Foot Massage Lounge: A Place to Treat Your Mind, Body, and Sole

 
What a better place to relax your mind, body and sole with  Foot Massage Lounge, The very first impression when I come in the place is that was so amazed on how it was being presented and reinvented by the management through some of the international Asian counterparts such as Korea, Japan, Thailand ect. It’s the first and one of a kind SPA that gives overall importance and caress on the feet here in the Philippines .   As I chat and talk with my masseur , I happened to know and learn that before they are qualified do their actual massage , they have to undergo three (3) months actual training in order to make it more authentic and doing things scientifically correct and proper.  Feet is the one that carry your weight from one place to another. Whether you walk or run to your destination, and as you climb the ladder of success, they take you to where you want to go. They are often overlooked though, as they are not usually visible and encased in designer shoes or athletic footwear. The end of a hard day of work and play equals sore soles that definitely need quality pampering. The new concept Foot Massage Lounge, which is located in the Bonifacio Global City offer services that give your feet their much needed treat.   The experience starts with the relaxing modern ambience that offers a quiet escape from the city stress, with plush customized massage couches in rooms that are quiet, private, and comfortable. The black-and-white décor is a conscious effort to steer away from the usual look and feel of Zen massage lounges. Hardworking entrepreneur Cat Ilacad, herself a fan of foot massage benefits, explains she is offering a different experience for clients looking for quality me-time. “The usual set-up in other massage lounges are crowded chairs in common rooms where one has to contend with noise and chatter. My concept is that of a boutique hotel lounge, where one can relax and luxuriate in a quiet setting.” Cat, who is also the lady behind the hugely successful mani-pedi concept Posh Nails with its pretty pink-and-purple interiors, opted for a black-and-gold palette for Foot Massage Lounge. This is to give the feel of elegance and opulence in preparation for the luxurious pampering from their highly-trained massage therapists. The temperature-controlled dim-lighted massage rooms that have their own TV sets can accommodate couples or even a sparty of up to 14 guests. More than just treating your footsies with the Deluxe Foot Massage (P600) which focuses on foot reflexology, the therapists also work their magic on back and neck pains with the FML Signature Massage, 75-minutes of a blissful shiatsu and reflexology treatment that works out the knots and aches brought about by overwork and stress. Cat describes it as “the best 75 minutes of dry massage in a very unique and relaxing ambiance. Here, everything is personalized. Before your session, the receptionist asks what kind of pressure you prefer for your dry massage, and if you would like a male or female therapist for the service.” She talks about the benefits of their massage services: “From traditional medicine practices, Foot Reflexology is believed to not only soothe sore feet, it can alleviate most other body aches and pains. We also combine foot reflexology with a soothing massage for the head, neck, shoulders and back, that will help reduce muscle tension, improve blood circulation, and relieve acute and chronic pain. Our massage is also recommended to induce better lymph movement, Improve and increase the mobility and range of motions of joints.” Other wholistic health benefits of the massage, according to research, are stimulating or soothing the nervous system, enhancing skin condition, aiding in digestion and intestinal functions, and boosting the immune system. Your feet work hard to take you to the top. It is about time to treat them to a relaxing journey that is designed to rejuvenate the mind, body and sole.  Foot Massage Lounge is located at 2/F Forum South Global Bldg. Bonifacio Global City, Fort Bonifacio, Taguig City. For more information, visit www.footmassagelouge.com or call 0926-7334929/02-2186744.

