0.000 HBDMy first time getting a massage
 <br> During our time at [Island Escape](https://peakd.com/hive-163772/@hiddenblade/a-luxury-paradise-in-phuket-island-escape-by-burasari) in Phuket, we availed of their massage services. They offer Thai massage and some others, but I read that Thai massage is quite hard/strong(?) so we just had the normal massage (I don't know what it's called :P). I'm always hesitant to go for massages cos I'm a bit sensitive to touch and so I will need a high level of comfort with the spa first before trying it out. This caused me to never had any massages in my life (at least those in spas) and this time since I was in Thailand and already trying a lot of new stuff, why not try one more. :D <br> <br> <div class="pull-left"> https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/hiddenblade/23w2ajnm39eQ4yZTsB3spmBnvpaNXv9gbjadjqkcoN7s8Rmp5Se6Z5SGoag3uh2GtPfey.jpg </div> <div class="pull-right">  </div> --- The overall process of booking is also really easy and convenient as we just had to go to reception, choose a schedule, and then a vehicle will take us to the spa (which is just inside the resort premises). <br> <br> <div class="pull-left"> https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/hiddenblade/23wMU534BrePzhFdF2Uq3Cg3E6uiZiMnAP4oTKYJqRx62nd5jjnQEPS5gpxsQTborkjB2.jpg </div> <div class="pull-right"> https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/hiddenblade/23xVAYptmt6PZn9MhRm93B7E2nsdgZsWhze9zcE9Zdtxk6LfU8GLfrTjLWaMFF92vFAqa.jpg </div> --- The spa looked so nice and comfy. I think this place is actually not their permanent place for their spa as this looked more like a room for guests, so I assume this is a temporary one til they build their own since a big part of resort is still under construction. It was okay regardless. :D <br> <br>  We filled out a form so they could provide the suitable service for us. We could also write which body part we're sensitive of and if we want to be gentle at that part which is really nice as I'm more sensitive in some areas than others. @Acidyo and I chose the moderate pressure. <br> <br>  After filling out, Acid went in first and changed to his bathrobe. There is only one masseuse and I prefer to be last since I'm still quite nervous lol so I just waited seated on the chair nearby. <br> <br>  <br> <br>  The massage is 60 minutes but I don't mind waiting. I was given this tea which tasted nice. I asked what it was called but I forgot it now. :P The taste is nutty and I really liked it. :D <br> <br>  This was the view outside. Really peaceful with the nature and the birds flying. This was also still under construction and I could only imagine how it would be like when it's finished. <br> <br>  <br> <br>  I was a bit jealous of their bathtub even though our room was literally next to the pool. XD Still having a hot bath would be really nice. :D <br> <br>  When it was my turn, I was a bit nervous cos I was just thinking what if I just laugh the whole time or I get some panic because I'm ticklish but the masseuse was really nice and understanding. I guess they're really used to people like me that's why she handled me well. :D It was relaxing although in some areas it could be painful but not much. She focused on my shoulder and lower back area which was requested. She used coconut oil which smelled nice. This resort has their shampoo, lotions, and body wash in coconut which also makes sense since the island is called Coconut island. :P The masseuse would also ask us from time to time how we're feeling or if the pressure is okay. <br> <br>  When we're done, I felt relieved as it turned out well. :D I can't also believe I just did it considering it could turn out bad when I'm touched in the wrong places but the feeling is so nice knowing you have done something new in your life. It lessened my lower back and neck pain and I felt "reset" for my body lol. Our bodies also smelled nice thanks to the coconut oil. :D The overall experience was great and I'm glad I had my first in this place. I'm thankful for the great masseuse who was really professional and understanding. :D
