The week of your wedding is when things start become very real — you are days away from getting married — and brides (and grooms) tend to tense up. You probably have lots of family in town that need entertaining, there are last-minute details to take care of and you just can’t get a minute alone.
So, take the Wednesday before your wedding and dedicate it to yourself — Get a massage. If you’d like more of a bonding experience with your fiance, get a couples massage. You’ll both feel more relaxed and ready for the big day as well as receive these great health benefits*:

• Lower blood pressure
• Healthier skin, better nourished from the inside
• Reduced pain from knotted up muscles or headaches
• Stronger immune system
Best massage in Dallas: Atlas Chiropractic — Ask for Fabi. $80.hr.
After your massage, be sure to drink plenty of water and continue to rest (at least for the rest of the day!).
