Spa treatments are intended to promote well being, a sense of calm and relaxation and to allow us to take some time for ourselves away from the busy schedules. However, some spa treatments can seem a bit off the wall or downright crazy, but they exist and according to the customers, it’s completely worth it. So how far do you think you’d go to be pampered? You may be surprised.

Are you a beer lover? Then you’ll fall head over heels for a spa treatment that calls for soaking in a beer bath of suds. Currently available in Russia, taking a bath in a tub full of beer is reported to be great at healing muscle tension, promoting relaxation and even has the ability to cleanse and rejuvenate your pores. Because of its conditioning properties, a beer bath also works wonders for your skin and hair. After a 20 minute soak followed by 20 minutes of further relaxation, you’ll be punch drunk from head to toe (in a good way!). In keeping with the bath treatments, if beer doesn’t quite work for you, then you may want to try ramen soup noodles. In Japan, this treatment is currently being offered. For a ramen noodle bath, you can expect to sit in a tub filled not only with the yummy noodles but also garlic extracts and even collagen. This super combination of ingredients is able to rejuvenate the skin and has even been shown to improve a person’s metabolism.

The next time you’re in Southern California, you may want to look into a special facial that actually uses gold to pamper the skin and provide anti-inflammatory properties. Layers of actual 24-karat gold are applied in sheets to the face and allowed to sit on the complexion, which allows it to do almost everything from destroying free radicals, provide hydration, brightens, lifts, and firms. With one treatment, you will notice a visible improvement in the look and feel of your skin.

Tired of dealing with gnarly feet and toes? When regular pedicures can’t get the job done, you may want to look into a new and interesting type of pedicure being offered in Virginia. This new take on pedicures alleviates layers of dead skin through the use of flesh eating fish - you heard right. While it may sound dangerous, the fish used (a certain type of carp) actually don’t have any teeth and simply nibble away at excess dead skin. These fish have been used in the past to treat such skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis. If you’re worried about feeling any pain, you can relax - it actually tickles! Soaking your feet in a special pedicure tub filled with the tiny fish is enough to leave you with softer, smoother feet in no time.
