Below are 3 benefits of body scrubs:

Exfoliation
This treatment is all about exfoliation. Your therapist will vigorously rub you from your shoulders down to your feet (speak up if you’d like her to skip a certain area, like your stomach) with a grainy mixture, often including ingredients like sugar, salt or coffee grounds, which slough off dead skin. The friction also helps improve circulation and leaves you feeling energized. Most body scrubs end with a short massage that includes moisturizing oils, butters or creams that can penetrate more deeply after the exfoliation has done its work.
Tip: Consider forgoing shaving before a scrub as it can irritate freshly shaved skin. Avoid the treatment altogether if you have a sunburn or any open cuts or wounds. Source: CanyonRanch

Skin Detoxification
Creating your own home spa detox routine might seem a bit daunting but we guarantee this will bring life back into those limbs and ‘Giving It the Brush Off’ is the perfect way to start. Dry brushing is an ancient spa practice and adopting this as part of your routine helps to reduce cellulite and improve the texture of your skin. The motion of brushing helps the body’s natural detoxification process, increase lymphatic drainage and release toxins…that’s got to be good right? All you have to do before you jump in the shower is start brushing at the feet and working up the legs using gentle sweeping movements, towards the heart. Then work on your hands and start moving up the arms, shoulders, back and body and VOILA your skin will be on its way to having its healthy glow once again. Source: TempleSpa

Moisturization
No matter what kind of body wrap you get, your skin will end up nice and moisturized. Wrap solutions, regardless of their exact ingredients, are always super-moisturizing — so wrapping them against your body and adding heat will only intensify those effects. Plus, the therapist will usually apply lotion after the solution is rinsed off. You might not end up 20 pounds lighter, but your skin will be soft as a baby’s bottom. Source: Health.HowStuffWorks
