It may sound cheesy but it&#8217;s true: if you have thirty minutes (especially on a Tuesday) you can improve your outlook and your health.</p>
<p>These are some of the benefits of massage from<a href="http://www.massagetherapy.com/learnmore/benefits.php"> Massage Therapy</a>:</p>
<p><strong>The Benefits Of Massage</strong><br />

<li>Assist with shorter, easier labor for <strong>expectant mothers</strong> and shorten maternity hospital stays.</li>

<li>Exercise and stretch <strong>weak, tight, or atrophied muscles.</strong></li>
<li>Help <strong>athletes</strong> of any level prepare for, and recover from, strenuous workouts.</li>

Scaly? Dry? You may have a case of winter skin! You&#8217;re not alone. Heating systems and winter air can dry out the skin, taking away that supple look that we all love so much. As usual, our <a href="http://www.mintconditionyourself.com/content/therapist-Shirin-Rahmatollahi"><strong>skin wizard Shirin</strong> </a>has something for you:</p>
<p>&#8220;Here is a tip for a night moisturizer for the winter,&#8221; Shirin says. &#8220;Hydrate clean skin with sweet almond oil that&#8217;s been infused with a drop or two of frankincense and/or myrhh&#8230;this mixture is great for general hydration and also anti-aging!&#8221;</p>
<p>Try it out! Let us know how it works&#8230;</p>
<p>And if that sounded too complicated, the spa and book an appointment with <a href="http://www.mintconditionyourself.com/content/therapist-Shirin-Rahmatollahi">Shirin</a>. 202. 328. MINT</p>
