Adventures of Spa Girl #9: Wensha Spa Antipolo

When I heard that Wensha Antipolo opened, I was raring to try it out. I mentioned in my other post here that I enjoyed my time in Wensha Spa, Panay Ave (Timog) thus I wanted to try their newer branch.

Look at the Wensha Spa lady in the picture, so effin' relaxed like putty

So I hauled a skeptical-if-he-would-like-Wensha Spa Deep Tissue Massage boy there, but setting his expectations that we will not be together most of the time. He was amenable to that considering we don't talk much when we do spa time anyway.

We set a time to meet at the buffet area since that will be the only time that we can be together. I was sorta-kinda-a-bit worried that he will not enjoy it because DTM will be co-mingling with nekkid men, with all their jewels hanging and steaming in the sauna.

But boy was I wrong.

We got to Wensha Spa around 11:30 pm and unfortunately, the receptionist said that the steam and hot tub will be shutting off at 12:00 am for maintenance purposes. We said it is OK, not a problem for us. We paid and we were given our locker bracelets and slippers

Wonder twin powers activate! Form of a relaxed person like the Wensha Spa logo!

I got pink slippers 'coz I'm a giiiirl

We said we will meet each other after x amount of hours so we can enjoy the buffet and shabu-shabu together. We went out separate ways (Aaand, my mind is now compelling me to sing Separate Lives by Phil Collins since I said the word separate. Ah brain, how simple you work sometimes).

(Tarzan voice) "You girl. You here."

"You boy. Us here."

I went to the locker room and the Wensha Antipolo attendant gave me my robe and towel with a smile. I left my bag, slippers  and robe in the locker to strip nekkid in the changing stall, only taking my towel with me. The changing stalls are right past the free toiletries post (powder, lotion, atringent, tissue, cotton, disposable toothbrush, toothpaste, comb, gel, hair dryer).

But, you can also strip in front of your locker, if you don't mind other peoples seeing your buttickular and boobular area :p

The Breakdown

Wensha Spa Wet area: They have a steam room, dry sauna, hot tub, cold tub and shower rooms.
Soap and shampoo will be provided so all you need to bring is your conditioner if you are like me who has hair that dries up like the desert if it doesn't get conditioned.

Use your imagination on what the Wensha Spa wet area looks like because I was not allowed to take pictures of the wet area, lest I take pictures of bo0bies of other folks.

They also have basins and ice in the wet area so you can use that to cool your face off in the steam room if you are into that.


What do you wear during the massage: In the wet area you will be in your birthday suit, all naked like the day you were born. For the massage, you will wear the robe and shorts.
Personally in the wet area, after taking a shower, I just have a towel wrapped around me. Then I remove it when I start the whole hot tub-sauna-cold tub cycle.

Wensha Spa Ambiance: Leaps and leaps better than the one in Wensha Spa Timog. The ladies' massage area is 2 floors down the wet area while the men's massage area is 1 floor down. It is quiet and there are more private rooms. It is sparsely decorated, reminds you of an empty classroom but with beds instead of chairs.

Wensha Spa Price range: Php 680 for a 1 hr Wensha Spa massage, use of the wet area and buffet + Shabu-shabu! Sa-weet.

Anything for the mouth: Buffet and Shabu-shabu. The buffet only last until 2 am while the shabu-shabu is 24/7. Oddly enough they also have pop-corn at Wensha Antipolo. LOL.

shabu-shabu goodness

The buffet is not that mind-blowingly-yummy but it fills you :)

The Good
This is a very sulit (worth it) deal, considering the price you have to pay and the services that you will get.
And, the location is nice, you get to have a good view, overlooking Marikina while you eat and drink with your friends at Wensha Antipolo :-)

The Wensha Antipolo dining area is at just below that Cafe Lupe sign

The waiting area is also helluva nicer than the one in Wensha Spa Timog

The Massage
The Wensha Antipolo massage was all sorts of heaven. I mean, when my therapist did that thing with my shoulder blades, I had to really work extra hard to keep myself from orgasmically moaning.

Wensha Spa induced face-gasm

And when she got to the part where she stretched my muscles into a happier state, I was half thinking that if my muscles can talk, they will confess their love to the massage therapist. And my other thought was how was my small and petite therapist able to carry me body just like that.

The Not-so-Good
Dear Wensha Antipolo,
Please remember to stock up on disposable undies because they were out of stock when I wne there.
Also, the initial numbers on your FB account are not working and the contact info on FB is confusing coz it looks like this: "26557377"
Next time, it will also be wonderful if you end up having couples massage rooms
XOXO,
Spa Girl
P.S. You have one shower stall in the girl's locker that does not have a working lever.
