Spa Cloud View this post on Instagram Happy Sunday before Valentine’s Day everyone! If you are scrambling for what to offer a special someone, we’d love to share some of our best ideas of ways to show someone you care (that is actually applicable year round) * Surprise them - Whether it’s a beautiful breakfast, a bottle of their favorite wine or just a note left on your fridge, a little surprise gesture is always meaningful * Turn off your all electronics - In our current day to day bombardments of notifications and constant emails, it has become hard to dedicate all our attention to one single task, let alone one person. So turn off all your gadgets and be present with your special someone * Do something they like, but that you don’t - This one is BIG! Literally choosing to put yourself in a undesired position for the sake of your partners enjoyment, that will make this gesture extra romantic * Make your gift - We all know it’s easy to go to a store and pick something up and perhaps that would have made them happy, but the gesture of planning, making and offering a homemade gift heightens the specialness of the item by far * Make a list of all the things you like about them - because who doesn’t love compliments? And this will also help you remember some of the reason you chose this person to be in your life We hope some of these tips will be able to highlight someone special in your life and remember, these are also applicable year round :) #grateful #valentinesday #couplesgoals #giftideas #couplesgifts #love #grateful #romantic #couplesmassage #massages #idéedecouple #stvalentin #amour A post shared by Spacloud (@spacloud) on Feb 10, 2019 at 7:49am PST Offering some super exclusive treatments such as cryotherapy (a chilled sauna using liquid nitrogen) and light therapy, this is definitely where you want to recover from any stress the winter storm as brought you.
