In your total detox regimen, another thing you can add is regular visits to the spa. Getting a regular body massage, skin treatments and other services using natural means are some of the things that can help in your detoxification.
All diseases start in the mouth – this is the theory behind the oil pulling therapy. Another alternative for those people who considers detoxification.
Oil Pulling Therapy uses edible oil, whether sunflower oil or virgin coconut oil and swishing a tablespoon inside the mouth for 20 minutes. The theory is that the oil magnetizes the toxins out of the body. Pulling the bad elements off our body when you spit it out.
If you are looking for an effective organic soap, beauty soap, germicidal soap and a medicinal soap then what you need is the Organic Thanakha Soap because it has all these characteristics. Its main ingredient is taken from the Thanakha which is a tree that smoothens and beautifies the skin and is a phytochemical, is antibacterial, antifungal and is anti-aging because it is an alternative to eye creams that claim to have the same effects.
The Organic Thanakha Soap which is an organic, beauty, germicidal and medicinal soap rolled into one, contains(GSH) Glutathione and Rose Hips oil. With its powerful content but mild action, it effectively removes scars, moisturizes dry skin, helps in treatment of burns, and removes stretch marks using natural ingredients.
The cost of the soap is P150 (PHP) or about $3.50 (USD) and is also available in paste form at the cost of P750 (PHP) or $16.50 (USD) and is distributed in the Philippines by my wife through her website KikayCorner.net. For orders, you can visit her site. You can also find information about Thanakha paste and the Organice Thanakha Soap in her site.
If you haven’t heard of Oil Pulling, then you are fortunate enough to bump into this post which will talk about this method of detoxification. This is a detox method or therapy that has a few simple steps.
First, to start this detoxification method called Oil Pulling, one must start the day, first thing in the morning, when the stomach is still empty and no other liquid including water has been taken yet, by taking one tablespoon of oil, sesame, sunflower or whatever oil is preferred, and putting the tablespoon of oil in the mouth.
The second step is to gargle or swish the oil in the mouth without swallowing. Do the gargling as if the oil is a mouth wash but do not tilt your head back and gargle in your throat. As this is done, the oil will get more watery as saliva is naturally produced and added to the oil.
This Oil Pulling should be done for at least twenty minutes as the oil-saliva mixture becomes thicker. This mixture then will start to pull out toxins from the body.
After the twenty minute period is up, spit out the mixture. It is recommended that it is spat into the toilet bowl due to the mixtures toxicity. The next step is to rinse the mouth with warm water, a mouth wash, or a diluted hydrogen peroxide to remove the toxins left in the mouth.
All these steps are very simple. And that is what Oil Pulling is - another way detoxification.
Based on some of my experiences in my spa visits, I have thought about some things that I have found important in choosing a good spa.
First is the cleanliness of the restrooms. Most new spas today boast of new facilities that have very clean tiles, designs, nice faucets and overall interior design of the restrooms. But these aesthetics mean nothing if they are not well maintained.
Second is the access from the restroom to the massage room. For those who want privacy, choose spas that have a different access for ladies and for men to and fro the restrooms and massage rooms. Most spas have a common room available for each gender. For those who prefer a more private massage, some extra cash can be paid to upgrade.
These are just a few things that I have noticed. More entries will be posted about some important things to look for in a good spa place.
