“BoB” stands for “Best of Bangkok”. Why wouldn’t you combine 2 of the best things you can do in Bangkok?

We combined our Colors of Bangkok excursion with a 2 hour Aromatherapy Massage in one of Bangkok’s best spas.

Aromatherapy Massage is a gentle massage of the full body, using the healing properties of pure essential oils. Essential oils are aromatic extracts distilled from plants, trees and herbs. The scent from essential oils activates nerve cells in the nose which send impulses to the limbic system - the area of the brain associated with emotions and memories. During an aromatherapy massage, the pure essential oils are absorbed through your skin, stimulating well-being and encouraging a healthy mental, physical and emotional body.

The word massage? Where what why and how? This is easy to find on one of the worlds most nice website ( this is personal.) This ONE Great if you like words and language. Anyhow a simple search made me find out where this word is coming from:

It is actually from 1876 massage meaning friction of kneading, from Masser or TO massage. Possible this came from Arabic Massa, ” to touch, to feel, to handle”.
Probably this word was picked up there ( in Egypt.) during the Napoleonic Campaign there. Other possibility is that France got it in colonial India from port Ammasar: ” Kneed ” , a verb from L. Massa ( Mass, dough )

The verb is attested from 1887. Masseur, female Masseuse, both dating all the way back to 1876, are from Fr. Masser.

Massage Parlor first attested in 1913, from the start a euphemism for ” house of prostitution. “

According to others it also can be processes which nuclear magnetization return to equilibrium distribution. Don’t think we are there yet: What about: Dielectric Relaxation; the delay in the dielectric constant of a material. If you still don’t think you had enough relaxation try this one:

Relaxation is the act of substituting alternative program code during Linking.

But what do FAMOUS people have to tell about relax or relaxation:

- It is in human nature to RELAX, when not compelled by personal advantage or disadvantage.  ( Goethe.)
- Get out of the blocks, run your race, stay RELAXed. If you run your race, you’ll win. Channel your energy. Focus. ( Carol Lewis.)
-  Nothing destroys authority more than the unequal and untimely interchange of power stretched too far and RELAXed too much. ( Francis Bacon.)
-  Art raises its head where creeds RELAX. ( Friedrich Nietzsche.)
- Two frogs fell into a bowl of cream. One didn’t panic, he RELAXED and drowned. The other kicked and struggled so much that the cream turned to butter and he walked out. ( Source Unknown.)
- I have often said that I wish I had invented blue jeans: the most spectacular, the most practical, the most RELAXED and nonchalant. They have expression, modesty, sex appeal, simplicity — all I hope for in my clothes (Yves Saint- Laurent.)

And to make it all even better: where does the word come from, or also called Etymology:

RELAX:

Tomorrow October 1st, Dahra Beauty and Spa at invitation from the Montpelier Group will be a part of Bangkok’s finest hotel. The Dusit Thani Hotel at Silom.
Some History:

The Dusit Thani Group was founded in 1949 by Than Phu Ying Chanut Piyaoui, who opened the Princess Hotel on New Road in Bangkok. The company opened its flagship hotel, the Dusit Thani Hotel, in Bang Rak district, Bangkok in 1970. It acquired its first resort-style property in 1987 when it renovated a hotel in Pattaya and renamed it the Dusit Resort Pattaya. Other resorts followed, including the Dusit Resort Hua Hin in 1989. The company branched out to Northern Thailand in 1991, opening hotels in Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai.

Boom years in the 1990s led the Dusit Thani Group to overseas investment in the Melrose Investment Partnership, which acquired the Melrose Hotel in Dallas, Texas. Those shares were subsequently sold. The chain entered Indonesia in 1994, opening hotels in Balikpapan and Jakarta. The company also acquired the Kempinski group of hotels and was responsible for managing all the Germany hotelier’s properties. But with the East Asian financial crisis, the Dusit Thani Group sold its shares in those ventures.

In 1995, the Dusit Thani Group acquired the Hotel Nikko Manila, which it still owns. The group entered the Middle East in 2001, opening the Dusit Dubai.

The Dusit Thani Group is publicly traded on the Stock Exchange of Thailand (DTC), with 10.28% of the company’s shares owned by Pioneer Global Group.

A great place for some brand awareness won’t you say….

Dahra Beauty and Spa as a proud Sponsor of the ServCorp annual bowl Off is looking forward to set some bowling examples  at the Blu O Rhythm & Bowl, Thursday, 1st of October 2009. All for the Camillian Home for Disabled children.

The Camillian Missionaries came to Thailand in the early 1950’s to provide poor people with medical treatment. With the same spirit of ” caring for the sick as a mother cares for her sick child” the Cammillian missionaries are still present in Thailand and are dedicated to caring and serving the sick people of Thailand.

Again we thank sevcorp for the invitation and I hope our relaxing Spa vouchers, will be of use for the disabled.
