Relaxing During the Holidays

As the holidays get closer and closer, life gets progressively busier. Our calendars begin to fill up and we often forget to set time aside for ourselves. Don’t wait until January to hit the reset button, keep up with your personal time all year round with these easy tips from our spa in West Loop.

Epsom Salt Baths

Unwind and detoxify your body with an Epsom salt bath. Fill your tub with warm water and add the salt. Next, just sit back, relax and soak in the tub for at least thirty minutes.

Plenty of Rest

Lack of sleep compromises your immune system and makes those family gatherings that much harder. Getting at least 7-8 hours of sleep each night helps your body regenerate and ensures you have enough energy to handle those holiday activities.

An Easy Read

Take it easy by curling up under a cozy blanket and reading your favorite new book. Sometimes the best way to clear your head is with a good read.

Massage

Massage is incredibly beneficial, especially during hectic times. Studies demonstrate that massage is an effective treatment for reducing stress, pain and muscle tension. Make sure you drink lots of water after your appointment and try to enjoy it to the fullest!

Instead of letting self-care take a back seat this holiday season, try our relaxation tips until things die down. If at home remedies aren’t doing the trick, contact a spa in West Loop to help you unwind. LillieAnns’ skilled team is here to help you de-stress.
