OraSpa is a complementary relaxation service our office is proud to offer to our patients. OraSpa promotes the “softer side of dentistry” in a relaxed environment to heal, nurture, and serve our patients. OraSpa is used to enhance the bridge for relaxation and oral health by stimulating the five senses which are; sight, sound, taste, touch, and smell. OraSpa therapies are a complementary service offered in our office by our certified OraSpa technicians: Tonda, our hygienist, Julie, one of our dental assistants, and Dr. Darr. This post is to help you learn more about this “softer side of dentistry”.

OraSpa uses Aromatherapy, Music Therapy, and Essential Oils to help make your dental experience more relaxing. Aromatherapy is the art and science of utilizing naturally extracted aromatic essences from plants to balance, harmonize, and promote the health of the body, mind and spirit. Music Therapy is used to reduce pain, anxiety, and nausea during dental treatments. Music is the only sense that can activate the brain simultaneously. Essential oils have been used for therapeutic purposes for nearly 6,000 years by the Chinese, Indians, Egyptians, Greek, & Romans. Essential oils are concentrated extracts taken from the roots, leaves, seeds, or blossoms of plants. Some oils are used to promote physical healing and some are used for their emotional value.

There are two types of OraSpa offered; DentalSpa, a comprehensive dental cleaning that includes relaxation techniques based on science and organic elements. Where as RestoraSpa is done during a filling or crown appointment where the focus is on diversional touch therapy in combination with warm and cold stone therapy. 

DentalSpa

DentalSpa is about you relaxing and enjoying the “softer side of dentistry”. Developed in 1986, it is a combination of essential oils, music, and touch therapy that brings you into a naturally conscious sedative state of mind, body, and spirit. 

You may be wondering what this will do for you?

DentalSpa promoted wellness, lowers blood pressure and it will give you another reason to look forward to your cleaning visit. DentalSpa will produce the most relaxing dental cleaning you will ever have. The DentalSpa takes the negative emotions, like fear and anxiety, and replaces them with therapeutic healing and purpose. Tonda looks forward to sharing this “softer side of dentistry” with you at your next cleaning. Be sure to ask about it when Tracy calls to confirm your 6 month appointment.

RestoraSpa

As mentioned above, RestoraSpa focuses on diversional touch therapy in combination with warm and cold stone therapy. Like the yin and yang, the marble stones are a natural balance to the dark ocean tumbled basalt stones. Basalt stones are used to warm and sedate the body while the use of hand-crafted, polished, white marble stones are used to deliver cooling temperatures to aid in decongestion, and to help push out fluids and wastes of the overworked, chronically tense or inflamed tissues. Diversional touch therapy is more than just another relaxing experience because it provides a number of therapeutic benefits such as; an increase in blood circulation, an increase of the body’s metabolism, and a decrease in tension and tissues stiffness. When used in conjunction with warm stones the effect is simply AMAZING!
