There are many different home body wrap recipes that work wonders, but it’s important to understand that the ingredients in the recipe that you choose will depend on what you are trying to achieve.
For instance, some people are trying to achieve inch loss, while others are simple trying to detoxify their body.
Here is a sample of a great “universal” clay based recipe that I use regularly, and really enjoy:
Body Wrap Ingredients:
- 1 cup of green clay
- 1/4 cup sea salt
- 2 tbsp. olive oil
- 2 cups water
This is a very simple recipe that is easy to prepare, and works well.
Directions:
Simply boil water in a pot, add the ingredients, and stir until the mixture forms a wet paste.
Let the paste cool off slightly, and begin applying it to the areas of your body you would like to wrap. Once the paste has been applied to your body, begin wrapping. I always recommend that you use body wrapping cloths as opposed to towels, as they are much more effective.
Leave the cloths on your body for at least 45 minutes. Since home body wraps can be messy, usually the bathtub is the best place to sit during the wrapping process. Try relaxing with some of your favorite tea and listen to calming music.
After the 45 minutes is up, remove the towels and take a warm shower to remove the paste, and enjoy the new revitalized you!

The recipe in the article is a good “all around” formula. Note that most wrapping recipes will result in immediate inch loss, but initially most of this inch loss is water.
For long term weight / inch loss, green tea and kelp are two very important ingredients.
Best of luck!

There isn’t really a limit in terms of how many body wraps you perform, but most of the time 2-3 wraps per week is a good start and you can decrease to 1 weekly after that. It also depends on your goals… For example if you are aiming for body detox, then I recommend more wraps and for a longer period of time.

Is that green tea AND kelp?
Or
do you mean we could use green tea or kelp?
Also, is that actual green tea from a tea bag?
thanks
