Cedar Springs Spa Services

To finish the treatment, a rich emollient cream with essential oils is gently massaged into the whole body. The service takes 90 minutes and you feel like a million bucks.

Infrared Sauna

At Cedar Springs we recommend using the infrared sauna several times during each cleansing week. The sessions usually take an hour with a 20-30 minute warm-up, 15 minutes of perspiring, followed by a cold shower and then another 10-20 minute session in the sauna.

The infrared rays penetrate the body over 1.5 inches, which creates a deep heating effect in the muscle tissues and internal organs without stressing the heart muscle.

After an initial warming up period, the body begins its natural cooling off process of perspiring. Three things are accomplished during this phase:

Waste products and toxins such as alcohol, nicotine and heavy metals are removed from the cells and excreted through the pores of the skin.

The skin sheds any old skin cells leaving it glowing and immaculately clean.

As the body expends energy to produce sweat, the heart beats harder and faster, which has a conditioning effect on the cardiovascular system plus is an effective weight control for people who can't exercise.

The infrared sauna is an hour well spent supporting the natural detoxification systems of the body and relaxing deeply into a comfortable heat.

Pilates

Pilates on the ball is first and foremost – FUN.

There are tremendous health benefits for using the big balls in our ‘Breathe and Stretch’ class, which is offered everyday in our cleansing programs.

When a person is working on the ball and using the Pilates method, several things are happening:

• torso strength is built without injuring body

• deep muscles are being isolated and trained

• the body comes into natural alignment

What makes the ball method of exercise unique is that the ball has an unstable base of support. That means that you have to use many of the body’s deep stabilizing muscles (core) in order to balance. Fluid movement and the mind- body connection are enhanced because the entire body is being used in order to stabilize the torso.

Relaxation and breathing techniques are essential components to a Pilates workout. The ball becomes an excellent spherical prop for guiding the breath and creating deep relaxation for all parts of the body.

Bouncing on the ball also creates a safe cardiovascular workout. The ball cushions your body as you bounce so there is less impact on the skeletal structure. This allows you to comfortably increase your heart rate and sweat out toxins in order to give the heart and lungs the vigorous workout they need.

And, last but not least, the ball is fantastic for stretching. Many yoga teachers find the ball an excellent prop for achieving difficult postures and facilitating relaxation.

Yoga

Many people think that yoga is about being flexible. Although yoga helps to develop flexibility, the real purpose of yoga is to help a person come into the present moment, to become more aware. The key to the present moment is our breath. As we breathe and relax we become aware of the subtle signals of our body. As we stretch, we release tension not only in the body but in mind. Yoga works on the whole person. We develop strength as well as flexibility, the ability to be courageous as well as the ability to surrender. Yoga is a wonderful exercise for body, mind and soul!
