Upset Tummy? Here are Some Natural Easy Tips to Ease the Pain at Home!

Upset Tummy? Here are Some Natural Easy Tips to Ease the Pain at Home with Over the Counter Drugs!

Tummy aches can come and go without warning.  Maybe you ate something spoiled or just have some nerves wreaking havoc. Whatever the case, an upset stomach deserves some relief and you have the power to do it yourself at home, without turning to damaging over the counter medicines. 


HEAT: 

You'd be surprised how much this helps.  Now, if you're nauseous, this can make it worse, so check your symptoms.  I've found that this helps calm the spasms and relax the ache.  Grab a hot water bottle or heating pad and apply to the ache.  Or jump in with two feet and immerse yourself in a hot bath.  I prefer this method, as you also sweat some of the impurities and toxins that may be contributing to the symptoms. 

TWIST: 

Just like wringing out a wet towel of it's moisture, twisting your body can aid in releasing toxins stored in your intestines or stomach lining.  It's very simple.  You just sit down on the floor with your back straight up and your legs outstretched, together in front of you.  Now, bend and pull your left leg up and place your foot on the floor, with your knee standing up and your foot touching your inner right thigh.  Now take a deep breath, and as you exhale, slowly turn your body to the left as far as you can go, exhaling all the air out.  Then, as you twist back to center, inhale gently.  Switch legs and repeat this process on the other side.  Keep doing this if you can for 3-5 repetitions and then lay flat on your back and relax.  Your belly will thank you. 

ESSENTIAL OILS: 

There are a few ways to ease your stomach ache with essential oils.  One, is to place a couple drops of peppermint oil or tincture into your glass of water. (It's important to remember that you should aim to stay hydrated during this time anyway.  While that may not sound appealing, the peppermint will help ease that distaste.) Next, it's good to have a bottle of Eucalyptus Oil Shower Mist on hand anyway, for many reasons!  One being that you can add it to the steam of the above suggested bath for internal relaxation and refreshment; great for internal spasms! Another use being that you can grab a little caster oil, mixed with a little coconut oil and rub that gently on your abdomen.  Then spray the eucalyptus onto your belly and rub in a clockwise motion.  The oils will carry the anti microbial and anti-spasmatic power of the eucalyptus into your body and allow them to work their healing magic.  

Nobody wants an upset stomach, but it's comforting to know that there are options out there that are natural and efficient in bringing healing and relief. 

At Eurospa, helping you achieve health naturally is our priority.  We are proud to provide you with the highest quality products to deliver that health.  Please stop by and let us know how we can further the health of your life or business, today!

Eucalyptus Oil has microbial benefits that allow us to feel invigorated and rejuvenated both inside and out.  It can be inhaled and applied topically.  But did you know how deep the benefits of eucalyptus oil really go?  Here are 7 interesting benefits of eucalyptus oil, I'll bet you didn't know about! 


TREAT YOUR SKIN 

Ready for a surprise? Here are 7 Interesting Benefits of Eucalyptus Oil You Probably Don't Know About!Eucalyptus oil is commonly used for first aid purposes because of its vast healing properties. Because it's anti-bacterial and anti-fungal and is used for the treatment of cuts, minor wounds, blisters, and bruises. Application of the oil also helps heal skin irritation and insect bites. Especially useful for skin eruptions and to regulate oily complexions, it is also used to treat herpes, acne and chicken pox. 

BLISSFUL FOR AROMATHERAPY

Mix a few drops of Eucalyptus oil into a carrier oil, such as olive or coconut and massage around your chest and shoulders. Then, feel free to dip in to the bath tup. This will benefit your lungs and sinuses through the inhalation of the scent through the steam and also by absorption of the oil through the skin. Just really be sure to mix the essential oil with a carrier oil or even bath salts, as the essential oils are not water soluble.

IMPROVE YOUR HAIR HEALTH
Ready for a surprise? Here are 7 Interesting Benefits of Eucalyptus Oil You Probably Don't Know About!

Eucalyptus oil improves the shine, thickness, and overall health of your hair. However, use caution! Too much use can actually reduce shine and result in greasy scalp. Most experts suggest using eucalyptus oil for hair an hour or so before bathing, then using a good shampoo to remove the residue, followed by a good conditioner.

