"In this clip we're going to talk about the purpose and what products are used during the salt glow treatment. The purpose of the salt glow treatment is to remove any dry or rough skin and that's usually why people book them. Usually people feel dryness around their elbow or the back of the arm. This is always a problem for women and men also. So, in this treatment, we're able to target that and really smooth out the skin, especially if you're going to go to a party or something like that. The products used in this treatment can vary, so you always want to double check. Some places use just table salt, however, here we're using dead sea salt, which contains a lot of sea minerals, which are very toxifying for the body. We mix it with the oil and the essential oils and it provides a lot of detoxifying effects for the body. Besides, just smoothing the skin, it also will affect the digestion and also, will calm the soul. So, a it's really royal treatment."
