In Torquay, our day spa packages run with many treatment combinations but this week we’re highlighting the body mud wrap. A wrap is a nourishing cocoon designed to, hydrate, cleanse or heal your skin, or relax and soothe your muscles. Whilst your here in Torquay you may want to know what a wrap is good for?
Body wraps combine therapeutic masks- herbal pastes, mineral rich muds or soothing creams- with thermal coverings. Our native clay mud contains essential oils of Ylang Ylang, native Mandarin, Sandalwood and Macadamia nut oil ( we do have nut and seed free also for those allergies ). All designed to have a remedial effect on the skin, promoting cleansed skin that’s softer and hydrated whilst relaxing the muscles.
What to expect from a Cocoon treatment?
You’ll undress or change into disposable underwear that is provided in privacy. Our spa therapists are professional at preserving our clients modesty. Next, you will be treated to a gentle exfoliation or scrub to slough away the dead skin-cells. Once your skin has been prepped, your therapist will apply the therapeutic body mud mask to your legs, arms and torso. You will then be swaddled in warmth for around 20mins.
When you’re freed from your cocoon, you might feel quite cold and soggy at first without the blankets but this is very brief. So the warm shower afterwards will be welcome. You can scrub away any remaining clay before your therapist massages an oil rich moisturiser into your newly soft-skin.
Hot Tip!
Being wrapped up in thermal blankets can feel strange so as with most of our day spa packages where wraps are involved opt to have a mini facial treatment whilst your drifting off to accompany the scalp massage!
