A 15-minute massage fits in easily between classes, after work or any time you need to unwind a little. An Aqua Massage can be customized, and it can also be added on to the end of a tanning session to end your Tropical Tan visit on a soothing note.

Win An Aqua Massage!

We are giving away 4 Aqua Massages!

Our Aqua Massages are quickly becoming one of our most popular treatments. Clients love hopping into our massage beds for a few minutes of silent, private relaxation. If you’re already a fan or if you’re thinking of trying Aqua Massage for the first time, enter to win a free session!

To enter this giveaway simply text the word AQUA to 417-213-8930.

We are giving away one massage every Friday in September, and you must enter the contest before a given Friday in order to qualify for that week’s drawing. You only have to enter the contest once and you will be automatically entered in the drawing every week. Pay special attention to your phone on September 4, 11, 18 and 25. You might just receive a text telling you that you’re a winner!

An Aqua Massage is instantly calming, and it imparts long-term benefits as well. You’ll experience all of the perks of a traditional massage, but with the added control that Aqua Massage affords the client. Only Aqua Massage allows you to program your own sequences for a truly customized massage experience. It’s easy to get into a routine of scheduling 10-minute sessions after intense workouts or at the end of the workweek.

Getting a massage for the first time can be awkward. You have you take off your clothes and let a stranger touch you. Even if no one else is in the room, you still feel incredibly exposed, and you probably won’t be able to fully relax. Aqua Massage eliminates all of those obstacles by placing you in a private massage stall, much like the beds used for our spray tans. You’ll enjoy the benefits of Aqua Massage from the moment the water jets start moving. Call us today to book an appointment or to ask about our package specials!

God bless and make it a great day!

Build Your Base Tan Before Summer

beautiful beach girl

A base tan is almost like a form of natural sunscreen. The idea behind a base tan is that it is more difficult to get a sunburn if there is already some tan coloring present. Tanning in stages allows the skin to heal fully in between sessions. Instead of getting too much sun at once and risking a burn, it is better to tan gradually so the color can build.

When the skin is exposed to sunlight or sun lamps, it produces melanin, the substance that gives skin its color. It forms a protective layer around skin cells, preventing them from being damaged by harmful ultraviolet rays. Tanning is a positive cycle that creates more melanin each time, making the skin more resistant to burning the tanner it gets. Tanning also releases keratin, which makes the skin thicker and less susceptible to physical and elemental damage.

The best way to build a base tan is in a salon over the course of several sessions. Trained spa technicians are able to customize the tanning experience so that each client is getting the exact amount of color that her skin can handle. In a tanning bed, it is possible to control light exposure and intensity in ways that cannot be managed outdoors in natural light. Some people like to start in five- or 10-minute sessions so they can see how their skin reacts to UV exposure. As their skin gets darker and their resistance to burning increases, they extend the lengths of their sessions little by little. For every five minutes that someone is able to spend tanning without burning, the skin’s SPF goes up by a factor of one. Therefore, someone who tans in 10-minute sessions essentially has SPF 2 built into her skin.

A major benefit of having a strong base tan is that it increases the effectiveness of sunscreen. When someone applies sunblock with a high SPF over base tan, the SPF is multipied by the natural SPF that the skin accumulated in earlier salon sessions. This method of combining sunblock with a base tan is a great way to keep skin healthy and protected during the summer months.

God bless and make it a great day!
