Citronnelle Spa and Cafe

*Claps* with big smile plus a HOOOORAY! written on callout balloon for no classes on Monday and Tuesday. In this case, I was able to meet my blogger friends and treat ourselves for once. Lol. Around 11 am, we went to Citronnelle. Okay, so to have an idea about it. Let me introduce it to you. It is located at Unit A, 2nd floor, Essel Commercial Complex, Telabastagan, Ph. Just this January 28, 2012, it was under the new management of an OFW, Mr. Louie Miranda but now it is his mother who manage it. It is open from 11am until 12 midnight. It has a WiFi connection. They offer different kinds of service and because they value customers so much, they have tons of Promos and GC to give away. Here's the list:

Here's an inside peek. As you enter, you'll smell the aromatheraphy scent that fills the air. There is an  instrumental music which is very soothing to hear and relieves you from stress or tension thus this creates a relaxing environment. I have nothing to go against its interior design. It is all good the way it is. I love its being classy.

We went first to the "Spa reception". The light is dim. Perfect for the place. There are rooms which vary for the service you avail. There are for single and couple bed in a room.

 It was my first time to try Body scrub and I was like WOW with my skin after I took a shower. I felt smooth, radiant and glowing because the dead cells were already exfoliate and revitalize to a moisture skin. This only cost me 275 Php. Right after, was the Swedish body massage that cost only 200 Php. The masseur have done a little Effleurage and more on Petrissage and before moving to next body part, she used Tapotement method.

Here's the way to the Dining area and balcony. From Spa, they added Cafe which preferably a good idea because it is favorable to the customers. Usually, people after spa look and move to some other places to hangout but not anymore. This is unusual right? Spa and Cafe in one. I love it! They also offer wines, coffee and a menu where you can choose from.

 After we ate Brunch. We had some time to be with the staff. All I can say to them is that they were all AMAZING. True! I believe that a happy employees are equal to happy customers. They have proven it. They were multitasking, friendly, easy to approach and energetic. They made us feel at home and at ease. They're always positive and smiling.

Overall experience is two thumbs up! Compared to other spa I've experienced, this one gives me the satisfaction and delight that a customer wants. I feel like coming back again and again. Uggh! I'm so excited to do so. I now recommend this spa to everyone. Go try it and you'll never regret it! It's worth the price for their quality services.

Love yourself

Why do I need Self-care? Isn't that selfish? If your asking that, consider Jesus' words in Matthew 19:19, "You shall love your neighbor as you love yourself." Most of us think that being selfish is bad. Actually it is important to our health. Let me share you something.
The thumb is you. Your index finger represents your parents. Middle finger for your mate. Ring finger for your children and lastly the little finger is for your job. You have the responsibilities to love and take care of these plus your friends right? But what if one day you exhausted or burnt out? Try using your hand without using your thumb. You'll found out that your hand is useless. No matter how hard you work, the hand falters. See? How will you able to give love if you yourself don't love yourself. Our body is the temple of the Holy Spirit therefore we should take care of it. Here are some ways that will help you manage that:

Eat healthy foods regularly. Such as fruits and vegetables. Poor diet can make you vulnerable to stress.
Get enough sleep. This enables your body to grow and heal. Lack of sleep can make you less productive, you'll not be able to handle stress and function well. Here are some ways on better sleep strategies.
Drink plenty of water. This will help you hydrate your skin and your body. It also eradicate toxins out of our body and helps on concentration.
Keep yourself clean. Dead skin cells are fine dining for the body bugs we host everyday. We wash because the bugs become toxic if unwashed which leads to other fungus.
Exercise regularly. Allocate time frame for this. It helps strengthen our physically and mentally being plus helps your body release endorphins, which increase your feelings of overall.
Have fun at least once a week. Everybody deserves to be happy. Don't stress out too much.
Have a good attitude. Always be positive.Test your self whether you are optimist or pessimist by taking this quiz. Discipline yourself as well. You know what is right from wrong and by doing this you know that these are the things that should be done.

"Beloved, I pray that all may go well with you and that you may be in good health, as it goes well with your soul." 3 John 1:2
