A body wrap is a skin care treatment that uses clays, oils, creams, and other natural products to eliminate toxins from the skin, improving its health and appearance. The treatment can also help give you a slimmer look. For these reasons, they are becoming one of the most popular services offered at day spas. The guide below looks further at this process and why it’s an excellent way to treat yourself.

What to Expect

When you get a body wrap at a day spa, you will lie down on a massage table while the Aesthetician exfoliates your skin with a dry brush or body scrub. Once all the dirt and dead skin have been removed, they will begin applying a rejuvenating mixture to your body. You will be lying on a thermal sheet which will produce heat to help lock in the treatment. After being wrapped up, a warm blanket will be placed on top of you, letting your body absorb the benefits of the ingredients for about 30 minutes  Then your Aesthetician will wipe off the solution and apply a moisturizer to your skin, or follow with a massage.

What Are the Benefits of Body Wraps?

Different body wraps serve different purposes. For example, if you deal with dry skin on a regular basis, you may benefit from a hydrating wrap, which uses gels and creams to deeply moisturize the skin.

If you want to look your best for a special event, like a beach vacation or wedding, you may want to get the slimming wrap. The detoxifying ingredients in these wraps can help you sweat out water and toxins to give you a more toned appearance. However, the effect is just temporary.
