Benefits of Detox Steam And Massage Treatment
When you opt for a detox steam and massage from milk + honey, you’ll know from the description that it includes a body brushing, our signature massage with a delightful blend of rosemary, echinacea, eucalyptus, and geranium essential oils, and, of course, a steam treatment. But what are the benefits of steam, and why should you choose the detox steam and massage over any other body treatment to begin with?
While the menus and brochures from your favorite spa might provide the information you need to make a decision, chances are you’ll still have questions about your treatment prior to your appointment. What should you wear? What happens when you walk into the treatment room? Will your massage therapist leave you alone in the room? If it’s your first time, your questions and (and maybe a little apprehension) are completely understandable.
Ahead, we take a look at milk + honey’s Detox Steam and Massage. We’ll talk about the benefits of steam for your body (and why you may want to consider adding this treatment highlight to your spa experience), and we’ll also walk you through the process so you’ll know exactly what to expect when it’s time for your appointment.
Benefits of Steam for Your Body
Body steaming releases impurities and supports the immune system. Additionally, it triggers a “thermoregulating” effect in your body where the blood vessels in your skin dilate and stimulate your circulation. With improved blood flow comes a fresh delivery of nutrients and oxygen to your skin cells, and this imparts a healthy glow to your skin. Moreover, hot steam has the added benefit of warming and relaxing your muscles.What to Expect During Your Detox Steam + Massage Treatment
To give you some insight into your detox steam and massage body treatment, we caught up with James Curry, Head of the Massage Department at the Austin Arboretum Market. James walks us through this spa service from beginning to end. Step 1: You’ll walk into the steam treatment room, and your massage therapist will spend some time chatting with you to figure out why you’re there. He/she will determine if you have any contraindications for the treatment, such as:- Pregnancy
- High blood pressure
- Heart disease
- Burns
