Getting a spa treatment is one of the most relaxing

things you can do for your mind and body. There are

many types of treatments that most people have no

idea exist. There are some for relaxing and others for

pain and headaches. Other treatments combine

many different techniques for overall health.

Massage

A massage treatment can include

various different methods. There are

Swedish Massages, which involved

soft kneading and round movements

to work out stressed or knotted

muscles. A Deep Tissue massage is

for those that have chronic sore or

overexerted muscles. This massage

will help loosen the muscles and

increase flexibility.

Hot Stone Massage

A Hot Stone Massage is when hot

stones are placed on your body to help

loosen tight muscles. It warms the body

and helps circulation and eases stiff

muscles. This is usually a Swedish

massage with the addition of the hot

stones. Make sure to let your masseuse

know if the stones are too hot.

facial is the European Facial, that includes deep-cleansing and hydrating the face.

Some facial are specifically designed for men and irritated skin from shaving.

exfoliate with the intention of

minimizes fine lines and

wrinkles. The end result is

Acupuncture/Acupressure

People who receive acupuncture

treatments are usually looking

for pain relief and to treat certain

health conditions. The idea

behind acupuncture is that it

helps the flow of the energy

throughout the body by inserting

fine needles into particular areas

of the body where pain is

present. Acupressure is similar,

except instead of needles, it

involved finger placement.

Aromatherapy

Aromatherapy is combined with many of the

previous treatments. Highly concentrated

essential oils extracted from plants are

placed on the body or around the body and

when the smell is inhaled, it can stimulate

the nervous system to the part of the brain

that controls feelings. It helps with anxiety

and depression.
