The Spa Experience

Spa services are so cheap in Malaysia that even the natives get massages at least twice a month. I decided to do the same and indulge myself in my hotel’s 2 ½ hour full-body spa package. Allow me to recount my spa experience… First, I received a full-body massage/scrub that incorporated lemon and ginger extract. Next, I was placed in a sauna for 15 minutes to exfoliate the dead skin cells and then I was treated to a one hour full-body Balinese massage with essential oils. Then, I had a mask applied to my skin, which was later rinsed off in a luxurious bubble bath that offered views of the KL skyline. To top off my spa experience, my masseuse gave me a sweet cinnamon-ginger tea and a holistic herbal vitamin to cleanse my body. Oh, did I mention that my skin was as soft as a baby’s bum too? I now understand why the rich and famous go spaing regularly – it’s FABULOUS!!!
