Mother's Day - Things to do during your massage treatment | New Serenity Spa Scottsdale

This is our second blog in our (3) part series.  You may wish to also read 'Mother's Day - Before your massage therapy' and our follow-up article 'Mother's Day - Things to do after your massage treatment'

At New Serenity Spa we specialize in facial treatments and massage therapy.  We are located in Scottsdale, Arizona and we are the home of the highly renowned Serenity Facial and Serenity Massage. It is all about your experience.  We not only strive to provide you with the best possible service but we seek to educate out clients as well.

Our clients often ask if there is anything they can do 'during' their massage therapy that will help them get the most out of it. While you will certainly enjoy our treatment without doing much, here are a few tips you should consider:

• Breathing. Oxygen is a close second in important to water when it come to massage therapy. A times we starve ourselves of oxygen unnecessarily during a massage session. We are so focused on a certain pain, discomfort, muscle that we simply forget to breathe. When your massage therapist starts to work on a 'knot' in your muscle, don't hold your breath.  Instead, inhale and exhale normally. It is when you exhale that muscle release occurs and tension starts to dissipate. Avoid concentrating your attention on a tight muscle and focus on rhythmic breathing instead.  Allow your body to relax a little more with every breath.

• Relax. This brings us to the next step you can take to enjoy your session. You are here to relax, release tension and enjoy the moment.  This is your time.  Let yourself go and allow the therapist to move your body as needed.  Don't try to raise your legs, hands, head or any other body part.  Your massage therapist doesn't want your muscles to engage. He will do the work for you. Let yourself go.
• Talking.  Be mindful about how much you talk during your treatment. We are here to help you relax and we encourage our therapist to allow our clients to lead in this area.  If our client needs to vent and your therapist is comfortable with the conversation, feel free. We simply tell our clients to ask themselves what the reason for their visit is.  If your want to receive all the wonderful benefits that our Serenity Massage has to offer, don't distract the massage therapist or tense your mind with personal conversations.  You are here to relax and be pampered.
• Communicate. One exception to our 'No talking' advise is that you use some time during your therapy session to tell your therapist how much pressure you need. A “relaxation” treatment should never be uncomfortable. However, a therapeutic treatment may involve some pain and discomfort to achieve required results.  Be sure to communicate with your therapist any level of discomfort you may be experiencing.  In addition, we are here to make you feel good.  If the temperature needs adjustments, let your massage therapist know.  This is your time and your treatment.
• Fall sleep if you can. It is no unusual for our clients to fall sleep during our sessions.  We pride ourselves in providing a very relaxing atmosphere that let's people 'zone out'.  Soft track lighting, flute music, comfortable temperature and the magical hands of our massage therapists make many of our clients fall sleep.  During a quiet, relaxing massage is a great time to meditate, “zone out” or even fall asleep.Don’t think about your work, your grocery list or today’s “to do” list.  If you reach a state where you've lost time, or where you find yourself awake and yet dreaming, you did it right!  A relaxed mind leads to a relaxed body and a stressed mind leads to a tense body.

So next time you visit our massage therapist, keep this friend advise in mind. These often forgotten tips will help you get the most our of your session.

Scottsdale Massage Day Spa offers best massage experience | New Serenity Day Spa

At New Serenity Spa, we offer one of the best massage in Scottsdale/Phoenix.  We are committed to giving not only a great massage but great service as well. We are a day spa located in North Scottsdale catering to a very loyal clientele.  The reviews from our clients speak say it all.

We seek repeat clients who want a peaceful and consistent experience without the pressures that you often get from a Corporate massage mill.  We welcome travelers who want to experience something difference from your 'fast food' chain-type massage mill.

If you are budget conscious, we have a basic introductory massage for you. At times, we can compete in price with the Corporate Spas, however, our focus is not only on your massage but on your overall massage experience.

Here are the key advantages that you may find at Corporate massage mill:

Cost - This is what most people focus on.  The low prices of Corporate massage mills are definitely a draw, particularly when combined with convenience.

Convenience - It is hard to beat the large Corporate massage mills. They are everywhere and you can usually get in and out quickly.

That is where the advantages end. So what are the drawbacks and what does New Serenity Spa have to offer?

Low staff turnover - If you prefer to see that same massage therapist who gave you a one of a kind treatment last time, you will have an easier time when you visit New Serenity Spa.  At New Serenity Spa, our turnover is very low and you are almost always guaranteed to receive your massage from the same therapist on every visit.  We heard the horror stories of how massage therapists are treated at some of the Corporate places. We pride ourselves in treating our employees well so they stay with us longer.  Happy employees equal happy customers.

Service consistency - Franchises always try to provide a cookie-cutter massage. They use the same strategy as fast food restaurants.  Repeat the same quality service every time and sell as many as possible.  At New Serenity Spa, we know better.  Every massage is an individualized experience.  We customize your massage to meet your needs. You cannot standardize on how you offer a massage. Every client is different. Every client requires individualized treatment.

Better atmosphere - Our space is very serene.  We cater to a loyal clientele who wants to relax in a unique and well-decorated room, while listening to some relaxing music in a no pressure environment.  Our rooms are decorated with our photography and the walls have very unique designs.  Our owner and aesthetician, Stacy LeClair, is a well-respected professional photographer who has been featured in the local TV channels.  Her photography adorns our Spa. If this is not enough, we always try to get to know our clients and we will remember you when you come back.

No pressure memberships - We heard this over and over again 'they are always trying to sell me a membership'.  At New Serenity Spa, we believe our customers have options. Yes, we would like to see you purchase a membership, however, we don't pressure you into buying anything and from time to time we run specials to help you with your decisions. Our prices are not astronomical if you don't have one either. You came for a massage. you will not only get that but a great experience as well.

If you are a value oriented client, then a Corporate massage is probably your best answer. However, if you decide that good service and great client experience are also important parts of your treatment, you may want to give New Serenity Spa a chance.  If you are ready to try what great service combined with a great massage looks like, make sure you read our recent blog on how to get the best out of your massage or facial treatment.

We pride ourselves in providing our clients with great services and offering mini-escapes that emphasize the convenience of a quick escape and incorporate services like foot massage and scalp massage (usually extra cost at a corporate franchise). We offer one of the best massage overall experience in the Phoenix/Scottsdale area in a very serene and professional atmosphere.
