Body Polishing

A body polish is a treatment of the entire body, just like a facial and unlike a massage. It hydrates and exfoliates the skin. When the dead skin is removed, the skin becomes soft and smooth. It can be done with any type of material such as sugar, salt, rice bran, coffee grounds or pecan hulls, which are usually mixed with massage oil as well as essential oils. When salt is used for treating the skin then the treatment is known as salt glow, salt scrub or sea salt scrub. This treatment is usually completed with a shower and an application of lotion.

What are Its Benefits?

• Not just that, it will be more moisturized and hydrated than before the treatment.
