The one-hour session include stretches, a cool or warm Himalayan salt stone massage, along with a mini facial routine and a cool healing hands facial lymphatic massage. The Himalayan salt stones offers overall wellness for the body.
Containing 84 trace minerals, when heated the salt becomes a natural air purifier which helps to reduce the toxicity of electromagnetic frequencies emitted from all the electronics we are surrounded by.
