A massage table in Bath, Maine
No matter if you’re a high-strung bundle of nerves or as cool as a cucumber 24-7, everyone can use some pampering relaxation from time to time. And I get it—everyone’s definition of how to best accomplish said relaxation is going to be different.
But since I’m the one writing this article, I get to give my uncontested opinion on the subject, which is that there is no better way to unwind—or heal what ails you—than to get a massage. And because there are a fair few types of massages, there’s bound to be one in the Bath/Brunswick area suited for your preferences and needs.
I suggest you go all out and head to a day spa so that you can treat yourself to even more self-indulgence while you’re at it. Full-body Swedish massage, anti-aging facial, and a spa mani-pedi? Yes, PLEASE!
