What is a scrub?

A scrub or body polish is a spa treatment which exfoliates the skin on your body leaving it feeling fresh, smooth, moisturised and soft. Firstly we select a massage oil tailored to your scrub. We warm the skin and muscles with a mini Massage. This is followed by your exfoliation.  An abrasive product (sugar or salt scrub) is rubbed vigorously, and massaged across and into your skin, and is then cleansed away with warm fragrant towels to reveal a moisturised layer of fresh, clean and smooth skin. We use hot exfoliating mitts to complete your skin glow and use a  dry brush the body to invigorate and Stimulate Your Lymphatic System, Exfoliation, Increase Circulation, Reduce Cellulite, Stress Relief, Improve Digestion and Kidney Function. We complete your Full Body Scrub with a moiserising body polish.

What is a scrub good for?

There are many benefits to a body scrub or polish. A body scrub will exfoliate your skin, sloughing off dead skin cells and rubbing away hard and flaky skin, leaving it feeling soft and smooth. Scrub or polishing products usually include an oily base which moisturises and soothes your skin as it is scrubbed.

A scrub can be really invigorating as well, and improve the circulation of blood and lymph to the surface of the skin, helping to fight cellulite and improve your skin tone.

A good body scrub or polish forms the basis of other body treatments

• it prepares your skin for an even tan

• it opens the pores and wakens the skin before a wrap or mud treatment

• the oils used can relax or stimulate your senses ready for any similarly-focused treatment that you might be having afterwards.

Before you go

There's nothing to do before you go except have a shower. This is really just courtesy for your therapist! You will be able to keep your knickers on, and they may give you disposable pants.
