Different SPA massages are very expensive, but really makes you feel so much better. I have never had enough money to have a complete course of the massages, usually it is more than ten times and aproximate cost of it is around $1000. So I just simply go there from time to time to relax and have some positive feeling. Do you like something like that? Do you treat your body with different SPA massages? Don't you think that it is a waste of money?

I love getting massages. Yes they are expensive but so worth it.LOL I got my first massage when I was visiting my sister in florida. And that was a few years back. Back then it was around two hundred but well worth it. No I dont think its a waste of money.

It really depends where you go.when I was a child I used to go every week to massage, becuase I had a problems with my back and doctor give me precription for massages.I really enjoyed it.It was great.But about one year ago we went to a spa with my brother, his girlfriend and my man and get some massage.But for me it wasn't massage it was like somebody beat me.It really hurt and I though I would feel relaxed avter it, but didn't.It was really bad experience.But I think it was only accident I didn't like it. MAssage are not taht expensive in coutry I am from, I don't know about here in USA.I wasn't here for one yet.Also I think if it would be very expensive it would be waste of money for me probably.I would ask my partner to make me one.I think it can be same good as a spa.you make your own atmosphere, music and choose the esentals or lotion.

I can agree with you that your partner can make even better massage than in the SPA center.

Sense I've never had a SPA Massages before, I wouldn't know if it was a waste or not.. However $1000.00 is alot of money though.. I think a normal massage would be more cheaper and not to mention give the same results, Though I might be wrong though sense I've really had one of those either...

You should have at least one massage one day, you will really love it I am sure, and the money spent on massage won't be wasted.

I LOVE getting professional massages. Sometimes I swear I really need them. But they are expensive, so since we are trying to save money, I don't go as often anymore. I use a trip to the spa as a reward for when I lose weight. 5 more pounds to go and I get another trip to the spa! it has been so long since I have had a massage that I will probably go all out with a massage and a facial too!

Actually you have a good motivation for losing weight. It is great! I need to think about something like that for myself.

I love going for massages. I typically get a deep tissue massage, and my massuese will also use hot rocks. I get really bad neck and back pain, and getting a message on a regular basis really helps. It takes the tension out of my muscles, and I get back my full range of motion. I feel so relaxed and healthy afterwards.

I had a massage one time from a massage and I hated it! I didn't like having a stranger touch my body all over while I lay there naked under a sheet. It was no where near $1000! I would never pay that. It was about $75 and I wouldn't do it again. I'll stick with my husbands free massages.

I am so lucky to have a future granddaughter-in-law who is an esthetician... she has completed all her schooling and is licensed to do any spa treatment. My personal favorite is the foot massage, I seem to be able to walk a little better after she does this for me. And since I'm 'The Gramma', I don't get charged! Its heavenly!

I work at a college where massage therapy is offered as a degree. So we get lots of massages for just $5 for one hour. I get a weekly massage, which I really need because I have lots of muscle aches and pains. I feel great for a few hours, but then it seems to wear off. I must tense up quickly after all that relaxation. Maybe I am just a stressed out person, but I doubt it - I try to be pretty chilled. Good question - I always get the allover swedish massage and have them spend extra time around the shoulders and shoulderblades.
