Massage for one? This spa in Pasay is perfect for solo dates

It’s just the start of the week, but if you need a well-deserved massage session sometime soon, here’s one for you.

Located at the Sheraton Manila Hotel, Shine Spa is a luxurious wellness haven for guests looking for a rejuvenating massage session, especially for those experiencing muscle tension due to stress and fatigue.

The solo rooms at Shine Spa are well equipped with facilities, such as a foot spa area, a steam sauna, an electronically adjustable massage bed, and complete shower amenities that you may enjoy all to yourself for a solo pamper date.

To fully immerse yourself in the spa experience, you should arrive at least 30 minutes before your appointment to allow for a seamless check-in and consultation, savor a refreshing welcome beverage, and enjoy the soothing steam sauna, which prepares the body for the treatments ahead.

After the steam session, you may indulge in a quick shower followed by a pre-massage foot scrub featuring a warm water soak to relax the feet, an application of aloe vera gel to hydrate the skin, and a gentle exfoliation using natural sea salt.

For the main event, which is the full-body massage, patrons’ favorites include the 60-minute Voyager’s Massage (P3,000), crafted to alleviate tension and soothe sore muscles, and the 60-minute Sports Massage (P3,000), designed to ease muscle aches and enhance mobility.

To end your session on an even more relaxing note, you may enjoy a comforting pot of hot tea paired with mixed nuts.

Sheraton Manila Hotel is located at 80 Andrews Ave., Pasay City.
