Infrared Body Wrap

A couple of months ago I bought a promotional spa package to promote new services offered at On The Beach Day Spa in Toluca Lake. Today I went for my Infrared Body Wrap session. It was interesting, but I'm not quite sure I'm a believer. "The Formostar wrap will apply heat to the body and the heat will get underneath the fat tissue and the heat will thin the blood allow a much thinner blood to get into the areas where fat tissue is. Bringing the blood back in starts metabolism and the heat starts to soften the fat tissue. The fat tissue starts to break up and is then released back into the blood stream in the form of calories for you to burn up as energy. " They wrap you up (over your gym clothes) in these silcon feeling body wraps, and then turn up the heat. Honetly I don't feel or see a difference. At $100 a session I don't think I'll be signing up.

Facial Rejuvination

A couple of months ago I bought a promotional spa package to promote new services offered at On The Beach Day Spa in Toluca Lake. Today I had an appointment for a Lumiere Facial Rejuvination. "LED Skin Rejuvenation is the interaction of light, delivered through Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) at precisely 633 nanometers. This pure red light activates cell receptors causing them to produce collagen, elastin, and enzymes that are imperative to the skin's supportive structure. The result is a totally natural, non-ablative method for skin rejuvenation that helps minimize crow's feet, fine lines, wrinkles, reduce scar appearances, hyper-pigmentation, freckles, Rosacea and simply improves the overall appearance of the skin." My skin felt nice afterwards, but I am not convinced I saw any drastic improvements. A package of these Lumiere sessions is $849 for the Intensive Regime.....no thanks, I'd rather have Botox.

I am glad I only bought a promotional package for $55, because many of the services this spa offers seems a little hokey to me.
