Fun Date Ideas: Couples Massage
There are so many fun date ideas out there today. If you can’t think of anything on your own all you have to do is type in date ideas online and you will get pages and pages of fun and interestig date ideas for you and your significant other to try out. Depending on what type of date ideas you are looking for you can find things for a group of your closest friends or other couple to do as well. The date ideas you find will range from romantic date ideas to adventurous and off the wall date ideas. The type of date ideas you are looking for is totally up to you.
One of the more popular date ideas out there right now is the couples massage. Couples massage is one of the hottest services at the spa right now. Two people are massaged in the same room, at the same time, by two different therapists.
It can be a husband and wife, girlfriend and boyfriend, same-sex partners, or even moms and daughters sometimes or best friends are going for couple massage. Couples massage is a massage that takes place in a couples suite. At the very least this is a room large enough for two massage tables.
Some spas, especially big resort and hotel spas have elaborate amenities for couples with fireplaces, pedicure chairs, steam showers and lounging beds where you can relax together after your treatments. Some romantic spas, like Alvadora Spa at The Royal Palms in Phoenix, have three different couple’s suites to accommodate the demand of couples massages being asked for. Not every spa, especially smaller day spas , will offer couples massage. So it is important to research this when you are looking at your date ideas to make sure you go to a place that offers this service before you try to book it.
Couples massage is a great way to introduce a partner who has never gotten a massage before in a way that makes them feel more comfortable the first time. Some men are apprehensive about getting a massage because of the nudity involved, and to have their wife or girlfriend there is reassuring. Men usually discover that therapeutic touch is very relaxing and restorative. Once they experience a couples massage, they are more willing to book a massage on their own. As for couples massage etiquette, it's fine to talk to each other through the massage if you want, or be quiet the whole time. It's really up to you.
The price of couples massage depends on the spa where you get it and is usually double the price of an individual massage. It is at least double the cost of a regular massage. It will start at $200+ at a day spa and can go much higher if you are getting the use of special indoor/outdoor facilities at resort and hotel spas. Tipping at the spa is extra. While it can be one of the more expensive date ideas the overall effect of the couples massage is really worth the extra money. You will both walk away with an overall relaxed and rejuvenated feeling.
