When your time (or budget) won't allow a visit to the spa, you can create your own peaceful getaway in the comfort of your bathroom. With specially selected products you can achieve deep relaxation and a "spa glow" with smooth, softly scented skin. To create the ambiance and setting for a Serenity Home Spa Treatment you will need:
- thick towel
- candles
- mesh sponge or loofah
- natural soap or body wash
- aromatherapy bath salts
- sheabutter or olive oil lotion
Prepare the bathroom by lighting aromatherapy candles and turning off the lights. The soft glow of candles creates a peaceful setting for your spa experience.
Sprinkle aromatherapy bath salts into the tub before turning on the faucet. Great choices for relaxing spabaths include those blended with stress relieving essential ois including lavender, geranium and jasmine.Select a bath salt that contains epsom salts or dead sea salts. These natural salts are wonderful forrelieving aching muscles and stress. Next, close the bathroom door and turn on the faucet to fill the tub with warm water. Closing the bathroom door allows the essence ofessential oils contained in the bath salts to fill the air as they are released by running water as the tub fills.
Step into the tub and soak for several minutes. The combination of the bath salts and essential ois workto soak away stiffness, aches and stress and promotes deep relaxation. After you have been soaking for several minutes and your skin has been softened this is the perfect time to lather your sponge for an exfoliating body scrub. Using circular motions scrub your entire body to get rid of dull, dry skin. After scrubbing and cleansing your body, drain the water from the tub as you lay back and relax. As the bath water drains envision your tension, aches and pains leaving and going down the drain. Next, turn on the faucet and rinseyour body with tepid (barely warm) water. This removes any bath salt residue and dead skin cells left from your exfoliating scrub and bath soak. Carefully stand and blot skin dry as you wrap yourself in a large thick towel. Moisturize skin with a creamy shea butter or olive oil lotion.
Your are now deeply relaxed. Your skin feels velvety soft and glows with healthy radiance. Now you can enjoy the benefits of a relaxing spa treatment in the comfort of your home. With a few natural bath products and about an hour, you can recharge your body and spirit, and bring a healthy glow to your skin whenever you want to pamper yourself with a luxurious spa retreat.
