Wellness Goes Beyond the Occasional Massage and Into Your Home.

Why is home care so important?

There are many reasons to go to a spa: to relieve stress, release muscle tension, promote skin health and youthful glow, mental wellness and youthful glow, mental wellness and just to take some revitalizing time for you. What many people miss out on is the fact that with some home care support, all of these benefits can be enhanced and the positive outcome extended.

A quality scented candle may seem like an unnecessary splurge, but when used as a center point for relaxation, the aroma can put to rest an overactive nervous system. Its warm glow invites you to take a few deep breaths, flooding much needed oxygen to your brain and muscles while the ambiance created can cultivate a sense of home and security. So you see, sometimes a candle is so much more than just a candle. It's all in what you allow it to be.

The same holds true with body products. Used on a regular basis, they not only nourish our skin and relax our muscles, they remind us to take the time to take care of ourselves. Every being is worthy of vital care, and at-home nurturing is a wonderful method of restoring the body while calming the mind.

Helpful Tips for Fitting Home Care into Your Day:

· Place purchased home care products beautifully on display where you will be using them so that they won't be forgotten. It can take up to three months for a new habit to be formed, so this is a good way to remind yourself that you are worth two to ten minutes of "me time" every day.

· Set your watch or phone alarm to a certain time every day and make that your moment to stop what you're doing and focus on you. This is a perfect way to start using a still point inducer or remembering to take two minutes to heat up a neck pillow and use it.

· Take a bath at night. You can multi-task while drawing the water and setting up, but once you slip in, devote 10 minutes to skin care. Those 10 minutes at least two days per week can make a world of difference for your skin and your outlook on life.

· Don't feel guilty about taking care of you! A happier, healthier you is a gift you give to yourself AND others.
We're often asked our opinion on what "the best" products are. In truth, we take great care in presenting you what we think is the best researched, highest quality, most effective and environmentally friendly products available today. Individual needs, physical and mental, vary so it is hard to say what "the best" products are.
What might give you some inspiration is a list of our top ten products. We hope they provide the inspiration that carries you into your very own home care routine.

 

The Spa's Top Ten Body Products:

1. Mountain Body Scrubs. Mountain glow mineral salt scrubs detoxify, exfoliate and moisturize all at the same time.

Want a quick pick up on a hot summer day? Sit on the edge of your tub with your feet and legs bare up to your knees. Use your Mountain Body Scrub from the tip of your toes all the way to your knees. Rub slowly in rhythmic circles as you work your way up to your knee. Rinse with warm water and thoroughly dry with the fluffiest towel you have. Perfect for an after work revitalizer!

 

2. Mountain Body Aromatherapy Bath Teas. Slip into a tub with one of these teas and create a state of physical and mental rest.

3. Sonoma Lavender Bath Salts. Detoxify your body while you ease tension, headaches and body pain.

4. Sonoma Lavender Neck Pillows and Blankets. Enjoy the relaxing scent of lavender and provide moist heat to warm the body and relax your mind.

5. Tara Spa Aromatherapy Neck Pillows and Uni-Packs. These provide just the right amount of weight to ensure muscle relaxation, relieving stiffness and warming muscles with soothing moist heat and aromatherapy. Don't let these sit in your closet! Use them on your way to work, at your desk, while reading or watching T.V.  The effects are amazing when used often.

6. Still Point Inducers. This seemingly over-simple device actually helps ease neck pain, headaches, enhance your immune system efficiency and provides deep relaxation by balancing the nervous system. Use just before bed if you have trouble falling asleep at night.

7. Biofreeze. This pain relieving gel also cools muscles, which prevents inflammation. Our massage therapists use it in most every massage to reduce swelling and promote faster healing.

8. Biotone Muscle and Joint Cream with Arnica and Boswellin. Warms and penetrates deep into sore joints and muscles, relieves pain and promotes healing.

 

9. "The Daily Relaxer" by New Harbinger publications. A book of "Soothing guided meditations for deep relaxation anytime, anywhere."  Perfect for your purse or book bag.

10. Emily's Garden Bath Salts. This Sore Muscle Bath Soak eases stiffness, calms anxiety and stimulates circulation, which promotes skin heath and a youthful look.
