They say everything’s better in twos (or maybe I’ve just heard that my entire life because I’m a twin!), but when it comes to a couples massage, there’s no doubt—this massage for two offers double the benefits and double the relaxation. So what is a couples massage? OK, so technically we all know what it is: a side-by-side massage designed to be shared with a significant other or BFF where you can enjoy some bonding time. But we discovered it’s actually so much more than that.
Benefits of a couples massage
“It is always great to give the gift of massage to a loved one, but we often forget to take care of ourselves as well,” says spa director Leah Strohecker. We agree and think, what better way to do so than with a couples massage?
Receiving a massage together in the same room allows two people to completely relax and release personal or mutual stresses, Strohecker says. “The relaxing spa setting opens an avenue for couples to find comfort and a safe haven to unwind, sense the valuable presence of one another, and enjoy renewal together.” (Not to mention the additional benefits of a massage, such as prevention of injuries and more.)