GOODBYE HEAD LICE

A stubborn nuisance, head lice spread very quickly and once hatched, they lead to a very itchy scalp. Unfortunately, regular hair washing does not help to get rid of them. Eucalyptus oil has traditionally been used to help kill head lice and their eggs because of the eucalyptus vapors. During an outbreak of head lice, try the following:

SOOTHE ASTHMA

Simply massage few drops of eucalyptus oil mixed with a carrier oil on the chest during an asthma attack or inhale the aroma directly to breathe better.  You'll be so glad you did.

COOL IT DOWN

Yes, it's true! Eucalyptus oil even cools the body down! During those quickly approaching hot summer months, heat strokes become common occurence.

If You Hate Having Hay Fever, Your Going to LOVE These Natural Home Remedies. Get Fast Relief Now.

If You Hate Having Hay Fever, Your Going to LOVE These Natural Home Remedies.  Get Fast Relief Now.Ah, hay fever.        
The dependable relative to spring that likes to show up at random hours, interfering with your daily routine and work schedule.  
I can't stand these phases in nature that are so invasive of my space and comfort! 
It's so incredibly frustrating to have that continuous, unrelenting urge to sniffle, sneeze and scratch your eyes out, than sinuses plugged up with pollen. It's all really quite strange and unnecessary really.  This is the time we are meant to celebrate the return of the sun, not dread it's aftermath. It begins, our immune systems go haywire, and see harmless plants (or dust, or dander) as real threats, and works overtime to push them out of our system, causing inflammation and irritation along the way! And using all those conventional allergy meds will often leave you feeling even worse. 

Are you feeling it?  If you've suffered from sinus irritation and crazy pollen induced hay fever, you know I'm not exaggerating and totally feel the pain.  But instead of despairing, running out to buy a gas mask or hiding in your window-sealed house for the season, let me give you some tips. 

If You Hate Having Hay Fever, Your Going to LOVE These Natural Home Remedies.  Get Fast Relief Now.
You actually can find relief and do so naturally with essential oils.

(aren't you excited??) 

Starting with our favorite, of course: 
Eucalyptus Oil! (You knew I was going to say that, right?) Eucalyptus is the super hero of essential oils.  When inhaled, it's oil can open the respiratory system, reduce inflammation and allow for better breathing! It confidently storms through your bronchial passages to clear to the path for more air! Add to that, it's anti-microbial properties and you'll not only clear your airways, but clean house of all it's enemies!  I recommend using this Eucalyptus Oil Shower Mist in your morning/mid-day/evening shower routine, or in a sauna/steam room if you have access to one!
Clove Oil is another anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial, and can help to reduce allergy symptoms. It's not as strong as the menthol based oils, but is best used in the heat of a sauna.  Get to one!
Peppermint Oil will help to open those stuffed nasal passages and can reduce headaches caused by sinus pressure as well! Special bonus tip?  Mix with a little coconut oils and rub on the top of your forehead, at your temples and behind your ears. You'll be surprised at how this gives you relief. 
Lavender Oil, a natural antihistamine, anti-inflammatory and very calming. It can help reduce irritation and relax your breathing.
Lemon improves immunity, relieves respiratory issues, is antibacterial and relieves respiratory inflammation.
The truth is, all of the above oils would do well to be inhaled in the heat of a shower, sauna or steam room and will work miracles when rubbed on to the head, neck  and chest with a carrier oil.   They will all penetrate your skin and airways to both cleanse them of the pollen and to give you the sinus relief you so desperately need! 
You don't have to be miserable any more.  There is help! 
At Eurospa Aromatics, we are committed to your health.  Stop by and see what else we can do to increase the quality of your life and overall health.  
You deserve it.

The Perfect Father's Day Gift Ideas for the Dad that Has it All!

Tired of the same old Father's Day gift ideas?  Here are some healthy suggestions for the dad that has it all!
Whether they are fathers, sons, brothers or friends, we love the dads in our lives and our biggest wish is for them to stay around, right? If you don't have a dad to celebrate this year, consider thinking of an loving father-figure in your life, or someone else's, who deserves to enjoy the honor of this special day!  He's given himself to create life, and now it's time to show your appreciation! But what can you do to better his life, especially when he seems to already have it all?


Let's start with health. Life is only as beautiful as the quality it holds.  I'm not suggesting you buy him two first class tickets to Bali, but I will give you some creative ideas that will leave him feeling relaxed, healthy and rejuvenated!

