I hate facials like whoa. I don't mind facial waxing though.

I've had one professional massage. It was okay. Not good enough to make me want to be naked and at the mercy of a stranger with any regularity.
The times when I am all tense and could probably use a massage, I really don't want to be touched, partly because I am sure that any poking at the clenched muscles will hurt like the dickens.

When I get my eyebrows done, it's in the dimmed room with scented candles burning and relaxing music playing. She has me lie down on a warmed, well-padded table. Then, when I'm nice and relaxed, she starts ripping my eyebrows out by the roots.

I never thought I would like facials until I had one, but the results were pretty awesome. I don't think my face had ever been that clean before, ever.
My office used to offer free 20-minute massages once a month. They need to bring those back.

move out and draw fire
I liked that line too.
I had one facial (not thinking pr0n, not!) and was eh. My face didn't look or feel different.
Massages, OTOH, when done well, are nirvana. I'm trying to decide if I want to pay $2/minute for a massage at the new place near me (I probably won't, as I'd have to walk home, and a good massage leaves me all wobbly).
And yeah, I was a bit ooked by the thought of someone else touching me, but hey, plenty of amateurs have done it, why not a trained professional?

Hee! Thank you, Raq. Yes, I have seen them, and actually have the one from the Guardian printed out and posted on my office door.
I luuuuurve massages, facials, body scrubs ... just about any spa service, really. I'm hoping to go back to the giant Korean-style Spa of Doom in July. Multiple soaking pools, and packages that include a full body scrub AND a moisturisng treatment that involves being covered with olive oil and honey, and then having fresh grated cucumber applied to your face.
... well, there went any motivation I might have had for work. To heck with editing, I want to spend the day getting a body scrub and a facial.
