MANILA, Philippines - There’s more to hunky Benjamin Alves than famous relations. (Right, Piolo Pascual?)

While it’s something that he can’t help but deal with, the aspiring young hunk, who was raised in Guam, is still set on making a name for himself in the local showbiz industry through his own merit. As such, his determination to succeed, talent and good looks has made him a welcome addition to BlueWater Day Spa’s roster of brand ambassadors.

Benjamin, who studied at the University of Guam, has already appeared in a string of movies, which include If Only, Ang Cute ng Ina Mo and Death March. Aside from modeling, he also has his fair share of success n television, having appeared in a variety of shows both for ABS-CBN and GMA-7.

Having been launched as one of GMA-7’s heartthrobs, Benjamin of course, has to maintain his lean physique and be more conscious of how he takes care of his body. He was even one of Cosmopolitan Philippines’ 69 Bachelors at the recently held Bachelor Bash.

Aside from regular visits to the gym, biking and eating healthy, it is also important for Benjamin that he gets enough rest and relaxation. This is where BlueWater Day Spa comes in.

For hunks like Benjamin, the spa’s Athlete’s Massage is highly recommended as it is meant to pamper the body after a strenuous activity. This invigorating treatment is a therapeutic massage especially designed for athletes. It comes with a 10-minute application of hot moist packs, which help heal muscle pain and improve mobility followed by a massage applied with a mentholated oil that focuses on joint and muscle pains and spasms.

BlueWater Day Spa was hailed as one of the country’s Top 3 Best Spas in the CHInoy TV Awards in 2011. The spa was also recognized by prestigious award-giving bodies such as: Top Brand Awards 2012, Gold Brand 2012, Asia Pacific Excellence Awards 2012 and the upcoming National Customer’s Choice Awards 2014. It was also nominated in the Asia Spa awards 2013 and 2014.
