One of the things I love about the spa are the complimentary hand massages while I'm receiving spa treatments. Believe it or not, a basic hand massage is not difficult to perform and can help relieve a lot of the tension caused by daily repetitive motion like typing or text messaging.
An appropriate lotion makes a big difference! Some lotions contain too much water to withstand the friction of massage and create "drag" which can be painful. The higher the water content, the faster the lotion will evaporate. A lotion with higher oil content like our Natural Botanical Lotion is excellent for massage as it was designed for this purpose and contains high-GLA botanical oils to help improve the appearance of dry, tired skin.
Tip: Offer a hand massage to your partner to help alleviate tension, improve their (and your) mood and help restore the appearance of dry, winter hands. Try alternating who gives the massage and who receives the massage so that you both can benefit!
