Tips On How To Make Your Own Spa Heat Wraps

By Essie Osborn


When you make a body wrap, the fist thing that you must bear in mind is to take time in the preparation. This step would include your time for shopping of the necessary products to use. This might even last up to few days and do not make this on the last minute.

There are not instant packages of these in stores which you could use immediate without much preparation but it is also possible to make one. Spa heat wraps are primarily prepared with the use of rolls of bandages which are elastic and of different sizes and a typical adult may need up to fifteen of them. They can now be bought in a pharmacy or you may order directly from medical supply stores.

The next matter that you should know about is that it would be best if you would use some large safety pins because they will make your work faster. The bandages already include in them clips which can be used also in fastening. You can obtain the pins in a store or you may already have those in the sewing kit.

Moreover, you would also need to buy the solution or if you want to, you can formulate your own and start by knowing the necessary ingredients. Most of these would depend on your aroma therapeutic preferences. You will also be able to adjust the contents based on what you want or your needs if you make your own.

One more object that you have to obtain is the sweat suit made up of PVC which is a rubber like material that can be bought in most sporting good shops. You would not be paying a lot for this because of its inexpensive price and this is great in promoting sweat when you do activities such as jogging. This can also be fastened by velcro or even by strings.

Then, you would have to turn on the heat inside the home with your heating system or you could bring a portable heater in your bathroom. This would be necessary because you might feel a little chilly when you apply the piece. This will also keep you out of the drafts which cause the chills.

You would then be ready to get all the things together for the wrapping so that you will be able to complete the whole set up. You may also get some books to ready which can preoccupy you when you wait while the application is being done. Then, the solutions you got would be mixed all together with hot water.

The mixed solution should then be poured into a bucket which should be enough for the soaking of the bandages. To avoid burning your skin, you may add cooler water or adjust the temperature of the tub. Then do the soaking until the ingredients would be absorbed and then remove one wet wrap at a time.

Furthermore, wrapping these on your body should be tight enough but not too much to impede blood circulation. In applying on your legs, start with one leg and then end on the knee and do this with the other leg too. Be sure that no skin will be left exposed.
