Universal Massage Spa Party

When applied to the skin, Paraffin Wax adds moisture and continues to boost moisture capability. It is a natural emollient, a mineral oil, and can help open pores and remove dead skin cells.

The therapeutic benefits are numerous. Pain relief can be found with conditions such as arthritis, fibromyalgia, osteoarthritis, and rheumatoid arthritis. Paraffin decreases stiffness and swelling, increasing circulation, mobility, and flexibility. It has been found to minimize muscle spasms and inflammation, as well as treat sprains.

With a low melting point, the chance for burn or blister injury is minimal. If you have sensitive skin, there is the chance of heat rash (small, itchy, red bumps). Paraffin has petroleum products; those with chemical sensitivity should use caution. Individuals with the following conditions should NOT use Paraffin: low blood circulation, diabetes, peripheral neuropathy (numbness in hands/feet), and/or any rash or open sores.

Many of us love a good, hot towel; what's the science behind it? A Hot Towel Treatment can benefit you differently depending on where you place it. 

On the face or chest, a HT can relieve sinus pressure and congestion associated with allergy or illness, along with opening pores and softening skin. Inhaling the steam itself can open nasal passages, loosen mucous, and relieve inflammation.

Applying a HT on the torso lessens muscular tension, soreness, and induces relaxation. When moving onto the limbs, using a HT will have the same effects as the torso along with a decrease of joint stiffness and pain, and increase of circulation.

For the LMT, using a HT on a client allows the therapist to work on the deeper layers of muscle with ease. Heat penetrates and 'melts' muscle, aiding the LMT in their job.

The Universal Massage Spa Party has a few less extras than our other selection to accommodate for more people. Guests will remain fully clothed as no lubricant will be used for this service. Drinking flutes will be set out with music and a diffuser prepped with an essential oil. The last touch? Fresh cucumber slices for ultimate relaxation. During the Hot Towel Treatment, the LMT will place a slice on each eyelid.

Cucumber slices on the eyelids aren't just a movie myth; they reduce puffiness and inflammation, tighten pores, hydrate the skin, provide a cooling sensation, and create a glow, eliminating dark circles. 

It's up to you if you make it a snack afterward!
