* Rhassoul is a clay mined from beneath the
shafts of the Atlas Mountains. It has detoxifying, cleansing,
degreasing, and astringent properties. You can find it in most
natural food stores or replace it with regular green clay, also
found at natural food stores.
To Prepare Your Clay:
Mix the distilled water and honey
together. Warm the honey in the microwave first if it is too
stiff. Add the essential oils, and then add the clay and sea
salt. Stir well until you create a nice and loose paste.
Routine For Your Massage Room:
Prepare four bath towels by dampening
them and placing them into a crockpot set to low heat.Cover your
massage table with two of the warmed blankets. Place a plastic
sheet on top on which your client can lay down. Suggest that
your client wear either a two-piece bathing suit or have a disposable
bikini for the treatment.
Spread the paste evenly all over
the front and back of the body. Have your client lie face up
and wrap her or him with the plastic sheet and blankets. Leave
the upper chest opened to allow your client to breathe more easily
and feel more comfortable. The body wrap should last 30 minutes,
during which you can massage the scalp and face with accupressure
points.
Open the blankets and sheet and
use the warmed towels to remove the paste. Please test the temperature
of the towel on yourself using your client.
