Have you been thinking of visiting a day spa to relax your tired body and mind but are not sure what to expect or what types of therapies they offer? Perfect, I'm glad you've decided to put yourself first and seek whatever steps necessary to improve your well being. Most salons offer a myriad of treatments, much too extensive to list here, however, you will find the most popular applications available today. The rest is up to you. Enjoy and good health to you!
1. Body Wraps - If you're looking to tighten and tone your body, lose unwanted inches and have glowing skin, then a body wrap is what you need. Wraps are available as a kit for home use or offered at day spas. There are many treatments to chose from such as herbal wraps, sea weed, algae, sea clay and dry mineral wraps. Most applications are administered by wrapping the body in towels or elastic cotton gauze which remain for an hour. Once the treatment is done, a body lotion is applied.
2. Exfoliating Treatments - Everyday our bodies shed millions of skin cells, however, not all are purged at the same time nor at the same speed. This is why exfoliating is ideal in removing the layers of residual tissue, revealing a much more youthful appearance. Exfoliating can be done with salt scrubs (combination of sea salt and essential oils), sugar scrubs and body polishes which use coarse ingredients like rice and coffee grounds.
3. Facials - If you want a glowing complexion then a facial is for you. You can chose to have an herbal steam facial to rid you skin of black heads and impurities, a mud mask to detoxify or a blissful face massage to get the blood pumping. Depending on your specific skin care needs, your day spa will point you in the right direction. Either way, your face will thank you for it.
4. Massage - Whether you're looking to re-energize your tired body or relax those sore muscles, there is definitely a massage treatment with your name on it. It could be as simple as getting a Swedish massage where they knead, tap and stroke every muscle on your body or it could be a delightful hot stone massage where targeted areas are gently rubbed with warm basalt pebbles. Other options include seaweed and aromatherapy massages. Whichever you chose, you body will love you for it.
The above list of spa treatments make up only a tiny percentage of what salons offer, many have unique and original therapies that are only available through them. Visit your local day spa and enjoy a pampering massage, a revitalizing salt scrub or an herbal facial, you owe it to yourself some of life's little luxuries. - 15343
