Three of our Favorite Tools for Wellness Care at Home

Taking care of your wellness is an active daily pursuit. In between wellness sessions, making time and space for self-care is crucial to maintain health and prevent illness and injury. Whether to boost your brain's cognitive ability or find relief from pain, we love using these tools to better our client's lives both in the spa and outside of it.

BrainTap

BrainTap uses the power of light and sound to transform your brain's abilities.

Harnessing the combination of light and sound, BrainTap refines your brain's capabilities and bolsters cognitive function, giving you the mental acuity and concentration needed to make informed choices and focus on your goals ("Experience BrainTap").

How does it work?

Unlike traditional meditation apps, BrainTap’s proprietary neuro-algorithm produces brainwave entrainment – the synchronization of brainwaves to a specialized sound – with no added effort. These sounds create full-spectrum brainwave activity (neuro-activity), a matrix that BrainTap uses to maximize its impact on neuroplasticity ("Science"). Essentially, by using light and sound purposefully and synchronously, the effects of traditional meditation practices are increased— giving you the benefits of hours-long meditation in only a 20-minute session.

We encourage everyone to use BrainTap to support their brain's health, but its results prove incredibly effective for those struggling with issues like anxiety, depression, high cortisol, concussion recovery, and more. By decreasing stress, BrainTap can help support healing, prevent stress-related illness, and maintain one's general brain health.

Epsom Salt

Epsom salt baths are a wonderful way to find relaxation at home. Although you won't receive the buoyancy you will find in Float Tanks (or Sensory Deprivation Tanks), Epsom salt has been found to be extremely relaxing even in smaller quantities. Due to its high magnesium content, people report sensations of decreased muscle pain and stress levels after a soak in it. Especially in times of pain and stress, taking a warm Epsom salt bath is a great, cost-effective way to find some relief and relaxation.

Castor Oil as a Wellness Tool

Castor Oil is amazing for eyelash growth, hair growth, and even for decreasing pain and inflammation. Containing the only natural source of the fatty acid Ricinoleic Acid, castor oil is incredibly anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial. It has been used for thousands of years in homeopathic and Eastern medicine to treat a wide variety of symptoms. One of our favorites is creating castor oil packs to reduce symptoms of gastrointestinal and gynecological problems. Want to learn how to make one? Click here to watch our tutorial.
