Spa Finders

Learning more about beauty


The Ancients


Women and girls have enjoyed the pastime of beauty since the days of Ancient Egyptians and men just seem not to talk about it much.
In the ancient days, Egyptians used make up for aesthetics and therapeutic reasons according to http://www.nefertiti.iwebland.com/. The original combinations of metals, berries, water and henna were for both men and women. This civilization traveled across the oceans and deserts gathering products in trade as well they utilized the natural mineral resources an African commodity. The Hot baths and social baths were not uncommon to the Egyptians. H Heated oils and mud created for the hierarchy the first spas.
The Madame and The Dame





Much later, the kitchens of Europe and America bloomed of innovation and ingenuity. Madame C.J. Walker, American Beauty Chemist and Dame Roddick of “The Body Shop” are only two who went from their kitchen poverty to the sales counters bringing beauty and the Spa experience home to others.

Physical Health and The Social Scene joins in

In the 60’s and 70’s politicos threw off their bras and screamed they’d had enough racing to the outdoors. The smells and sounds of Nature created ambiances to gather peace and tranquility.
Twiggy toppled the scale beginning the “Thin is in” craze and fat farms warmed up and burned the excess arm and buttocks butter.
“Let’s Pump It up!” Mr. Olympia, Arnold Schwarzenegger made us all think, “yes, well sure we can look that way, or at least try.” Soon “Physical” blared through gym speakers, as sweat clad, Tee wearing; short-short enthusiast packed gyms and tried.
And now, with scores clubs abound, thousands of ways to get in shape, skin cures made of fruit and body wraps for everything. Spa Finders has it all…beautifully packaged in an easy to understand website.
Spa Lifestyle is the center of the Spa Finder learning experience.

Spa 101 is where The BastMeau will begin this web tour for spa beginners. “To the initiate, entering a spa for the first time can be a little intimidating. That’s why we’ve assembled a collection of time tested advice to guide you,” Says Spa Finder. On this page, there are 5 main areas:

1. Spa Etiquette
2. Glossary of Spa terms
3. Types of Spas
4. Spa History
5. Learn more about spas…join club spa!

Most would think going to a spa would resemble the experience of going on a cruise or to the health club…but checking with Spa Finder etiquette, we’ll there’s a little more to it than packing up and going. Here are a few tips:

· Don’t try to mix all the activities in on your spa retreat.

While some like to horseback ride, play golf and indulge in many activities, “On the day of treatment, try to stay out of the sun and avoid alcoholic beverages,” Spa finders warn.
· Receive treatments on weekdays or off peak hours you might get a discount.
· And if you like to go nude…well… it’s o.k.!

The Glossary of terms on the Spa 101 page covers traditional definitions such as acupressure and anti-aging. This vocabulary and term builder extends to more in-depth meanings of methodology too. Have you ever heard of Feldenkrais? It is used to restore physical function to a burdened or impaired body using intensive verbal and touch-therapy workshops designed to reorganize the body’s fundamental movements. So, you see how many would have guessed that answer.

Spa finder introduces the Website visitor to various spa types. How many spa types do you think you can identify? Resort/Hotel Spa: Sounds easy…Day Spa: Again, a spa many identify with but how about these: The Connoisseur Spa is the “Crème de la Crème” of spas…not the Cream de la Cream. It focuses on ambiance, accommodations, staff to guest ratio and exceptional service. And did you know there is such a thing as a Dental Spa?

The Spa History page gives in-depth explanations of the origins of many services and in the “Learn more about spas…join club spa” page, you can sign-up to get personal information on the best deals from various participating clubs.

Click on Spa at Home under the Spa Lifestyle and learn about resort food and various spa decors. Clicking through this section of the Spa Finder site makes you feel rich even if you aren’t. The Spa Insider is a Spa Q & A and read more from Susie Ellis spa enthusiast in her spa blog.

To rap it up Spa Finder offers Beauty and Fashion. This section is packed with more information than many libraries’. Sections feature articles about brands, trends, labeling, tips and more. For example try a quick and gentle scrub combination from http://www.farmaesthetics.com/ : Dried Sweet Milk, Fine Cornmeal, and Crushed Lavender buds. And did you know the best way to keep skin moist is Sugar Cane. Yes, Sugarcane is a natural source of Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA).

In Part 2, of this report on Spa Finder we’ll look at getting quick treatments. Pulling some of the available treatments from the Spa service menus, The BastMeau will view the clubs that have these services through the Spa Finder Website. Let’s see why you may want to choose these treatments. Until next time, thank you.
