Home Spa FAQ

Who should engage in a home spa ritual?

Spa rituals are for everyone!! Not only adult women but men and teenagers as well. Allowing yourself time to relax and unwind in the privacy of your own home is a luxury that you deserve.

How often should I undertake a home spa ritual?

You can do a home spa ritual every day if you so choose. The main point to consider is how much time you have each evening. If undertaking a spa treatment each night is cutting into your other activities and making you even more stressed then consider holding a spa treatment for yourself once or twice a week when things are not so hectic. Remember, a home spa ritual should leave you feeling relaxed and refreshed.

How long should an average spa routine take?

Most women (and some men) who undergo at home spa routines consider a half hour to forty-five minutes the perfect amount of time. Give yourself enough time to prepare, relax, and clean up. Don’t rush. Once you begin doing a spa treatment on a regular basis you’ll learn the ropes quickly and your time spent prepping and cleaning up will lessen and the time you have to relax and enjoy will increase.

What components should I include in my spa routine at home?

There are four crucial elements to consider when designing your personal at home spa treatment plan. Some nights you may have time for all four whereas other evenings you may only be able to engage in one or two.

  • Facial Hydrating Masque or Exfoliating treatment
  • Aromatherapy Bath
  • Moisturizing (body)
  • Moisturizing (hands, feet, elbows, face and neck)
  • Are there kits available with all of the necessary products for a home spa routine?

    Absolutely. Kits are great as they will save you time and energy shopping for individual products. Kits provide you a means to have everything you need at your fingertips in one easy to access case. Most kits include products for all of the above mentioned components along with other relaxing and refreshing items such as lavender pillows, aromatherapy scented candles and sometimes even CD’s or a robe. Here are a few great kits: SkinMedica Relaxation Kit, Skyn Iceland’s 5 Day Detox Kit for Stressed Skin, and Bliss Lemon + Sage Scrubs Deluxe Set.

    Can I make my own products?

    Yes, and quite easily, too. There are many books related to making your own home spa treatment products. You may also find a great deal of information via the internet and magazines.

    Are there health benefits associated with a routine spa treatment?

    Stress relief, relaxation and improved mental status are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the benefits that you will reap when you take time for yourself on a routine basis.

    What are the benefits of a home spa routine versus a professional spa treatment?

    For starters, you can undergo a home spa ritual anytime of the day or night when you do it yourself. No need to make an appointment or wait in line. Additionally, doing it yourself in the comfort of your own home will be less expensive and more meaningful.