Here are some perfect Father's Day gift ideas for the dad that has it all!

1.  YOU.  I know you're busy, but you may just be the perfect gift of all! Take time out of your busy schedule and surprise him for lunch.  Just show up.  Put your phone away and be all ears. Giving our full, non-judgemental attention is one of the best ways to say 'I LOVE YOU'. That makes a man happy and being happy keeps the whole self more healthy!

Tired of the same old Father's Day gift ideas?  Here are some healthy suggestions for the dad that has it all!2. Personal training sessions AND massage.  Why both?  Well, going to the gym, whether fit or not, can be a chore and many people don't want to exhaust themselves doing so.  By coupling it with massage, you say, "Yes, I know it was hard, but you're worth it... and here's a relaxing reward for your hard work and dedication!"  It's not bribery. It's incentive!

3. Yoga class punch card.  Yoga isn't just for the ladies!  In fact, the truth is, men could use a lot more flexibility in their lives and yoga is great for those overworked mind and bodies.  Of course, do your research, and make sure it's a class he'll be comfortable with.  Added bonus?  Throw in a manly mat for him to take with him.  Either it's his thing, or not... you'll know!

Tired of the same old Father's Day gift ideas?  Here are some healthy suggestions for the dad that has it all!
4. Round up your family and invest in a home sauna.  This, I have to say, is one of my favorite gift ideas for everyone, but especially dads. Used all over the world, saunas offer both body health through detoxification and circulation and mind health through relaxation and being able to unwind after a long day.  These are relatively inexpensive and have long lasting benefits. Physically, nothing is more invigorating than a deep, healthy sweat.  His tension will fade and muscles will unwind.  It just takes a few minutes a day for him to both feel and look better!

5. Essential oils for health.  Specifically, eucalyptus oil.  If you don't already know the benefits of this miraculous oil, it's fantastic for respiratory, muscle and circulatory health. You can get the eucalyptus oil shower mist and encourage him to spray it around the home, car or office for the disinfecting properties.  To enhance his health and cleanse his bronchial passages, he can spray it into the shower steam or sauna heat for even further use.  This spray is an all round health and crowd pleaser!

I hope that these ideas have gotten you excited about honoring the dad's in your life.  We'd love to know how you've used them or if you have any other ideas you'd like to contribute.  At Eurospa, we are committed to everyone's health and all points of life! Let us know how we can make your life a better one!

6 Surprisingly Easy Tips for A Better Workout and Faster Muscle Recovery!

Discouraged about working out? Don't want the sore muscles? Well here are 6 Surprisingly Easy Tips for A Better Workout and Faster Muscle Recovery!Everyone wants to be strong, fit, and look great, but let's face it, our schedules and lifestyles often make this hard to do. And once we do finally find a chance to make space for those workouts, our dedication to a more toned body can lead us to over do it (from our lack of time) and we really end up paying for it in the days to follow.  While it's wise to modify your workout to be at a more efficient and healthy level, it's also smart to have a few tips on hand to make recovery both faster and smoother!  So - keep up your (healthy) routine and enjoy some of these all natural, post workout recovery tips!


ALWAYS STRETCH BEFORE & AFTER!

Gentle stretching before AND after a workout is a key component not to be dismissed. Trust me, I've been there and sometimes you just don't want to 'waste your time' stretching.  I want to emphasize the gentle part for a minute as well.  Especially before a workout, your muscles are not warmed up. This will cause them to be more tight and stiff - like a dry rubber band.  Over stretching or stretching to forcefully will actually weaken the muscle, making injury more likely. Once your workout is complete - consider stretching in a sauna (still gently) and really make use of the extra heat.  More about saunas below...  


HYDRATE! 

Water is so easily lost during exercise and you've to to replace it during and after the workout to not only hydrate those cells, but also to speed up recovery time! Water aids your metabolic function and supports the transfer of nutrients in the body.  So staying properly hydrated will improve each and every body function.  This is even more vital for endurance athletes who sweat more during periods of strenuous and peak activity. 


LISTEN TO MUSIC

Music is a great tool that can help us through a tough workout, at least by distracting us from the burning feeling in your legs.  But on a more serious note, listening relaxing tunes can surprisingly aid in your workout recovery.  So my recommendation is to listen to the faster heavier beats during the workout and switch it up to the slower tempo songs while you stretch and cool down, as the slower music can reduce blood pressure and pulse rate, which is especially useful after an intense workout!


