Men at the Spa

Men spa-goers is a growing trend. Many spas are taking advantage of this growing clientele by designing tailor-made mens treatments. Introducing masculine products and themes will help men feel more comfortable in their spa visit; they want to see something that is created just for them. With Father's Day approaching, what better time to cater to the growing mens' market.

May 2011 issue of Pulse Magazine, article The New Male Consumer says "Most men are looking for deep tissue massage as a way to relax or for sports recovery...A masculine, relaxing environment is critical for attracting and retaining male customers."

Salt of the Earth's Fire & Ice menthol-infused lotion is a great addition to a sports massage. This product allows for quick acting, long-lasting relief to overworked, strained areas. Men want results and are looking for a lasting impression. When this lotion is applied during a massage, the effects are felt well after the client leaves the spa. The Fire & Ice is also a great add-on retail product where clients can greatly benefit with home use.
With over 50 signature scents to choose from at Salt of the Earth, we offer many diverse blends that also target the mens' market. Some of our best selling mens' scent blends are:

Aloe & Green Tea - Take part in this traditional secret founded centuries ago, as you are subdued into an ancient trance.


Bamboo & Teak - For a rugged, masculine touch - add sandalwood, cedar wood, musk, and just a hint of sweet fruit to magnatize any woman.


Cool Water - Ladies watch out, you can't resist getting close to this refreshing aroma when complimented by someone tall, dark, and handsome.

Our Precious Nectar

GRAPESEED OIL
Salt of the Earth's precious healing nectar! We use light, natural grapeseed oil - rich in Vitamins A and E - to rebuild collagen, repair damaged skin and enhance the skin's resistance to oxidative damage. Known to the Europeans for centuries, we love the rich, moisturizing properties of this amazing oil.

Grapeseed oil is great to use as a massage oil, bath oil, or to target those especially dry and damaged areas on the body as a moisturizer.

The Spa Magazine article entitled Anti-Aging Secrets: The Benefits of Wine says it well! "The fruit of the vine is one of nature's most powerful anti-aging tools. It turns out the same antioxidants (called polyphenols) responsible for bolstering cardiovascular health and fighting cancer and obesity on the inside are capable of smoothing lines and erasing age spots on the outside."
