Beat the Summer Heat: Cooling Massage Techniques for July

Why You Need Cooling Relief in Summer

Excess heat and humidity can lead to:

  • Swelling and inflammation

  • Overheated muscles and skin

  • Fatigue and sluggish circulation

  • Irritability and poor sleep

Our spa treatments are designed to combat these symptoms while offering deep relaxation and hydration.

1. Lymphatic Drainage Massage

This light-pressure technique stimulates the flow of lymphatic fluid, helping the body reduce excess water retention, inflammation, and sluggish circulation.
Perfect for:

  • Clients who feel puffy or swollen in the summer heat

  • Travelers recovering from long flights

  • Anyone looking for a gentle yet deeply cleansing massage

You’ll leave feeling lighter, clearer, and more at ease—without the pressure of traditional deep tissue.

2. Peppermint Oil Aromatherapy

We infuse our treatments with doTERRA’s pure peppermint essential oil, known for its natural cooling, anti-inflammatory, and energizing properties.

Just a few drops during your massage can:

  • Cool the skin instantly

  • Awaken tired muscles and senses

  • Ease tension headaches and summer fatigue

3. Yoga Balm Add-On: Deep Relief with a Cooling Kick

Enhance your massage with our Yoga Balm add on, a powerful blend of menthol, camphor, and essential oils like eucalyptus and lavender.
Applied directly to key tension areas (neck, shoulders, lower back), it:

  • Deepens muscle relief

  • Provides a lasting cooling sensation

  • Supports breath, mobility, and circulation

Add it to any treatment for a refreshing finish that lasts long after you leave the table.
