My favorite BlueWater Treatment

i am so lucky to have been chosen as one of the bloggers who have been given an experience with the Spa Theater of BlueWater Day Spa. the foot massage while you are watching a movie is one of a kind. i totally recommend it to everyone who want to take a special relaxation after a tedious time at work. if you're going to try it out, you will not be wasting any money for the service is worth it. not only you got a foot massage, you also saw your favorite movie whatever it may be. a great investment for wellness. of course we know that there's pressure points on our feet that connects to the internal organs and also if these pressure points are treated well, it also promotes good blood circulation. so a little Php300 to Php550 that wouldn't be so bad right?

i know most people also want to experience this that's why i am going to share MORE about francis' business venture. i want to bring the people who are very close to me to experience the same thing. maybe for someone's birthday, after a long travel or even if we just want it.

if you live within QC, there's a BlueWater Day Spa in Capitol Hill which gives you the same very relaxing service. also, the area is very welcoming if you want to get out of the busy metro. take a look at this:


so if you want to get with one-of-a-kind spa experience, try BlueWater Day Spa.

as they've said, IT'S NOT JUST A SPA, IT'S BLUEWATER DAY SPA.

BlueWater Day Spa Contest Winners - Experience

first, my words of gratitude to Francis Simisim for picking my blog at the contest featured in his blog. i really got excited when i found out that my blog was picked for that experience. last monday when i got the email, i already plurked it and eventually i knew who the people am i going to see on the event, chris, jonel, ada, azrael are some of the people that i knew.

when i arrived at the venue, i saw chris waiting outside waiting for a companion to be with upon getting in the spa. the spa is very spacious and very inviting with the receptionists not ignoring our presence. we were asked to fill up some form for their database. i thought there was going to be a raffle for we are asked to submit our email addresses on little pieces of paper. (knock knock Francis! hehe)

Francis is already standing by the foot spa entrance waiting for the guests to come. he's tall and of course very welcoming. you're the man, Francis, for putting up a business venture like this and this is BIG TIME!

then i met joy, we had conversations about the blogging thing and everything and she too was very excited about the treat that BlueWater Day Spa had for us that night. the food is already served and we really got to see firsthand the huge lazy boy chairs, the water-like illusion carpet and the theater-like foot massage room which is uniquely intended for your social gatherings. good thing that we arrived early, we are able to take some shots of the place, get the best seats and take the first bites of the food served. very healthy and light fruit trimmings and sandwiches with bottomless orange juice or nestea on the side. first step to heaven.

then the other bloggers arrived. since this is an exclusive event, the spa theater only accommodates 28 people for the chairs. too bad that not all 28 are able to come but at least we enjoyed the whole event. we were introduced to the Spa Theater and i observed the smile on the people's faces get upto the back of their necks. lol

first, Francis took us on a tour inside the whole spa area. but prior too that, i needed to take a pee for i've been drinking juice ever since i started to eat. and i was in awe of seeing a very clean and neatly organized men's locker room. very minimal design and very comforting.

we were almost like in a Star Trek ala Star Wars hallway with the BlueWater Spa's hallway. as Francis have said, even at the hallway you will already feel relaxed. then we entered the different rooms and most of us are ready to lie on the beds and wait for the therapists to come and give us the treatment we've been waiting for.

clockwise from top left: the Spa Theater, the Men's Room,
the Sauna Room, Private Group Room, Diamond Room for couples

when we returned to the theater, not long enough that the therapists entered with a grandiose entrance as if we are expecting a production number from them. then the lights were turned off and Kung Fu Panda started to play while the therapists did their work on our feet. words are not enough to describe the feeling for i almost felt asleep with the very relaxing treatment.

the review: 5 stars, A+, GUJAB, love it!

before i forget, the access to the BlueWater Spa is very easy. here's how.

so if you are planning to have your relatives and friends or anyone you want to be with and enjoy the perks i had, you can check their website at http://www.BlueWaterDaySpa.com or check the price list here.

Total Relaxation (Spa and Movies: WHY NOT diba?)

with a lot of you've been doing, how can you still manage to go take a rest? people would say, RELAX, SEE A MOVIE. but isn't it also stressful going to the movie houses and you won't even be able to watch the movie as you wanted because of noises in the room? like when i watch Harry Potter and kids are making a lot of noises and keep asking their guardians why is it and why is that? i would say to myself, just watch the movie, you brats! now tell me, did i get a relaxing moment? no. and with all the work at the office, even while just sitting down is hard on the back. sometimes you get your eyes tired and your shoulders get pains. some stretches won't do if you got tons of load. in those times, i just wish that someone could give me a back rub or a little massage when i want to get the pain off.

but i want to get both perks at the same time. movies and back rubs combined! you think that's impossible? no, it exists! really! how? this is the new buzz. i came across this blog (http://techfilipino.com) about the new BlueWater Day Spa located in Ortigas and found out that they have developed a Spa Theater! a theater in a spa may have been off the track but the owners of this spa have made it possible for us. imagine, you are getting your muscles relaxed and your eyes satisfied with your favorite movie!

BlueWater Day Spa's Spa Theater has a 28-people capacity so you can have 27 of your friends and loved ones in one great party. i would like to have a game on this, i would ask 27 people who say they are "virgins" to touches, massage touch if i should specify on that. the ones with the funny bones or the komikeros and komikeras and we'll see who won't stand on a stroke on the foot, a little pressure within the waist area. hahaha i don't know if there's still people like that who are malakas ang kiliti. and then the funniest movie will be shown here:

what do you think? it's nice, right? but wouldn't you think that it's nice to have a movie party if you have Dolby Surround Sound 7.1 reception, a projection of about 160 inch-5 feet wide, while sitting on a Lazy Boy couch. whoa! ang sarap!

back on the game, everyone should give in to the pot money and stay focused and relaxed without laughing at a massage pressure. at mahahawa na ang lahat once may isang taong kakaiba ang hagikgik. the winner gets the pot money! of course, everybody will benefit from it too. katuwaan lang na walang tatawa sa masahe. (i think i'll lose this game in the middle. hehe)

what if, a date auction! hahaha.. never been to those kinds of events but i think it's fun. and then the bids will be used for charity para may good cause. a bundle of searchees will be paraded and the searcher with the highest bid will get the seachee for a date. sa private room pa ng spa. hahaha... may pumatol kaya sa gimik na to?

oh well, in case you want to know more about this new spa that people have been buzzing about, check out their website. and hope your imagination will overflow with ideas on how to spend your quality time there.
