Orange Spice is a citrusy and fun filled Massage Wax, particularly as
it has a very jolly scent and people always comment that it makes them
think of Christmas - probably because of the orange in mulled wine and
cakes. No wonder then that sales of the Orange Spice always peak during
the winter!
It is gently warming as well as sedative. The essential oils are both antispasmodic and antidepressant.
Both
Orange and Grapefruit are good for fluid retention and cellulite work,
Grapefruit in particular being a diuretic, detoxifier and stimulant of
the lymphatic system. It is also good for oily skins and acne.
Orange
Spice is a good all round massage wax, being liked by both men and
women. It is used by Sports therapists as it helps disperse lactic acid
from the muscles, thus reducing aches and stiffness, thus making it
particularly good for those in training, like dancers and athletes.
Grapefruit's
uplifting and antidepressant effect is used by therapists wanting to
treat those with depression and Seasonal Affective Disorder (S.A.D).
The
Pimento Oil adds the 'spice' to the formula and creates a gentle
warming effect, making it a useful 'warming' massage wax if you don't
want to go to the full heat of the Aches and Pains Balme. In
combination with the Orange, it can help in treatment of constipation,
digestive problems and insomnia.
Orange Spice, probably because
of the citrus nature of the essential oils, tends to be the 'softest'
massage wax, and some people prefer this in terms of spread during the
massage.
Essential Oils used are Citrus paradisi (Grapefruit), Citrus sinensis (Orange) and Pimento dioica (Pimento)
