Several hours after, I feel something strange on my left hand and also on my right ribs. Something that not make me comfortable. What happen on my hand and body? These came to my mind. Oh no, my wife should not to know this. She will prefer to anger on me than to advice me. Uhhhh.

Well, I should go to my favorite spa and enjoy the massage. I will get better after. Yes, I went and have the treatment. For an hour spa treatment, I enjoyed it very much. I enjoy the touch, the massage oil, the aromatherapy and I enjoy that I am getting better, now.

Massage is the good healing method where the nerves refreshed and stimulated to work better. Muscles reloaded with new energy. Finally minds will get healthier.

Apparently, there are about 10.000 different aromas. In addition, as the massage activates the body's nerve endings and stimulates it's blood flow, the medicinal properties of essential oil's act on the internal organ and treat ailments. Although the oils only remain in the body for three hours before they are excreted, they have already triggered a healing process.
