Question From Mckensi

I recently did a full body exfoliation and seaweed body treatment. Our spa is a very small spa with no showers. After the client was taken out of the heated bed and I began to wipe the seaweed off, she complained of being very cold. Is there a technique I’m not aware of to keep the client warm? Thank you!!

 
There are several things you can do to keep your client warm during the product removal, first make sure you check the temperature of the room.  The room temperature should be comfortable for the guest not the service provider.  So, make sue that the AC is not blowing or blowing directly down on the guest.  Next make sure that you have a heated table.  You can use a twin size electric mattress cover or an electric blanket.  A solar blanket also helps to retain the clients body temperature.  When you go to wipe off the product only use hot towels.  Apply Wipe and then Apply and wipe again.  Cover the area cleaned with a fresh towel and solar blanket to keep it warm as you go.  Remember any area that is wet or damp will feel cold to the client.  Keep the feet warm with microwavable booties.
 
Hope these tips help.  If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.
