Detox Massage

We offer detox massage of 60 minutes for $70.

Detox massage combines an aromatherapy blend with a vigorous Swedish massage to increase the detoxing of your body. The detox massage will be faster paced than a regular wellness massage. You will possibly feel more awakened and invigorated than sleepy and “melted” as with a slower massage paced. This massage is a full body massage addressing the back, neck, legs and feet, arms and hands, and abdomen. Certain essential oils can help stimulate your lymph system which is the system that processes everything, toxins, viruses, etc. It is your garbage system. By stimulating your lymph system with massage and essential oils you can help it along to do its job that much more completely.

Why choose a detox massage? In our modern world we encounter a plethora of toxins in the air, person products and most importantly, our food and water. Our bodies can become overwhelmed with toxins. Once this happens our body becomes weaker and is more likely to develop a serious illness. It is in our best interest to do a detox of some sort at least once a year. A wonderful addition to a fast or another type of detoxing with food/juice etc, would be to get a detoxing massage! Simply by increasing circulation you can help your body process all the nasty stuff it’s been storing. Aside from that, getting one’s abdomen massaged is a great way to help along your digestion and the expelling of some of those nasty bits. Abdominal massage done in the direction of digestion can help the colon expel it’s wastes more easily. While detoxing it is important to make sure that what you are processing can get out. The toxins are expelled through the colon and also through the skin. If you skin is unhealthily buried beneath layers of dead skin cells, it can’t expel the wastes it needs to through the skin as efficiently or completely. One of the very basic things massage does is to help slough off dead skin cells and expose newer skins cells in the process.

A detox massage is an excellent addition to any cleansing you might be doing for your body’s health.

Something to consider: if you do research about cleansing or detoxing, you may find reference to a “healing crisis”. It may include feeling tired, slightly nauseated, even feverish. (They can be the same feelings you have when you are getting a cold or ‘flu.) This is your body processing out toxins in your body. In the process, it may have even processed a virus or bacteria it found. This can also happen with a detox massage. Simply make sure you stay warm, drink enough fluids(mostly water) and rest. If you are worried, or it doesn’t resolve itself in a day or so contact your doctor. It’s best to call and ask questions than to sit a home and worry. Worry is not good for your health!
