People knew how to get health from water in ancient Rome. In modern history, the spa has become a popular destination in the beauty industry, when people realized what benefits natural thermal springs can bring to beauty and health.
But even if the water in your bathroom is not mineral, there will still be benefits. And big.
A warm bath calms the nervous system, relaxes the muscles, promotes emotional relief.
Salts and oils added to the water fight inflammation, help moisturize and cleanse the skin.
The care that spa treatments provide has a great effect on the condition of the skin – it looks rested, fresh, toned.

Relaxing essential oils: cedar, fir, neroli, patchouli, sandalwood, geranium, ylang-ylang.
Scrub, peeling and skin mask.
Warm terry towel.

Home spa treatments
With a competent approach, a spa relaxation at home will differ from a salon one, except perhaps in the absence of a professional massage.
Bath
Fill the bath with water (the optimum temperature is 36-37 ° C), drip a few drops of oil or pour in herbal decoction. While taking a bath, you can read a book, but it is better to close your eyes and try to relax completely. So all subsequent procedures will be much more efficient.
Exfoliation
First of all, it’s nice: modern scrubs are fragrant, with a dessert-like texture. Secondly, it is good for the skin: exfoliation stimulates cell renewal, smoothes the skin, makes it velvety to the touch. When choosing a tool, be guided by your own needs and preferences.
One of the components of the spa program is body skin care: cleansing, exfoliation, moisturizing. © Healthy-Food
Classic scrubs with abrasive particles perfectly exfoliate rough skin on the elbows and feet, and work well as an anti-cellulite agent.
Body peels based on fruit acids act more gently.
Body. Pay attention to problem areas – these are the hips, stomach, hands, knees, heels. After the procedure, rinse the skin with warm water.
Face. Use a peeling mask: apply the composition, leave for a few minutes. Then splash the skin with water and gently massage with your fingers. Wash off with warm water.
Обертывание
When the pores are cleansed, the skin will have a second wind. It’s time to feed her with vitamins and antioxidants. The wrap improves tone and elasticity, reduces the appearance of cellulite, dryness, irritation.
For wrapping, products with clay, algae, honey are suitable.
Mask
A post-spa face mask is the best thing you can offer your skin. When choosing a product, start from the condition of the skin and current problems (acne, dry skin, blackheads).
A universal option for all skin types – a moisturizing mask with an antioxidant rejuvenating effect.
The final stage of the day spa
A face mask will make the skin velvety, and at the same time improve mood. © Healthy-Food
At the end of spa treatments, take a shower and be sure to apply a moisturizing or nourishing cream (or milk, mousse, balm) to your body. Pamper your face with a nourishing mask. Don’t be in a hurry to get back to business. A cup of green tea, silence and a favorite book – a spa day should end in a calm and relaxed way.
