Top Secret Spa Recipe

Spa is a very common word now. Everywhere you can read the hoardings with the word spa. Spa facilities are available almost everywhere from a beauty salon to a cruise ship. Spa clubs are there. Hotels also have special arrangements of spa. But what exactly is a spa? Spa is a curative mineral spring.

People in prehistoric times used to travel to cold and hot springs to cure their ailments.
Many people believe that bathing in a specific spring or river results in physical as well as spiritual purifications.

In all the religions—Hinduism, Islam, Christianity and Buddhism—there are rituals to purify one’s body and spirit through water. It’s due to the purifying and healing property of water.

Spa has another meaning also. It means a resort or a place of treatment.  These days, people go to spas for leisure also. Going to spas has become a status symbol for some.

These days, spa treatments provide facials and other body treatments like body wraps.

Here’s a great spa recipe:

The Paraffin Wax Treatment

Paraffin wax, also known as baker’s wax, is a chemical preservative. Paraffin is added to the chocolate candies to give them a nice glossy look and to keep the candies solid even at the room temperature.

The foot paraffin treatment not only relaxes your foot but adds glow to your foot too.

You need only a moisturizer, 4 bars of paraffin wax and plastic wrap.

Follow these six simple steps and see the results.

a) Melt the paraffin wax bars in a micro-oven.

b) Massage your foot with the moisturizer.

c) Dip your feet one by one into the melted wax three times. Take pauses in between to allow the layers to dry.

d) To penetrate the moisturizer, wrap each foot tightly with the plastic wrap.

e) Leave it for 20 minutes.

f) Now remove the wrap and peel the wax off.

It’s easy to spa at home, isn’t it? You can repeat the same procedure for the hand treatment also. You can share this recipe with your friends who don’t like to spend much money on spas.
