This valentine's day Sid and I managed to escape to a spa - Aura, located in the heart of the city. We had signed up for an exotic (or should I say extravagant?) 'You and I' massage. After the customary refreshments we were ushered into a royal ruby red suite. There we indulged ourselves in a 'choco+strawberry+essential oils' massage executed in a traditional Balinese style.The massage full of robust strokes, rolling and kneading almost miraculously cured us of the severe back and leg aches haunting us (following some terrific time on a kinetic honda on the much pleasurable roads of Madras!). This was followed by a rose and milk bath in an imposing jacuzzi and I couldn't help but appreciate the majestic decor that added an unmistakable aura to the entire experience.
I am not sure if it was the soothing influence of the ambient music, the regale setup or the personal service of the therapists but both of us seemed to be in a romantic daze for the rest of the evening.A must-go for any one who is visiting Madras and is overwhelmed by the city's snarling traffic and sunny madness!
Been to Filanto and Aiwo Spas, never checked out Aura in the city.
Do they have I, Me and Myself Massage?
Lol! I am not sure about what they have for such self obsession ;-) But of course they have Swedish, Hawaiian, Thai styles, facials, body polishes and if I remember correctly even some Ayurvedic treatment!
You brought the menu catalog home, for future reference?
Anyway, thanks for the information :)
@Surya - Menu?! Well not really. I was advised by the branch manager against the Hawaiian massage because of its rigorousness! And my memory is rather strong...
Your iphone memory? Yeah, it is strong. I am going to call up that branch manager and fix up a Hawaiian massage for me.
The bin in picture looks artfully done up. Was the lid held in place and that rose petal straightened, before someone could disturb it?
*shudders*
*****ssssshhhhhhhuuuuuuudddddddeeeerssss***** (screaming yewwwwwwwwwwww in silent protest)
From a person who hates raw strawberries but loves strawberry ice creams, who hates chocolate ice creams, but devours tonnes of chocolates, some things are better left the way it is...
*sighs* to each his own...
