Body Scrub is a popular spa body treatment. It is basically a facial for the body. It exfoliates and hydrates your skin, leaving it smooth and soft. A body scrub is done usually sea salt or sugar mixed with massage oils and other aromatic essential oils treatment.
Benefits of body scrub
The exfoliating process rids the skin of dead skin cells to allow your skin to breathe. Once sloughed off, the skin has a more youthful, glowing appearance. The application of moisturizing lotion/ oil afterwards helps seal in the moisture and hydrates the skin. The result is refreshed skin which feels soft, silky and smooth.
Other body scrub benefits include:
- it nurtures the skin and increases circulation
- it relaxes the body and mind
- helps relieve stress
- helps release toxins from the body
What to expect from an exfoliating procedure?
A body scrub spa treatment might be offered as part of a spa package or stand-alone. Scrubs vary in how long they last and may be part of other spa treatments. Please inquire for more details.
If you have allergies or sensitive skin, make sure you mention this at the time of booking your appointment or ask to speak to one of our therapists. Do Not shave the day of your exfoliating scrub treatment.
Body scrubs are full body treatments which mean, we will apply the mixture all over your body, excluding the breasts and genital areas. After the body scrub has been applied, your therapist will wipe off excess with hot towels. At the end of the treatment, you will be massaged with a hydrating massage oil to moisten the skin.
After your body scrub, your skin will glow and will feel soft and smooth. Drink plenty of water. As with any spa service, massage or body treatment, scrubs release toxins in your system and need to be flushed out. Stay relaxed, try to avoid UV ray exposure (natural or otherwise) as the skin will be susceptible. Refrain from caffeine and alcohol beverages as they are dehydrating and will add toxins back into the system.
Body scrubs are wonderful and can be very relaxing. Because scrubs exfoliate the skin we suggest that you do not receive more than once a week.
Note: If you have any issues with your skin, please ask if this treatment would be advised or not. In addition, ask our massage therapist if there is a spa treatment that would be best suited for your skin condition.
Always confirm with your doctor or dermatologist that the treatment you want is safe for you to receive if you have any health concerns.
