So we do this really cool treatment called a hot oil deluxe body scrub and honestly? It's one of our favorite things to do for our clients. We take these really nice oils like jojoba and sweet almond oil and warm them up until they're just perfect, not too hot, not too cold.
The whole thing starts with a massage and then we do this thing called dry brushing which feels kind of tingly in a good way. After that, we use sea salt mixed with our warm oils to scrub away all the yucky dead skin. It is like lymphatic facial and skin treatment for your whole body. You´re going to love how soft everything feels after!
First we do light massage and dry brushing with these soft brushes that wake up your skin. It's an old technique that gets rid of dead skin on top and helps your body's circulation. We brush in special patterns that follow how your body naturally works, and most people say it feels really relaxing and energizing at the same time.
Then comes the best part of our custom scrub! We pick the right one based on what your skin needs. We use fine sea salt to mineralize your muscles and skin, helping a hydrated glow and relax state afterward.
We add our warm oils to the mix, and depending on what you like, we might use lavender if you want to relax, eucalyptus if you need energy, or chamomile if your skin is sensitive.
When we are doing the actual scrubbing, we use circular motions and change how hard we press to make sure we get everything without hurting your skin. The warm oils soak in deep while we're taking off the dead skin, so right away your skin looks brighter and feels softer.
Harvard Health even says that scrubbing your skin regularly is really good for keeping it healthy and pretty!
The whole time we're working, we keep checking that the oils are at the right temperature and asking if you're comfortable. We change what we're doing if needed so you have the best experience ever.

Right after your body scrub at our Athens spa, your skin is going to feel SO much softer and smoother. Like, you'll probably keep touching your arms because it feels that good! The oils keep working even after you leave, and tons of our clients tell us their skin feels better than it has in forever.
For the next day or two after your treatment your skin keeps getting better. The oils we use create this protective layer that keeps moisture in, and since we took off all that dead skin your fresh skin can breathe and heal itself better.
Our clients always tell us their skin stays super soft for like a week to 10 days, and the best results can last up to two whole weeks! You might also notice better circulation, less ingrown hairs (those are annoying!), and your skin tone looks more even.
A lot of people who come see us regularly schedule their appointments every 3 or 4 weeks so they can keep feeling this good.
After you are done, our team will give you tips on what to do at home, like what kind of moisturizer to use and how to wash your skin gently. We'll also talk about how often you should come back based on your skin type and what you do everyday.

If you are dealing with sticky summer weather or dry skin from heaters in winter, getting body scrubs regularly keeps your skin feeling good through all of Athens' crazy weather changes. Getting treatments once a month stops buildup that happens when humid air traps oil and dirt on your skin - and this is a big deal here because Athens gets over 50 inches of rain every year!
Clients who come every 4 to 6 weeks say they have way less problems with clogged pores, ingrown hairs, and rough bumpy skin that happens when dead skin piles up. Plus the treatment helps your regular lotions and stuff work better at home, so you're getting more out of the products you already bought.
Ready to make your skin feel amazing with our hot oil body scrub? You can choose our 90-minute session or treat yourself to the longer 120-minute treatment. Both of them give you deep scrubbing and moisture that your skin really needs.

Yes! A hot oil body scrub gets rid of dead skin, gives you deep moisture, and fixes the buildup from Athens' humid weather all at once. Most people see their skin is smoother right away, and it lasts for days. If you have rough spots, clogged pores from the humidity, or dull skin that doesn't get better with regular lotion, this treatment works way better than anything you can do at home.
We give you disposable underwear to wear, or you don't have to wear anything if that's more comfortable. Don't worry though, we keep you covered with towels on the parts we are not working on, so you stay warm and comfortable. Bring loose comfy clothes to wear home because your skin is going to be freshly scrubbed and tight clothes might feel scratchy.
Take a shower before you come to wash off any dirt or pollen (spring in Athens is the worst for pollen!). Don't put on lotion or oil the day of your treatment, it creates a barrier and the scrub won't work as good. Make sure your skin is totally dry when you arrive. If you shave or wax, do it at least a day before so your skin doesn't get irritated.
Your therapist starts with a massage and dry brushing, then puts the scrub on your skin using circles that lift off dead skin without being rough. After the scrubbing part, warm oils like coconut, jojoba, or argan get massaged into your skin to feed it moisture. Then we clean you off with hot towels and finish with a light moisturizer. The whole thing takes 90 to 120 minutes in your own private room.
Every 4 to 6 weeks is perfect for keeping your skin smooth and healthy. Coming once a month works really well for Athens weather since it makes oil, sweat, and dirt build up faster on your skin. If you are getting ready for something special or dealing with bumpy skin problems, we might say to come more often at first, then go to regular visits once your skin is better.
Shower before to get clean, but don't scrub your skin yourself. We do all the scrubbing during your treatment with professional products that work way better than the stuff you can buy at the store. After your appointment, don't exfoliate for at least 3 to 5 days so your new skin can settle and you don't overdo it.