REFUEL! 

Are you feeding your body with the right fuel?  Machines require fuel and so do our bodies.  You've got to make sure you eat within 60 minutes of a hard workout.  Your energy stores have just been depleted pretty badly, so you've to restore them if you want your body to recover, repair, gain strength and be prepared for the next challenge! So great go-to and simple snack ideas that will speed your recovery along are protein shakes, bananas, nut butters, hummus and red peppers, yogurt with berries, fish and all green plants.  Let's not forget the obvious- green plants are the foods to eat pre and post anything, really!


HOT COLD! 

Take alternating hot and cold to an even better level.  The traditional advice of alternating applied ice and heat have great purpose but are better for targeting specific areas.  Instead, try taking a really hot shower and then switching to the coldest setting for about 30 seconds (or whatever you can handle) and then switching back to hot again.  You could even include the sauna with this one. Sit/stretch in the sauna for 5-10 minutes, go out and take a cold shower (or ice bath if that's available) and then return to the sauna.  Repeat this process 2-3 times for best results. 


DID SOMEONE SAY SAUNA? 

Sauna is the word on the street these days for health and fitness advocates all over the world.  For good reason too.  The health benefits that saunas deliver cause me to wonder why homes all over the world don't invest in installing one in their own homes. If you're already going to be stretching in all that heat, enhance that experience further and add Eucalyptus Oil Spray to the heat and even steam. Simply spritz the spray into the steam or heat.  The oil in the air will then be activated by the heat, enter your lungs and be carried off to nurture those needy parts and well-worked muscles!


Congratulations.  You are working out more regularly and committing to bettering your health.  You will soon be looking and feeling better and that's something to be proud of. Please take care of yourself with proper diet, rest and recovery as you life your life to it's absolute fullest!  

From all of us at Eurospa, we toast to your health!

Get Glamorously Beautiful and Enjoy Rejuvenating Health with Menthol Crystals!


Menthol Crystals are being talked about more and more these days, but do you really know what they are and how they will benefit you? Originally known as Japanese Mint, the herb was exported out of Japan and into India. Currently grown in northern India, the leaves of this incredible herb contain 70 percent menthol, releasing a powerfully pleasant aroma of mint. The crystals offer the world many ways and applications to take advantage of it's wonderfully healing nature.   


Let's look at a some more information and ways that you can invite this plant's power into your own life, health and home. 

Description

get glamorously beautiful and enjoy rejuvenating health with menthol crystals from Eurospa Aromatics!A natural product, menthol crystals  contain and release a cool and refreshing smell of mint. Derived from the extraction of oil from mint, menthol is an herbal compound, formerly known as peppermint camphor. The crystals work well in any product requiring a strong flavor or aroma, with the added bonus of it's ability to relieve pain and soothe the body.

Uses in Health and Beauty:

Menthol's crystals are added to other great ingredients used in cosmetics, creams, toothpaste, dental rinses, cough drops and even shampoos. (Click here for more beautiful skin tips at home!) Because of it's analgesic properties, menthol crystals can relieve body aches and soothe muscle pains.  On a more precise and symptomatic level, the essence of menthol can clear up coughing and breathing problems. Simply place a few crystals in the steam of your shower or steam room and inhale the vapors to clear your sinuses. Rub the crystals along the shower walls and the steam will release menthol while you rejuvenate in the shower. With the combination of the heat and menthol  your sinuses will open, your body aches will be relaxed and throat pain will be soothed. Menthol crystals will also dissolve in alcohol and oil, allowing their strong smell to make them a desirable product for home fragrances and perfumes.

For Use In the Home:

When using menthol crystals at home to prepare various products like a salve or fragrance, always wear a mask. Avoid placing your head directly over the bowl or other container containing the crystals. The smell of 100 per cent menthol crystals is very powerful. Menthol crystals are soluble in alcohol and oils like olive oil but not in water. They melt around 107 degrees Fahrenheit. Ratios of 5 to 20 per cent menthol are common but for home use start with a low percentage until you develop a feel for the potency of the crystals and your own tolerance.

