Ana María Ruiz : owner of “masaje y esencias” BEAUTY SALON
“Giving a massage to someone is a way of re-energising their body”
Ana María Ruiz and her daughter Laura Ramírez have been giving specialised beauty treatments for over ten years to customers at their quiet beauty salon on Calle Huéscar, Malaga. They believe that nowadays, massages are more of a necessity than a luxury, in the same way that enjoying yearly holidays is.
What does giving a massage mean to people?
Giving a massage to someone who passes day after day working hard, is like completely re-energising their bodies for them. The women that come here leave feeling relaxed and energised which is just what is needed to ease tension.
Why do you say “women” instead of “customers”?
Well, because the majority of my customers are female, but I have to say that recently more and more men seem to come in.
Is this due to the so-called “metrosexual” culture?
Possibly. An increasing number of businesses are selling products specifically designed for males. Men that come here aren’t that different to women; they usually ask for a facial, pedicure, body hair removal treatments and massages.
What other services do you offer?
Therapeutic as well as relaxing massages, and general beauty therapy treatments such as facials, shiatsu, muscle toning, reflexology and micro-pigmentation.
What would you say are the most popular treatments?
People tend to let us advise them. Everyone loves a massage and we offer enough varied treatments to surprise customers. Massages using chocolate, essential oils, mud, sea salt and seaweed usually make a good impression on our customers.
In what way does the summer season affect business?
It has quite an effect. People take good care of themselves in Malaga because everyone wants to achieve that perfect “bikini body”. Nevertheless, summer is usually a quiet time for us as many go away on holiday. Spring is the best time for business for us.
