Dry Body Brushing

Body brushing is a simple treatment that can have amazing health benefits. It can remove impurities from your skin and improve circulation in your body. The treatment involves a thorough brushing of the skin all over your body using a clean brush with firm, natural bristles. Your therapist will brush your skin with sweeping and sometimes circular motions, beginning at your feet and working in the direction of your heart.

The treatment requires a firm touch in order to receive the benefits; however it should not be painful. Similar to a full body massage, you should feel free to advise your therapist if you prefer a gentler or firmer touch. Most therapists appreciate having the chance to adapt the treatment to your specific needs and preferences.

Dry brushing may be performed prior to a massage or full body wrap. This will help to slough away dead skin and other impurities and increase your blood flow so you can benefit more deeply from the treatment that follows.
