What Are the Best Indian Treatments to Use?
by Louise Forrest
 
When it comes to beauty treatments, the Indian methods often win hands down. Traditional Indian treatments are only just becoming well known in America but they have been used for centuries over in India. They keep the body looking prim and proper, and they also leave the skin looking incredibly healthy. So which ones are the best to use and what are their benefits?
 
The Best Indian Treatments
There are quite a few Indian beauty treatments and really they are all pretty good. There are some that are more popular than others however and these include:
 
Threading
Threading is becoming really popular in America and it is best known for removing facial hair. Using a thread, an aesthetician quickly spins a fine thread extremely close to the facial hair which is going to be removed. The thread is around the same width as dental floss and it removes the hair in ultra quick time. Usually it takes only a split second for the hairs to be removed and this makes it less painful than a lot of other hair removal techniques.

Another good thing about the technique is that not only does it remove the hair, but it actually removes it from the root which reduces the risk of in growing hairs which can often occur with waxing. It is always best to ask the aesthetician how long they have been practicing and a bit about their skills before you book this treatment as you really want to use someone who knows what they are doing.
Body Scrubs
Whilst most people believe that body scrubs were just developed in America or Europe, they actually stem back to India. Usually the day before their wedding, Indian women would smear turmeric pastes and sandalwood onto their bodies and their heads. The products are great for the skin and they remove all dead skin cells and they are rich in antioxidants. They also apply coconut milk to their hair and body before the wedding as it is known to be a really moisturizing treatment.

It is possible to create your own Indian body scrub by simply adding ground chick peas or rice to your next shower. All you have to do scrub your body with either ingredient, and it will really help the skin and get rid of all dead skin cells. Also, limejuice and sugar create a really good sugar scrub and they are a lot cheaper to make than shop-bought sugar scrubs. The best amount of ingredients to use in your sugar scrub is three parts sugar and one part lime juice
Ayurveda
Not many people have heard of Ayurveda but it is basically a traditional healing system in India. It does not relate to any treatment in particular as every person who is treated with Ayurveda, is looked at individually. The treatments involved are usually exercise, herbal remedies, spiritual practices and diet specifications.

The practice ahs been used for minor ailments to serious injuries and it is no doubt going to become more popular throughout the US in years to come.
Sexual Healing
The Indians believe that Tantra is often the best medicine for the whole body. Tantra basically involves a mixture of yoga, meditation, ritual and intercourse. It is thought that Tantra helps the whole body and therefore helps to keep the skin looking healthy and supple.

Overall there are many Indian treatments and all are extremely good for the body and mind. Sometimes Indian treatments are the best treatments to go for. You just have to know which ones are available and which ones are better for you.