UNO Magazine releases The Mocha Girls Special

If you think that they are just a simple girl group who gets TV time by dancing and singing on variety shows, think again.
A New batch of Mocha girls talents were launched last December 17 at the OFF The Grill Timog , and a live show will be held afterwards.
There is more to the Mocha Girls than just skin deep attraction.
Landing on the cover of UNO, the ultimate guide for men in the Philippines, proves there is more to them than just fleshy beauty. This pop all-girl group has seen its share of beautiful faces come and go, but one thing that has remained constant is the founder and the person who lent her name to the group, ringleader Mocha Uson. Mocha says what keeps the group going is the drive to reinvent itself. The current members minus Mocha were not there when Mocha Girls started seven years ago. But Mae, Franz, Seika, Georgina, Jhane with Mocha have found a way to use each other's strengths and complement these to form a cohesive, well-oiled pop group that thrives on reinvention. Mocha Girls has earned its share of awards for pop hits and with every new song it has released, continues to prove they are not a one-hit girl-group wonder. Mae uses her sweet personality to create the group's choreography; Franz comes across as the anti-thesis to pop with her naughty hip-hop moves; Jhane is both rocker-chic and alluring belly dancer; Seika provides the J-Pop flavor; Georgina brings the fashionista model to the stage and bringing it all together is Mocha, post-modern feminist and superwoman in one sexy, smart package. In this issue of UNO magazine, readers and Mocha Girls will be treated to a very visual feast of the girls in different titillating poses. And lots of skin bared too. But what makes this UNO issue even more special is the informative featurettes on each member of the group. It provides a rare glimpse into how the girls think, how they feel about things and situations around them--generally, it's like a one-on-one date with a girl you like. And the surprise bonus? The issue contains a free calendar inside, featuring, of course, the Mocha Girls. Go ahead, treat yourself to a dose of Mocha and her girls. It's gonna be well worth it to find out what gets these six ladies going, moving, and rising up. UNO magazine is available in all leading bookstores and magazine stands nationwide.

Earth Day Jam Post Event

Climate change is a pressing reality. With typhoons, floods, earthquakes and other environmental disasters looming, our Mother Earth has obviously chosen to cry out loud. But does the general public know the different causes of these calamities? Do they even care? Or has the all too familiar "it won't happen in my lifetime" concept gotten into everyone's heads? The Philippines' longest running environmental awareness concert, Earth Day Jam, has brought together some of the country's biggest pop music artists, celebrities, public personalities, Socio-Civic groups, concerned companies and of course the general public for over 13 years now. Through his musical tribute for Mother Earth, they address the most pressing environmental issues affecting the globe, most especially the Philippines, and push for aggressive community based and individual centered participative action. More than just a concert event, they continuously bombard their audience (predominantly teenagers) with audio visual presentations highlighting the importance of environmental preservation. Various speakers are also allowed speak and thereby give a certain "academic touch" as many of the facts and figures they give are rarely seen on Youtube or Facebook these days. Effective? Well many of the Youth who participated voiced out their reactions online such as: "SalamatEarthday Jam! Sobrang dami naming natutunan!" and "Next year ulit! Let's take care of the Earth! Buti naman may magandang asal na ang tinuturo ng mga banda!" With its highly publicized success in Manila, Earth Day Jam sought to conquer new shores with its "Earth Day Jam on Tour." Armed with a small group of solid artists, musicians and the entire creative team, they brought the same "Movement Through Music" concept to other parts of the country. Kicking it off at The Terraces in Ayala Center Cebu, Earth Day Jam opened the concert to a jampacked crowd with inspired performances from local bandsBambuSpliff, Dance With me Kris and Kaliftra. The Cebuanos however, got loose only during the solid performances of Manila's premier Manila artists .They were mesmerized with eco-artist-producer Lou Bonnevie performing with much gusto and wit that got the audience up to their feet. Rivermaya, Nina and Noel Cabangon was at their best elements. The group then flew off to Dumaguete for another jampacked performance, only this time to be joined by local band, Skillage and Acoustic icon Paolo Santos in Robinsons’ Activity Center. In less than a week, Earth Day Jam then visited the Marquee Mall in the beautiful city of Pampanga with an added performance by the Bloomfields. The events, hosted by Karel Marquez, Midi G. and Danica Sotto, all stayed true to their roots. Their main purpose and the all important theme of environmentalism was never forgotten. "Green" games were played, and seedlings from partner government agency DENR were given to the audience. Environmental guest speakers taught everyone a thing or two about how they themselves could help in the fight against climate change. Several Audio visual presentations as collated and produced by Earthday jam Director Toto Gentica swept the minds of the youngsters that the only way we can mitigate the ill effects of manmade pollution is by making a concerted effort in doing the little things that matter such as . Several relief goods were given by the audience in support of the typhoon survivors.
