Great Escape: Quick and Affordable Massages

How to pamper yourself without breaking the bank!

This week, we ask if you can remember the last time you had a massage? I used to think that massages were something I couldn't afford, but that was because I was looking into expensive day spas that I didn't have the time or money for. I recently discovered that Milpitas has a wide selection of affordable places to get relaxing massages!

These locations may not offer cucumber water or luxurious robes to change into, but they will help relieve stress and provide an escape without causing too much damage to your pocketbook! Another perk is that most smaller salons specialize in drop-in business, which helps when finding a babysitter is part of the problem. 

So the next time you find yourself rubbing your own aching shoulders or feet and grumbling that you don't have the time or money for treat yourself, drop by one of the following salons. Escape by yourself, with your spouse or some other deserving moms and you will feel rejuvenated in no time!
