Our job here at Last Night Freedom is wide and varied… sometimes it includes trying to sell hats with willies on them and sometimes it includes…. getting massages?! We’ve been lucky to have had several visits from our supplier Glo Pamper, who specialise in massages and beauty treatments, to the office to give us a range of treatments. We do actual work sometimes…. Promise!
The lovely Ali has come into the office three times over the last six months. The first time Ali came in was when we had LNOF’s 25th Birthday Party on the night-time. With all that excitement going on it was lovely for us to be able to take a short while out of the day just to relax with back massages before the party of the century…
The second time Ali paid us a visit was in July to do us all facials. I’d never had a facial before, so it was exciting to try something new. It’s rather relaxing to have a beauty therapist exfoliate and massage your face. My face felt smoother than a particularly smooth pebble for literal months after that.
The final time she came to the office we were in for a real treat. She was offering a range of different massages for us to choose from including foot/leg massage, hand massage and back massage. We had to try all of them out for you, you’re welcome!
First up was the foot/leg massage. Ali explained that this could be done with socks/tights on or with them off depending on the client. Sitting opposite us, she used body lotion to massage all of the stress away, massaging the bottom of our feet and moving up the calf, working out any knots in the muscles. We felt relaxed right away.
Then we moved onto arm massages. This was full arm and hand massage with moisturiser that felt lovely. You don’t realise just how much tension you hold in your hands, especially if you work at a desk like us. The thumb pad particularly was amazing to have massaged as it relaxed the whole hand. You’ve got to hand it to Ali, it was pretty great….
Finally, we had a chair massage, which was a massage… in a chair. This wasn’t just any old chair though; you had to straddle the seat and lean on a cushioned head and arm rest. It was quite comfortable and definitely added to the relaxed atmosphere as she started the back and head massage. Ali used a series of different massage techniques including a bit of a head massage, which was nice. It was a very relaxing way to spend the morning I have to say!
Ali asked us if we wanted any music on, either spa music or a band of our choice. I wanted to ask for The Venga Boys, but I didn’t think that was really the right vibe, so we went for spa music. Calming sounds of chimes, wind, and soothing instruments aided our relaxation. Not only was there music, there was also a choice of different scents you could have including rose and eucalyptus.
Booking someone to do beauty treatments or a massage for your last night of freedom is highly advisable. It gives you a chance to enjoy some much-needed down time before hitting the clubs (or continuing to have a chill night in if that’s your vibe). Glo Pamper is a fully mobile service too! So, one of their therapists can come to your Hen Accommodation or venue, bringing the spa to you.
As a part of your hen weekend, you can enjoy either a or a from the comfort of your home or party house. You can even have a treatment in your hotel, providing there’s enough room for the massage equipment. We couldn’t recommend it enough. Ali, if you fancy coming back, we will certainly not be complaining!
