Magazine articles on do-it-yourself spa treatments have always struck me as a little strange. Is it really possible to pamper yourself, if you have to do-it-yourself? Maybe not, because you can’t tickle your own feet and laugh, or send yourself flowers and get kilig.
Home spa treatments have to be done with proper decadence, so they can live up to their self-indulgent promise. Therefore, they work best when not self-inflicted. Orange Home Spa is a service that can bring high-quality spa services to your home, with just one phone call. The manager, Eric Tan, says all of Orange’s therapists are certified by the Philippine Wellness Institute and undergo professional training. Many of them are college graduates who took up Physical Therapy.
At P300 per hour, these massages are affordable even by out-of-home standards. Big bonus: you don’t have to get up after getting kneaded to sleep to put your clothes back on and drive groggily home. Simply grunt goodbye to your masseuse, and pass out on your own bed.

I totally hate goodbyes—whether I’m saying it to a person, a favorite show ending its series run, or a beach that I visited even for just a few days. So it pains me to have to bid farewell to CubaoX—sure I’ve only been there a couple of times, but this is place is pretty special. Once you step inside, you get the feeling that you’ve been let in on a juicy secret. The air is ripe with nostalgia, and the spot is so comfortably old school that you half expect a young Guy and Pip to round the corner.
Last December 2006, I attended the opening of Blow-up Babies photo studio in Serendra, The Fort. I’ve heard of its first branch at Gateway Mall in Araneta Center, but never got around to checking it out. They shoot excellent portraits with unique themes and set-ups. I’m glad I went because Diego, the Pooch with the Fro, and I had fun!
