subject: Being Wrapped For Beauty [print this page] One mention of California brings many visions of summer to mind -surfboards, white sandy beaches, tanned skin-the list just goes on and on. A trip to California promises to have fun in the sun, a beach within reach, and some sand in your hand.
But sand isn't the only naturally occurring form of earth that California is known for. One form of sand - mud - has thousands of people literally sighing in relief. People often think that mud is simply soil or dirt mixed with rain water. Strictly speaking, that particular statement is true. But mud can also be made from so many other substances that mud has made its way into more healthy and sanitary purposes.
One example of mud's benefits to mankind is in the field of body treatment. In the city of San Jose, California, body wraps are popular among the more health conscious populace. It invigorates and tones the body by detoxifying and cleansing it.
For a number of the people, San Jose body wrap sessions can help them lose weight, although there have been much speculation about the weight-reducing properties of body wraps. Medical experts believe that although body wraps can cause profuse perspiration that can lead to a loss of a few inches around the waist and a few inches off the scale, the loss is only temporary. The lost fluids are quickly replaced by drinking or the consumption of food.
Weight reduction myths not withstanding, body wraps are still popular in San Jose for its effects on the skin. Spa owners and patrons worldwide attest to the effects of mud on skin, and how it eases water retention in the skin. This is why many people view San Jose body wraps as also a way to detoxify, exfoliate, and firm the skin, making it perfect for that California sun tan.
Being one of the more popular spa treatments being offered in the state of California, San Jose body wraps can be a little heavy on the pocket. But regular body wrap sessions can bring benefits to the skin that can easily slash a few years off one's complexion, making the investment all the more worth every penny.
