3. Treat him to a manly massage

Did you know that most spas offer specific treatments just for men? Pamper dad with a massage, pedicure, scrub or facial this Father’s Day. Some of our favorites are the Adolphus spa which offers a full men’s manicure and pedicure, or the Hotel Crescent Court which has an array of men's services like their Sports Massage. The scrub is designed to increase circulation and purification with body brushing, exfoliation, therapeutic oils and mud. You can also just get him a classic Four Seasons Signature Massage at the Four Seasons in Las Colinas, because sometimes a basic massage is all he needs.