For Topical Use: 
Menthol crystals can be used topically to soothe sore and stiff muscles, but make sure they are diluted with a carrier oil such as olive, coconut or jojoba oil.  Rub the crystals in the carrier, over the area of the skin where the muscles are sore.  The first sensation that you'll feel will be an icy cooling, followed by numbness and partial incapacity of muscle use. This occurs, as the menthol crystals stimulate the nerve endings in the skin, creating that cold and numbing sensation. 

All EuroSpa Aromatics' products significantly exceed the pharmaceutical standard. All of our products are fresh and non-toxic. At Eurospa Aromatics, health quality is our main priority.  We look forward to hearing from you and allowing us to supply you with our products, which we firmly believe make your members healthier and happier.

Natural Gifts Ideas Your Soon-To-Be-Graduate Would Love To Receive

Graduation can be a bittersweet time of the year for many.  On one hand you may feel like you are 'loosing' a person very precious to you to the hands of adulthood.  On the other hand, you are excited for their rite of passage and want to both celebrate them and honor them accordingly!

But what do you you get for your soon-to-be-grad??  Well, I thought we could combine some natural earth and body friendly ideas, combined with the little things they'll need as they transition to living more on their own.
the gift of a full life is the best thing you can give.  It's no different for a college graduate.  Give them a gift that brings them joy, peace, strength, health and relaxation, from Eurospa.

Ready?

1. Money Cards.  Yeah, I know this FEELS impersonal, but believe me.  This generation is beyond that and totally excited to have a monetary plastic gift, usable in person or online for exactly what they need.

2. Movie Tickets.  Even those incredibly talented, artistic and conscious teens need some down time with their friends... and if you don't get them money, they may be too broke to enjoy some needed entertainment. Come on, help them out.

3. Assorted Teas.  You'll want to include some for health and detox, relaxation, and awakening.  They will soon be studying long hours and will need green tea, black tea or yerba mate to stay alert, chamomile or kava to relax their nerves and white or oolong to boost their immune system.  One additional cute thing to do, would be to divide the teas into sections and insert a little note card in each section with an encouraging explanation about the tea's use in soothing their brilliant minds!

4. Yoga Class Card.  Again, male or female, you can expect them to be spending a lot of time in front of a computer screen or with their noses in a book.  Think of how soothing it would be to them to have a dependable yoga class to attend once or twice a week and unwind their tired and stiff learning muscles?  Good for the body, good for the health.. A great gift idea.

5. Multi-Purpose Spray.   What's better than an all-in-one spray that really works to better your health, relax you, invigorate you and clear the home of germs and viruses??  This Eucalyptus Oil Spray can be sprayed into the steam of the shower to  awaken the senses and open the bronchial passages while also usable to spray into a room and on to surfaces to kill the plentiful harmful germs.  That's a good choice especially for a teen new to having to keep so much clean, all on their own!

Again, this is a bittersweet time in your life and the gift shouldn't complicate it further.  We are happy to enhance the life and health of people in all generations. Stop by Eurospa to see what else we can do for you today!

Energize Your Morning With Essential Oils as Strong as Coffee!!

Not everyone is a morning person, but most people need to function in the morning for one reason or another.  With that in mind, let's make the most out of those morning blues with these 7 positive ways to create an energized and productive day!

1.  START THE NIGHT BEFORE
Everyone has personal weaknesses in their morning routine, so we want to reduce the confusion and chaos the night before.  For example, gather your clothes (yours and the kids) together and set them aside to save yourself the anxiety of staring into your closet and making those choices in your morning zombie mode.  Then, take some essential oil of lavender with a little coconut oil and massage into your feet.  The oil will be absorbed through your feet and travel to the rest of your body, aiding in added relaxation.

wake up and start your day feeling rejuvenated and refreshed with menthol crystals from Eurospa Aromatics.2. BE THE SUNSHINE IN YOUR own DAY
The sun is going to rise regardless of what side of the bed you choose to wake up on.  And, yes I said "choose".  I know you might be tired (maybe go to bed earlier?) or dreading the day ahead but only you can decide how you feel about your day and whether your fears or frustrations will rule you. When you wake up - just smile.  Even if you feel stupid and inauthentic, smile anyway and keep it there.  While (possibly staging) you grin, think of everything you love and are thankful for.  Life can be crazy but it doesn't mean YOU have to be.  So make a different choice.  You be the sunshine!

3. PRAYER and STILLNESS
Find a quiet place in your home (especially helpful for parents) that's free from distraction, but not in your bed.  Turn on some relaxing music, read or just sit in the stillness. Take one, then two, then ten deep breaths.   This is your opportunity to set your daily intention for a peaceful and productive day.

