Body treatments are services performed in a spa on any skin other than the face. Many body treatments have the same goals as face treatments, including cleaning, moisturizing, and exfoliation. The skin is the largest organ of the body, and is the protective barrier for the rest of the organs. The skin battles a host of environmental challenges, such as heat, dryness, and the sun. Body treatments use innovative products to rejuvenate skin though affecting the skin’s surface. These treatments have similar ingredients to face treatments, but are applied to a larger area. These services take place in a relaxing, softly lit, spa room. The services offered at this spa include a back facial, a body scrub, and a detoxifying wrap. Body Treatments are an excellent way to relax and rejuvenate the body.
Process of Body Treatments
Each body treatment has its own process. Our back facial begins with the aesthetician closely examining the skin under a magnified glass to identify problem areas. The aesthetician can then pick out the best products to use for the service. Next, dirt and oil is removed using a mild cleanser. Extractions may be performed at the client’s request. An exfoliating solution is applied by the aesthetician and dead skin is removed by lightly scrubbing the back. Moisturizing lotion may be applied at the end to keep skin hydrated after the treatment.
During a body scrub service, the aesthetician covers the client’s body with a mild aromatic exfoliant, which is then massaged in. At the end of the treatment, it is washed off, leaving the skin soft and smooth. The detoxifying wrap begins with the aesthetician applying a cleansing solution. The body is then wrapped in special paper and warmed under a heating blanket. This process draws out dirt, oil, and other impurities. The body is then uncovered and the solution is removed.
Benefits of Body Treatments
Regular body treatments help the skin look and feel its best. The back, shoulders, and chest stay free from breakouts. This is especially important in warmer months when extra sweat causes pores to clog and body acne to form. These services are also great to prepare for any type of vacation when you want to look your best. Legs and arms stay smoother during the winter when dehydration causes flakiness. Body treatments are a great way to relax and treat yourself. Let the stress melt away and rejuvenate your skin.
