The Importance of a Good Base Tan

Beautiful legs on the beach

Hello again from Tropical Tan! As you get ready to celebrate the 4th of July and the rest of your summer, we hope you’ll consider visiting us and building up your base tan. You are less likely to get a really bad sunburn if your skin already has a little bit of color in it. A base tan acts as a built-in sunblock for as long as you maintain the color, and your skin has an easier time converting sunlight into a tan when it is already accustomed to doing so.

If you haven’t had any prolonged sun exposure since last summer, now is the perfect time to visit us and start off your tan. We’ll set the tanning bed to a very low intensity, and you’ll only be treated for a few minutes. This is sufficient to jump-start the tanning process at a level that your skin will react well to. As your tan develops, we can gradually increase the settings and prolong the length of your sessions. Once your base tan emerges, long days at the beach will be a breeze. You will have a smaller chance of burning when your skin is already in the habit of getting tanner in response to sunlight. It is especially important to have a base tan if you are going away on vacation this summer. The sun’s rays are much more direct at lower latitudes; it takes far less exposure than you would expect to develop a bad burn. Protect your skin by making sure a good amount of color is already there.

If you enjoy the experience of building up your base tan at Tropical Tan, we hope you’ll consider signing up for a package deal! The more sessions you buy in advance, the bigger your discount is. This way, you can keep your tan even after summer ends. For a limited time, we’re offering a mix & match buy-one-get-one 50% off special on our tanning packages and bottles of deluxe body lotions.

Don’t forget to check out our new fashion boutique after your next tanning session! The response to this new venture has been so positive that we decided to thank you with a special contest!

Awards, Spray Tanning

Tropical Tan is a JACC 2016 Small Business of the Year Finalist!

It’s official – Tropical Tan has been selected as a finalist for the JACC Small Business of the Year award! We couldn’t have done this without you, our loyal customers. We want to thank all of you for making our tanning beds, spray tans and aqua massages a regular part of your beauty routine.

This is a great time of year to get back into your warm-weather tanning regimen. Instead of rushing to get your summer glow back in June, start now with a consistent schedule of gentle tanning sessions to help you regain your tan. Come experience the mystic or versa spa. Lots of customers supplement their tanning bed sessions with spray tans. Figuring out your ideal balance can take some time, so you should start now, when you still have a few months before the start of bikini season.

Don’t forget about our aqua massages! This treatment has exploded in popularity among young women who need a much-deserved break from school and work. If you’re already here for your tanning session, we hope you’ll consider trying out an aqua massage. You can make a whole day out of getting luxurious beauty and therapeutic treatments here at Tropical Tan.

So far in 2016, we have already won awards for Better Business Bureau 2016 Principles of Trust, Favorite of the Four States, JACC Small Business of the Year Nominee and now 2016 JACC Small Business of the Year Finalist! To thank you for making us so successful, we’re launching a bunch of awesome specials and packages.

Aqua Massage

Benefits of an Aqua Massage

Benefits of Aqua Massage

Muscles tight? Shoulders or back aching? Feeling the stress of your busy life? You need an Aqua Massage! Aqua Massage offers all the benefits of a massage therapist in a quarter of the time and less than half the price.

What is an Aqua Massage treatment?

An Aqua Massage bed looks like a tanning bed. While you remain fully clothed, removing only your shoes, up to 36 jets of water distributed over your body provide up to 17 pounds of pressure on your aching joints and muscles. The jets can be positioned to concentrate on particular points of tightness in your body.

How long is a treatment?

Treatments last between 10 and 20 minutes, so you do not need to carve out an hour or more from a busy day as you would for a traditional massage.

What about privacy?

Sometimes traditional massages can be uncomfortable for those people who are, by nature, shy or reluctant to disrobe in the presence of another person. Aqua Massages are completely private.

How much does a treatment cost?

A 10-minute treatment costs just $14.00. This is far more affordable than a traditional massage, which can range $30-50.

Just how relaxing is the Aqua Massage?

The sound of water, the feeling of the jets pulsating over your body repeatedly, and the option of in-bed music during a treatment offer an optimally relaxing experience. Clients report feeling completely rejuvenated and refreshed after a treatment.

What kind of health benefits will I experience?

Aqua Massage offers numerous health benefits such as reduced muscle tension and soreness, improved circulation, decreased muscle spasms, restful sleep, less pain, and better range of motion.

Where do I go for an Aqua Massage?

Does the above sound like just the right experience for your sore muscles, knotted shoulders, or stressed mind? Call a trusted local salon to see if they offer the Aqua Massage. Your body will deeply thank you!

Tropical Tan is proud to offer the Aqua Massage treatment to the Joplin, Missouri area. Call us at 417-782-3900 with any questions you have or to schedule an Aqua Massage treatment. Or simply come on into our location at 7th and Illinois, where walk-ins are always welcome.
