Detoxify Yourself: Week of Detox at Ultrabeauty Day Spa

The week of Detox is coming to Ultrabeauty Day Spa from March 7-21. During this week all treatments will be 10% off (deduction will be taken at check out). Please call for an appointment and to discuss how you can customize your program.

Ultrabeauty Day Spa’s week of Detox means getting rid of toxins that poison your body in and out. We live in a fast world where we don’t have time to cook fresh meals, connect with nature, connect with ourselves and no time for relaxation. Our body quickly adapt to the antibiotics we create to combat toxins.  In addition, natural allergens, like pollen and dust leave us fatigued and susceptible to illness.

Although our circulation and elimination systems (specifically lungs and liver) work hard to detoxify our bodies, with all of the toxins that we encounter daily, these systems easily become overloaded. Fortunately, our bodies "tell" us when they can use some help.

To heal the body, there are a number of spa treatments that many individuals find to be effective  including  body wraps, saunas, therapeutic massage (especially lymphatic massage), exercise and/or meditation programs (yoga is highly recommended), professional nutritional counseling and dietary assistance.
During the week of Detox, Ultrabeauty Day Spa offers a variety of detox treatments to help you feel better, restore your energy and regain your well being. Following are the recommended treatments. Let us customize a treatment plan for you.
Start with Sauna or Steam ($10.00) to prepare your body for a deep muscle massage. The smell of eucalyptus helps to clear your lungs and the perspiration removes the toxin from your body .Drink our signature tea with fresh mint and lemon as you enjoy great relaxation.
Therapeutic massage mixed with cupping massage ($100.00) - 45 min therapeutic massage with concentration on problem areas finishing with a 15 min cupping massage for total body detox and deep relaxation.

The cupping massage releases rigid soft tissue, drains excess fluids and toxins, loosens adhesions and lifts connective tissue to bring blood flow to stagnant skin and muscles. The sensation of cupping is often characterized as deep warmth and tingling, long after the treatment has ended. Cupping is not an irritant to the skin or body. It draws the inflammation from the skin’s tissue. Massage cupping is often used on the broad areas of the back, which is a wonderful addition to any massage. The treatment is sedating, and people will often descend into a profound state of relaxation.

 Deep tissue massage ($75.00 )- helps to release the toxins in your muscle tissue and after the massage you can continue to use steam to eliminate toxins through perspiration. Please drink a lot of water to continue to remove waste.

Body Wraps ($85-unless otherwise noted)- During the week of Detox we offer a variety of wraps and each wrap treatment has its own positive effect to eliminated toxins.


  • ·       Detoxifying Mud wrap-a unique wrap from lake Saka, Ukraine. It contains a very complicated organic complex of mineral salts, living organisms, bacteria, fungi and algae. This is a unique "cocktail" including vitamins, amino acids and lipids. It was found that the vitamin content in Saka’s mud is 3-10 times higher than any other mud in the world and the lipids and their derivatives of fatty acids (a total of 14 titles) - more than 2-3 times. It also contains about as many times more amino acids. Scientists have officially recognized higher medicinal value in Saka mud. This treatment will help you to break cellulite and detox your body as well as relieve the stress and it is found exclusively at Ultrabeauty Day Spa.

Everyone loves chocolate. The scent of chocolate triggers the release of chemicals to brain that produce a feeling similar to that of when you first fall in love. In addition to being a sensory indulgence, chocolate contains over 300 different compounds, some of which can have a significant impact on one’s health and beauty.

The Chocolate Spa Pedicure at Ultrabeauty Day Spa is a luxurious treat for your feet. Splash around in a Chocolate Mineral foot bath and enjoy a back massage to release your tension as you are surrounded by the chocolate aroma. Magnesium, potassium and calcium calm and reduce the stress of tired feet.

The mask is removed with a warm towel which is again followed with a rich chocolate scent from the chocolate oil rubbed into your legs. We end with a Spa Pedicure: removing calluses, cutting and shaping toenails and finishing with a leg and foot massage and your choice of polish. Your feet have never felt so good!

Winter Skin Recovery Treatment

Everyone suffers from the winter skin blues. The Ultrabeauty Day Spa Winter Skin Recovery treatment helps to restore dry skin as a result of the winter weather. It also works as a great stress and tension reliever. This restorative combination of exfoliation, hydration and vitamin therapy, including food for skin (oatmeal mask and aloe vera gel), help to soothe and rejuvenate skin.


We begin with a cleanser to remove all trace impurities. Then, we exfoliate skin with the Daily Resurfacer exfoliater, focusing on dry skin, lines and wrinkles. This is followed by a double mask, including a mixture of Clinical Colloidal Oatmeal Mask and Aloe Vera Gel. There are numerous healing and nourishing benefits to both Aloe Vera and Oatmeal.

Using oatmeal in a facial mask can be a natural and effective way to treat many skin conditions, such as oily or dry skin, razor burns, acne, sunburn and even chicken pox. Antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal properties, contributed by substances called saponins, can be counted among the health benefits of Aloe Vera. The combination of these 2 powerful ingredients found in Aloe gives your skin a great look and indulges it with numerous vitamins and minerals.

See below for the complete details regarding the benefits of Oatmeal and Aloe Vera.

The Winter Skin Recovery Treatment can be done as a neck treatment in addition to a facial or as separate service. Book this treatment at Ultrabeauty Day Spa today!




Why Your Skin Craves Oatmeal

You probably know that oatmeal is a fiber-rich super food that does a terrific job of soaking up cholesterol and chasing it out of the body. But do you also know that it can perform mini miracles when applied to the skin? Oatmeal whisks away dead cells, irritation, and redness, leaving a soft, moist glow behind.
While this could be news to you, oatmeal's long been a staple among skin pros -- even ancient ones. Its skin-soothing powers were known as early as 2000 BC, and to this day, the FDA cites it as effective for relieving dryness and inflammation, including insect stings, rashes, and eczema. That's why finely powdered ("colloidal") oatmeal is sifted into soothing masks, body soaks and moisturizers.

There are four reasons why your skin adores oatmeal:
1. Fighting Dry Skin: Oats contain polysaccharides, which become gelatinous in water and leave a fine protective film on the skin, preventing dull, flaky dryness.
2. Moisturizing and Anti aging Oats are full of healthy, lubricating fats.
3. Defense building: The proteins in oatmeal help maintain the skin's natural barrier function, which ensures that the world outside the skin stays out, and what's inside the skin stays in.
4. Pore cleansing: Oats are filled with natural cleansers (called saponins) that gently remove dirt and oil from the pores.

Aloe Vera Gel 

Good for the Skin
One of the most popular health benefits of Aloe Vera is healing cuts, burns, psoriasis, shingles, itching, and other skin conditions. One of the remarkable properties of the gel is that it can penetrate layers of tissue and break down and digest dead skin cells. Aloe Vera can also anesthetize tissue and reduce inflammation, making it excellent for use as a topical pain reliever.

Good for the Body
A number of research studies have shown that the health benefits of Aloe Vera include internal uses as well. It seems that Aloe Vera can help boost immune system function by producing antibodies and helping to detoxify and cleanse the intestinal tract. Aloe Vera contains dozens of nutrients and active compounds, including vitamins, minerals, and amino acids that can provide a variety of nutritional health benefits.

More Health Benefits of Aloe Vera…
Aloe Vera also includes enzymes that aid digestion and reduce inflammation. It can help to improve circulation in the blood vessels and lymphatic system, and tone the kidneys, liver and gall bladder.
