A world of wellness

MANILA, Philippines - Imagine stepping inside a peaceful oasis — with the soft, incandescent glow of candles, the aroma of essential oils that seduces one to relax, the strains of soothing music and luxurious Asian fabrics spread over the soft beds. Without doubt, the newly opened BlueWater Day Spa along Tomas Morato represents the ultimate in rest, relaxation and pampering — a welcome treat located right in the middle of Quezon City’s busy business and leisure row.

“BlueWater Day Spa in Tomas Morato offers a venue where a harried working person can pamper the body with world-class services that are exclusive to BlueWater Day Spa,” says Ryan Simisim, BlueWater Day Spa’s vice president.

The idea of bringing a haven of soulful wellness into the center of Tomas Morato’s business and restaurant section is the brainchild of BlueWater Day Spa Tomas Morato’s franchise owners — Dick and Mars Balajadia, who are spa enthusiasts themselves. The young couple saw the potential of putting up an all-inclusive wellness center in the heart of Tomas Morato.

“The location is perfect because Tomas Morato lies in the business and leisure district of Quezon City. It is near the two major TV networks, plus there are a lot of corporate centers in the area, not to mention the area’s restaurant row. The traffic is high and people who normally go there are those who want to unwind after a long day’s work. We want to offer them a beneficial way of chilling out,” says Dick.

The franchise owners take great pride in the branch’s Spa Theater. The 16-seater theater offers foot reflexology, manicure and pedicure, body massage, scrub and waxing while allowing guests to enjoy their favorite movie. The Spa Theater is equipped with state-of-the-art projector, screen and audio equipment to make the experience truly one-of-a-kind.

“Ever since, we really love going to spas. We love the experience of being pampered. We want to share the same experience to other people,” says Mars.
