MASSAGE TREATMENTS
Salt Glow
Massage
A full-body exfoliation with mineral salt and oil that polishes the skin, stimulates circulation and leaves the body glowing. Often paired with steam.
01WHAT IT IS
Salt glow is a naturopathic skin treatment. Fine mineral salt mixed with oil is massaged over the body in circular strokes, removing dead skin, stimulating the circulation just below the surface and drawing warmth to the skin. A shower or steam follows, and the skin is left noticeably smoother.
It is used for dull or rough skin, sluggish circulation and as a refreshing start to a detox program.
