How often should I perform A body wrap?

You can experience a wrap every other day. We recommend that you be wrapped 2 times a week until you meet your goals. Then continue to wrap once or twice monthly to enjoy continued benefits.

How many wraps will I need?

For best results, complete a series of 4-12 wraps initially. You will need a series of wraps to see long lasting results. Depending upon the amount of cellulite that has formed, your percentage of body fat etc. will determine the number of wraps needed to obtain your desired results.

How many body wraps will I get from one container?

You will get approximately 2-4 body wraps from one 8 oz container of sea clay or sea mud. If you are doing partial or spot wraps, you will get many more. Remember to apply a thin layer of the clay or mud to the skin for best results.

Will I lose a lot of weight?

Body wrapping is not a weight loss process. The Body Wrap process is designed to reduce inches. You will look and feel as though you have lost weight which can encourage you to stick to your diet and exercise programs.

Is the inch loss permanent?

Yes, as long as you stick to drinking plenty of water and eating properly.

Almost anyone should be able to have a wrap but if you have a medical problem, circulatory problems, heart disease, low or high blood pressure, diabetes, or other disease, check with your doctor first. It is recommended that you consult with a doctor before beginning any weight loss or inch loss program. Do not perform a wrap if you are pregnant, nursing, menstruating or are constipated.

Tips For Buying Body Wrap Supplies With Natural Ingredients

When it comes to buying body wrap supplies, it’s important that you deal with a reputable company that sells high quality, natural products.  The last thing you want is to be exposing yourself to toxic chemicals during your detox body wrap!

First and foremost, when buying body wrap supplies, finding natural ingredients should be a top priority. Although even the highest quality products likely have some preservatives in them, it is possible to have them made with none at all.

So why are preservatives added at all?  They are added to most body wrap formulas is to improve shelf life.  Without preservatives, the bacteria that may develop over time can be far more harmful than the preservatives!

Sea mud, clays and dry mineral can all be made without preservatives with a pretty good shelf life of a few months. by storing them in a cool place, you can increase their shelf life.

Custom Body Wrap Formula’s

Most body wrap clays can be formulated with special herbs or essential oils for your own unique custom blend.

Another option is to request an extremely concentrated formula in a 100% glycerin base (no preservatives added). Once you add water to it, that is when the preservatives are needed for longer shelf life to prevent bacteria. Glycerin is non-toxic and good for the skin and is used in many products for its skin conditioning properties.

Another solution for preserving herbs without preservative would be in oils such as sunflower or mineral oil, but that would not blend well with water for creating the formula for body wrapping. With the glycerin base, you would add a very small amount to the water when you are ready to use it.

If you want to completely avoid any preservatives in your body wraps, there is another relatively new option. This is a product for soaking the bandage wraps in pure herbs. The Herbal Body Wrap Tea Bags include over 15 herbs that are specifically chosen for targeting cellulite, inch loss, toning, varicose veins, and improving skin health.  Boil water, add the tea bag, pour into the heating unit and allow to brew while cooling down to desired temperature. This provides the purest herbal wrap with no additives, and less expensive that other methods.

In the end, make sure that your body wrap supplies are made of high quality ingredients.  Certain preservatives are acceptable even in higher end products.  If you want to eliminate any preservatives completely, you will likely have to contact the company and request a custom order.
