Who doesn’t love a relaxing massage or a rejuvenating facial?

In the world of busy women juggling jobs, motherhood and a variety of other tasks, we take so little time to take care of ourselves that spa services are a rare luxury to most of us.

While I love massages, generally it is one of those guilty pleasures that I never seem to be able to make time for. But when I can, it is always absolutely worth it. Spa services are not only beneficial for reducing stress, but many have some wonderful health benefits as well. So this month our main feature focuses on the type of spa services available and what their additional benefits include.

Trying to come up with a feature idea for the March Jill is always a difficult task; we’re not done with winter and it’s not quite spring. Being sandwiched in between these two seasons also leaves most of us feeling pretty dreary and “blah.” Since I have always wanted to do a spa issue, I decided what better month to decide to focus on relaxation, rejuvenation and welcome spring?

Hopefully after reading our spa issue you will be inspired to go out and indulge yourself in one of the luxuries we mention in this issue. And for those of you that cannot justify sacrificing the time or money, just remember, it’s an investment in you and you are worth it! After you enjoy that spa appointment, be sure to log on to www.jillmagonline.com and tell us about it so we can all share the experience. Of course, many of you already do have a way to take time to yourselves and that is by curling up and reading your monthly Jill magazine.
