THE JACUZZI: BEFORE OR AFTER YOUR MASSAGE?
The jacuzzi is much more than a moment of pleasure: it brings real benefits for body and mind. Its pleasantly warm water and the jets that leave you feeling almost weightless make it an excellent way to ease stress, and even anxiety. In Saint-Germain-des-Prés, many of our guests ask us whether they should enjoy our private jacuzzi before or after their massage.
The answer is simple: the jacuzzi shows its full potential… once the massage is over.
Here is why.
EXTENDING THE BENEFITS OF YOUR MASSAGE
During a Thai massage or a Mix d’Asie massage (our signature treatment), your therapist works deep into muscle tension. It is therefore normal for some hard-working muscles to feel a little tender afterwards. That is a good sign: it means that, thanks to the massage, the body is correcting the imbalances that were still there.
After the session, the jacuzzi helps ease this tenderness: the warmth dilates the blood vessels, improves circulation and supports recovery — much like stretching after a workout. It also helps release the last traces of tension, making it ideal for relieving a stiff neck or heavy legs.
THE BEST WAY TO END YOUR WELLBEING BREAK
After a massage, it is best to choose calm activities: a walk, a book, a bath… There are a few simple steps that help you make the most of your massage, and the jacuzzi is one of them! Did you know that by soothing body and mind, it can also help you sleep better, thanks to the release of endorphins and melatonin? In that case, of course, it is best enjoyed at the end of the day.
Ending your experience with this warm bath lets your mind float a little longer… a gentle transition before you leave Janthra Spa, taking your bubble of wellbeing with you.
At Janthra Spa, our purpose is to take care of the body and mind of every guest. Would you like to experience a Thai massage in Saint-Germain-des-Prés? Book your session online today.
