We young people lead stressful lives. Updating our facebook statuses, waiting for that new FOTC episode to download, twittering frantically... Naturally, all that time bent over a computer means havoc for our backs, and - if my $75/hr physio taught me anything - the only way to combat a life of inevitable pain and humpbackedness is to get up every ten minutes, do regular complex stretches, and stickytape a list of neck exercises to the side of your laptop/car dashboard. Like most normal people, I chose to ignore that advice and take the easy (and significantly cheaper) way out: temomin.
Temomin is a little sanctuary of calm and renewal smack bang in the middle of our city's busiest precincts. They specialise in quick and easy massage - no oils or nudity, unless you really want it - and, in only one ten minute session, can knead and dig all your stresses away with their clever little hands.
Yep, it's the sort of place designed for a life on the run: where you can simply walk in in the middle of a busy day and take a quick break to relax and refresh with almost no harm to your time, dignity or wallet.
At only $10-$13 a pop, you'll be feeling less stressed already.
Ambience: Indoor
Difficulty: Won't hurt a bit
