Body treatments are a wonderful, natural way to relax while enhancing your skin. Most often a mixture of herbs and minerals are used, and your skin is exfoliated and deeply hydrated. These treatments are designed to improve the appearance of the skin by helping rid the body of excess fluids and toxins. Wraps detoxify by stimulating your metabolic system, speeding its ability to carry away waste products. Since the skin is the largest organ of the human body, detoxification can have profound effects on our overall health and well being.
Some things to expect from a body treatment are the use of salts and other natural ingredients to exfoliate and detoxify the skin. One might get an orange blossom/peppermint salt glow, or a cucumber salt glow, or even coffee grounds, finely chopped pecan shells, or grape seed. They may use mud or other natural organic materials to help draw out toxins and soften the skin.
Skin will feel soft and should reduce the fine lines after just one treatment, it firms body tissue and visibly tightens skin. Because this body treatment is so relaxing, it is known to reduce stress and thereby lowers blood pressure.
A few things to be aware of, if you have claustrophobia this may not be the treatment for you. Don’t expect the wrap to be a massage. You can get both treatments, body wrap and massage, or look for signature treatments that include a scrub, wrap and massage.
