Experience the ultimate skin reset. Our signature dry brushing ritual exfoliates, detoxifies, and leaves your skin remarkably silky and toned.
Why Your Body Needs This Ritual
More than a simple exfoliation, Detox Dry Brushing is an ancient Ayurvedic practice designed to invigorate your body’s major systems. By using brisk, intentional strokes directed toward the heart, we stimulate the lymphatic and circulatory systems, encouraging your skin to eliminate toxins naturally.
The Benefits:
- Silky Smooth Texture: Instantly sloughs away dead skin cells for a soft-to-the-touch finish.
- Deep Detoxification: Supports lymphatic drainage to help your body process impurities.
- Energized Glow: Dramatically increases blood flow to the skin’s surface.
- Toned Appearance: Helps balance fat distribution to reduce the visible appearance of cellulite.
This simple routine invigorates all the major systems of the body including the lymph, circulatory, nervous, and digestive systems while also stimulating all the major organs. It is a form of gentle massage that encourages the skin to eliminate toxins by dramatically increasing blood flow to the surface. Detox dry brushing exfoliates dead skin cells while possibly reducing the appearance of cellulite by balancing fat distribution, and it has the additional benefit of toning and tightening the skin leaving it wonderfully soft to the touch. This amazing health and beauty routine has been practiced for years in Eastern Medicine and is used in world class spas, holistic healing centers, and, most recently, cancer treatment clinics all over the globe.
A Brief History of Dry Brushing
Dry brushing is a type of Ayurvedic medicine that has been around for centuries to keep the body healthy. Skin brushing has also been around in many cultures since ancient history, such as Hippocrates and the Greeks, the Japanese, and Native Americans. The Comanche tribe, for instance, were known to scrub their skin with sand they took from Texas river bottoms.

Dry brushing is common at the beginning of body treatments. The idea is to perform dry brushing prior to a massage, facial or full body wrap to slough away dead skin and other impurities and increase your blood flow so you can benefit more deeply from the treatment that follows. Your therapist will use a sterilized, firm brush with natural bristles (often made from plant fibers such as cactus) and move it briskly in circular and sweeping motions all over your body. The idea is to brush in the direction of your heart to boost circulation and encourage lymph flow.
Safety and expert care
Is Dry Brushing Right for You? While dry brushing is a powerful wellness tool, it requires a mindful approach.
- When to avoid: Please consult a doctor if you have high blood pressure, heart disease, or diabetes. Avoid brushing over inflamed areas (eczema/psoriasis) or open wounds.
- Skin Sensitivity: Please do not dry brush if you have shaved that day or have recently been in the sun. Freshly shaved or sun-exposed skin is highly sensitive, and the bristles may cause irritation or micro-cuts.
- Pre-Spa Tip: We recommend not shaving or receiving chemical exfoliations on the day of your treatment to prevent skin sensitivity.
The Touch: The treatment is firm but should never be painful. Your therapist will adapt the pressure to your comfort level.
