What
is the difference between a water massage bath and a spa,
and when are Lait de Balneo or Velours de Spa to be used?
It’s very easy: if the bath is drained after every use,
it’s a water massage bath; if the water stays in the
bath for a log time, and it is filtered like in a swimming
pool, it’s a spa. Our products for balneo or spa are
designed to be used according to the restriction applicable
to any of the two kinds of bath; therefore, the product designed
for a water massage bath cannot be used in a spa, and vice
versa.
Is Lait de balneo the only
product suitable for use in water massage baths?
Definitely. We are witnessing a positive trend in the market
of water massage baths: over the last two years sales have
boomed, and baths of this kind are replacing our traditional
baths both in newly built houses, and in bathrooms undergoing
refurbishment works. As far as cosmetics are concerned, consumers
do not find the products they need on the market.
In fact, commonly used products are bath oils or bath salts,
or even pure essential oils.
Bath oils are fat-based oils, obtained by mixing essential
oils with a neutral oil, such as sweet almond oil, jojoba
oil, apricot stone oil, and so on. These are usually high
quality products, but, when used in balneotherapy, they often
leave a deposit that inevitably blocks the injection nozzles
in the bath.
Bath salts are beautiful to watch and can be fun. Nevertheless,
the crystals they are made of are not ideal either for the
injection systems of baths. Another thing to bear in mind,
is that bath salts do not always have real active principles.
There are still a lot of people who use pure essential oils
in their water massage baths, something to be absolutely avoided.
In fact, essential oils stay on the surface and they come
into direct contact with the skin, which can cause a series
of problems: skin reactions, allergies, rashes, etc... LAIT DE BALNEO is obtained through a manufacturing
method that we keep secret here at Camylle laboratories. Perfectly
soluble in water, it allows plant molecules to have their
positive effect on every part of your body that is soaked
in a healthy bubble bath. With its high concentration of essential
oils, it will turn your bath into a real well-being treatment
at home.
