A Soy candles massage is a wonderful warming and relaxing treatment using Swedish techniques to stretch, work and relax the muscles. This unique treatment uses a special Soy Oil based candle that heats the oil to a warm temperature that can then be poured onto the skin and massaged in. It really is a great treatment for women and men as it hydrates the skin and gives warmth to relieve stress or aches and pains.
As candle massages are not quite so common as treatments like Hot Stones etc, I thought I’d give you ten fascinating facts about Soy candles to help you see the benefits!
- Soy oil absorbs easily into the skin which makes it a great medium for massage.
- Soy oil is high in vitamin E which the skin requires
- Your skin is left feeling nourished, hydrated, soft and rejuvenated after the massage.
- Soy oil feels rich and decadent and can replace the expensive cosmetic creams and lotions that may not actually be as ‘natural’ as you think.
- Soy oil has been reported to potentially help relieve conditions such as dry and cracked skin, psoriasis, eczema, cracked heels and rough cuticles.
- Very little soot is produced from burning soy candles
- Soy candles are believed to have healing and soothing properties making your skin feel enriched and soft.
- Massage candles made of soy oil are specially designed to be used on the body.
- The ‘wax’ melts to a temperature not far from body temperature but feels warm and luxurious on the skin
