

Let's not forget the graduates out there! Say well done and gift him or her with a relaxing spa treatment.
Make the time for yourself in a meaningful way. This balance of giving and receiving is essential to keeping your energy, mood and motivation at a consistently high level.

"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.
