Benefits of Massage

If you are looking for an alternative method to relax, heal and help release emotions and tensions without the aid fo medication, you should consider having a MASSAGE. The power of touch has miraculous effects, whether you are young or old, sedentary or athletic, busy stay-at-home or tensed executive. As long as you do not have any serious health conditions, this alternative therapy may be the right treatment for you.

Due to a busy schedule, it is often that you hear yourself or someone you know say that you need a massage but just haven't got the time to go for one! But nowadays, there are many little handheld massage accessories on the market which could help without too much effort.

These convenient massagers provide gentle relief to aching backs, neck, shoulders and other parts where there is tension, stress, injury or pain. They help reduce the build up of toxins and increase the circulation of blood. Many body massagers are comfortable to hold, will reduce fatigue of the hands & can be used directly on clothing.

At The Soap Boutique we stock a wide range of classic wooden massagers made from sustainable Hemu wood. Our selection includes roller ball hand massagers, body massagers, foot massagers, and cellulite massagers. They make great gifts for loved ones, great treats after a busy day and great fun when added to massage oils for a sensual experience!!

Benefits of Himalayan Pink Salts

Despite what you might have been led to believe, SALT is equally as important to the human body as WATER. As long as you are drinking enough water, salt is absolutely essential for the body to generate energy, maintain good blood chemistry, balance the correct amount of water in blood and cells, aid digestion and allow the nervous system and muscles to function normally.

Without salt we would not be able to think nor act!

The 84 mineral particles and trace elements (such as copper, potassium, magnesium, calcium and iron to name a few) in Pink Salt are totally natural and very easily assimilated. Because of this, Himalayan Pink Crystal Salt is one of nature’s most effective natural balancers.

The best way to experience the profound cleansing properties of this salt is to drink SOLE (solay). Sole is a 1% water/salt solution (the same as our blood, tears and the ocean). In addition pink salt can also be sprinkled over food or directly added to water to aid rehydration.

Pink Crystal Salts help to restore and balance the bodies energy by eliminating toxins, rebalance acid-alkaline levels, dissolve and release crystallised deposits, help breakdown heavy metals such as mercury from dental fillings and cadium from smoking and everyday pollution, help keep the nervous system and muscles working correctly. A little bit of research will give you a long long list of benefits with simple use... Here are only a few:

  • Flush sinuses to prevent runny and congested noses and sinus infections

  • Use as an eye bath to restore moisture to dry eyes

  • Use in a warm cleansing bath - has the same detoxifying effect as a three day fast

  • Add to home made beauty masks or scrubs to rejuvenate and treat skin, joints and cellulite

If you wish to benefit from these truly marvellous salts, The Soap Boutique offers Natural Himalayan Pink Salts by the weight, even in small amounts of 100gr!
