so i wrote a little while back about trying out one of these machines all the girls use around here. besides not eating much, the local hk chinese gals also subscribe to the idea of crazy "slimming" treatments. a really cheap deal came through twangoo (groupon sorta thing) so i thought i would give it a whirl. there is a place in central but it caters to expats and is therefore more than double the cost (and i found a place in manhattan that offers it for usd100/session where i paid usd12/session).
so i skip off during lunch to causeway bay for a 1/2 treatment about once a week (maybe twice if i have time). this spa is definitely local but the woman who owns it is very nice. they are not uptight about cancelations, she calls me dear when she emails me back and they seem to have a penchant for bette midler. ive heard "the rose" more times over these past 8 sessions than i ever thought i would in my entire life.
now, i am not sure if it is working or not. it is hard to tell the results because dragon boat season has started so i am exercising 3 more times a week than before. regardless, she gave me a whopping discount on another package and i will go back for a few more sessions. at the very least, i get to nap for 1/2 hour ;)
