It's May! Which means Mother's Day is around the corner, hooray! Mom is the heart of the family and you want to treat her like the queen she is, yes? If you're still struggling with the perfect gift for the special lady in your life, consider a Spa Day! Whether she needs a massage, facial, or another spa treatment- I promise you, it will be appreciated. Of course, we love the homemade gifts, cards, and breakfast in bed our kids (or partners) make, truly. But ask mothers what they really want, deep down in their heart of hearts, and you'll often hear a similar theme "me time", a day off, a massage... quiet. The trouble is, we also want to spend time with our children on Mother's Day; we love those little guys! Solution? Gift card. A gift card is perfect because she can book an appointment when it's convenient and really make the most of her "me time". Here are a few spa treatment ideas for the women in your life:
Mom of Young(er) Children- She needs a little alone time... really. We love our children, but they are loud and always running, which means we're always going. An hour in a dimly lit room with soft music sounds AMAZING. Add in a professionally trained masseuse and I'm in heaven. Want to kick it up a notch? Schedule a couple's massage so you can both relax!
Mom of Teens- Ask anyone, teen girls are a challenge. If the mom in your life is looking for a way to reconnect with the sweet little girl (or boy!) she once knew, book them a spa day together! There's nothing quite like a day of pampering to break the teenage silence. Believe me, they'll both appreciate it. Throw in a little lunch and it's a perfect day!
Momma-To-Be- Excited as she may be for the little one's arrival, this momma's back is aching. The back rubs offered by her partner are lovely (and much appreciated!), but there are some aches only a professional can really fix. Pre-natal massage is the way to go for her.
New Moms- Hot. Stone. Massage. She's been rocking, bouncing, nursing, & shushing that wee one for weeks and she has the knots in her back to prove it. Help a new momma out, don't forget to factor in baby's nap/feeding schedule so she can really relax and enjoy herself--she deserves it.
Grandmas and Moms of Adult Children- She may take a bit more convincing that a massage is for her (I know my mom would!), but I'm betting she would be excited about a facial and a little relaxation. Most of all mom would love some quality one on one time with her grown baby. Treat her to a day of pampering, just the two of you. It doesn't have to be ON Mother's Day (you know she's going to want to see those grand-babies), give her a gift card and make a plan for a special day!
Yourself- Hey, there is NOTHING wrong with treating yourself. Take yourself for a relaxing massage, wax, facial, or all three!