4. GET MOVING
It's common knowledge that physical activity is important for both your mind and body, but it can be really difficult to find the time to fit it in to our busy schedules.  If you can go for a run or stop by the gym first thing in the morning, great!  If not, make a plan to implement a small routine into your morning so you at least set a pattern and habit to care for your mind and body which will in turn, not only set up your day with energy but also the rest of your life.

5. WAKE UP WITH WATER
Inside and out is best! Make sure to drink a glass of water, as the hydration really does wake up your cells and start your day with a metabolic cleansing.  Then head to the shower.  Turn up the heat and let your muscles both relax and rejuvenate! Add menthol crystals to the shower steam as well to further awaken and even reap the health benefits!  Menthol crystals open up your bronchial passage ways, allowing you do breathe deeper  and get more oxygen to your brain. More oxygen to the brain means more clarity and mental peace.  These crystals will add a great vibrance to your day!

6.  BODY FUEL
Some people are morning eaters and some are not.  Meet with a nutritionist or do some research and try to hone in on what your particular body type is.  Some people are the hot tea and toast type and others are the full spread of fruit, bacon and eggs.  Whatever feels best and fuels you for the next couple of hours should be considered your energy spark for the day and committed to. When you take time to eat a balanced meal, you are giving your body the fuel it needs for everything else.   Chinese medicine states that the morning meal is the fuel your body pulls from most, the rest of the day. Only the oiled machine can truly perform!


Your health is our goal at Eurospa.  Let us know how we can make life better for you.

Incredibly Healing Natural Remedies Mom Would LOVE to Have.

There's a lot of talk about different home remedies and the moms out there can become overwhelmed with their options. That's why YOU are amazing and finding out all the information FOR her, today.


You're so kind.

Essential oils make the perfect gift for Mother's Day this year, as they will not only help her feel like a queen, but also increase her immunity and ease common everyday discomforts!Here's the thing.  Did you know that the pharmaceutical companies create their top medicines from the active healing properties of plants?  (then they take them to a lab and add a bunch of chemicals and additives that are totally unnecessary and further damaging to your health...but that's another story) For now, I want to focus on the alternative options you can gift mom with this year.  Because she deserves it and you love her. Right?


Peppermint:  First of all, peppermint is absolutely incredible. The essential oil of this miraculous herb is so multi-functional.  It calms the digestive system, fires up metabolism, eases tension and boosts your energy! People have compared used this oil in place of over the counter stomach relievers/antidiarrheals, energy drinks and even pain relievers!  Simply place a few drops on your forehead, temples, around your belly, on your shoulders and even on the bottom of your feet!  You'll be surprised at the results.

Lavender: Lavender is one of the best oils you can keep on hand. In addition to its incredible scent, it addresses a spectrum of benefits from easing pain, calming the nerves and anti-viral to fight germs, bacteria and viruses.  People have replaced anti-biotic ointments, pain relief meds, sleep aids and muscle rubs with the oil of this incredible plant.

Lemongrass: This is a great one for it's scent and uplifting nature!  It can be combined with all the other oils I'm suggesting to you. Not only with it's smell but also for it's healing benefits! Lemongrass has long been used in Asian and Caribbean cooking due to its subtle lemony flavor and aroma. It shouldn't surprise you then, at this point, this plant oil is anti-viral, uplifts moods, calms the nerves, great for jet-lag and even as a bug repellent! For topical use, make sure you mix 1 -2 drops into about 1TBSP of coconut oil, as the oil can be too strong on the skin.  Just mix and rub on needed areas or diffuse in a room to breathe in it's benefits.

Eucalyptus: Our absolute favorite, of course, is Eucalyptus, for it's incredible power to fight and kill viruses, germs and general illness when inhaled in natural air or steam.  It's essential properties go into the body and open up bronchial and nasal passages, all while beating the illness living in them.  Relaxing, energizing and healing - this oil in spray form can be used as a room spray, home cleaner and sauna/steam room enhancer.  It's a necessity in any conscious mother's medicine bag.


I hope that helped give you a few more ideas to prepare for Mother's Day. It's coming soon, so make sure you are prepared to give her a gift she absolutely deserves.  From all of us at Eurospa, Happy Mother's Day.
