What does the SPA in the SPA beauty salon mean?

The word SPA comes from the Latin prefix "Solus Par Agula", which means to use water to achieve health and healthy water.

SPA refers to the use of water resources combined with bathing, massage, skin care products and aromatherapy to promote metabolism and satisfy people's vision, taste, touch, smell and thinking to achieve a kind of physical and mental enjoyment. SPA is a soothing and decompression method composed of professional beauty therapists, water, light, aromatic essential oil, music and other elements, which can help people achieve body, mind and spirit bodybuilding effects.

Extended data:

SPA beauty is to adjust and relax the body in various ways through SPA, so as to achieve the effect of health and beauty. Its main methods are various professional hydrotherapy methods.

Professional hydrotherapy uses minerals, trace elements, aromatic essential oils and professional SPA skin care products dissolved in water to supplement skin nutrition through skin absorption, improve skin quality and make it smooth, tender and elastic.

The medical function and beauty function of SPA are mainly embodied in two aspects: physical function and chemical function.

The first is physical action, because when taking a bath, water will produce buoyancy, pressure and warmth. When the water temperature is higher than human body temperature, people will feel warm. At this time, the capillaries of the skin are fully expanded, metabolism is accelerated, sweat gland secretion is enhanced, and pores are fully opened.

Increased secretion of sweat glands will inevitably cause a lot of perspiration, so metabolic wastes and toxins in the human body will be excreted with sweat, which is of great benefit to skin beauty. When the pores are opened, the natural minerals, trace elements and essential oils added in the water will enter the human skin with the pores, so that the skin cells can be nourished with rich nutrition.

Secondly, the chemical action of SPA, when bathing, the whole environment is full of water vapor, and the water content of stratum corneum is often proportional to the environment, so the water content of stratum corneum can be increased from 10% to 50% in foam bath. With the increase of water content, the stratum corneum swells and presents a porous state.

At this time, various active ingredients soaked in water will enter the skin along the swollen stratum corneum, and its permeability is about 5 times that of usual. Because these active substances, which have the functions of sterilization, oxygen cessation and nutrition, can easily enter the blood circulation through the skin, they have positive therapeutic and cosmetic effects.
