Fall is a good time to take a look at revamping your body treatment menu. To help clients nourish and prepare summer skin for cooler weather. If you’re looking to change or expand your menu, try one of these spins on body basics.

thai herbal massage

Add an exotic twist to a massage by using Thai Herbal Balls. This massage, employed in traditional Thai medicine, is used to provide the same stimulation as acupressure along the energy channels. Each herbal ball is soaked and steamed, then pressed along the body in a series of specific motions. It can also be used in conjunction with Swedish or traditional Thai massage.

green massage

If you’re striving to be environmentally-friendly in the spa, you might have a hard time finding an organic massage cream or oil that gives good slip. Biotone, which makes an extensive collection of different massage potions, has just launched their Pure Touch Organics Massage Crème. It’s hypo-allergenic, unscented and paraben-free. For more, go to www.biotone.com.

pumpkin, spice and everything nice

Try swapping out your citrus-y (and summery) scented products throughout the spa, in favor of warm or spicy scents like cinnamon, vanilla, brown sugar and pumpkin. Stock up your retail section with Repêchage’s mouth-watering Pomegranate Cran-Apple All Over Body Scrub and Lamas Beauty’s 3-in-1 Pumpkin Spice Polish cleanser.

bronzed beauties

Help your clients maintain their summer tans through autumn by offering sunless-tanning treatments and stocking self-tanning lotions in your retail boutique. Applying tanning lotion on dry, chapped skin will have uneven results. Suggest a deep-exfoliating product to clients who opt to “tan” at home.
