Spas Monmouth County NJ
Spa treatments are the services that a spa provides. The most popular spa treatment in the United States, by far, is massage. It has been around for thousands of years and has a number of health benefits. Other popular spa treatments include facials and body treatments like salt glows and body wraps.
Massage
The two most popular massages are Swedish massage and deep tissue massage. Swedish massage typically covers the whole body with firm strokes but without much deep, focused work. Deep tissue massage massage will use firmer pressure and also include focused work on areas that are especially tight.
Another massage offering on most menus is an aromatherapy massage, which uses essential oils to achieve different purposes, most commonly relaxation. Sometimes the oils are created by companies to achieve different effects, and the therapist asks you to smell a few different oils to find out which one most appeals to you.
Facials
Facials are the second most popular spa treatment. Sometimes there are so many choices that it’s hard to decide: Do you book the anti-aging facial, a European facial or the deep-cleansing facial?
Body Treatments
Body treatments are an under-rated spa service, because people tend to think they can do it themselves at home. Of course you can, but it won’t be as thorough, effective or relaxing. The basic body scrub exfoliates your outermost, dead skin cells with a salt scrub (rougher), a sugar scrub (gentler) or some other exfoliant, like coffee grounds or fruit enzymes that gently loosen the inter-cellular bonds. It is usually followed by a shower and an application of lotion.
