Hello,
I was just wondering if anyone still uses the neck wraps on all guests or are most of you just using one on the hostess.Also,does anyone use the heated socks without the bags?I am trying a few different things.

Hey Shelley! I have gone to using just one neckwrap at my Spas. I waem it up and each guest gets to try it on for a bit..see how it feels..get comfortable with it...and then pass it on! This gives them an idea of how wonderful the neckwrap is and hopefully will entice them to book their own spa so they can get one as well.

As far as the socks go, I have not yet started using them, so I can't help you there. I am going to order some, however and I'll post when I see how it goes. Keep working and you'll find what works best for you!

To cut down on excess baggage going into my spas,I don't take a neckwrap for everyone. I take two- one usually goes on the hostess and the other the guests try and pass around whileI am doing the omni ball and sqwiggler. Iuse BC's neckwraps too but I know of others who use the satin ones which are lighter.I heat my socks and neckwraps as well as wash cloths before I leave home and pack them into aninsulated cooler that I got at Wal mart.I place my socks and wash cloths into gal. size ziplock baggies before I put them into the cooler. They stay nice and warm. I can fit all of this into the one cooler.


I've also thought about trying to change mine up a bit- I'd like to hear others' ideas as well.

I use the neckwrap only for the hostess. She/he is going to get teh most pampering. I do use plastic baggies on the feet with socks over them. Right now I use gallon sized bags, do any of the small ones work? I wasn't quite sure.

I only use one neckwrap. I put it on the first person and tell them Iwould like for each one to introduce themselves, tell me one thing they like about the hostessand what their biggest stressor is. They can only keep the wrap on while they answer.(sometimes they talk really slowsmileys/smiley2.gif) I explain the neckwrap needs to end with the hostess because it is hers to keep for holding a spa. Itseems to makethe hostess feelspecial and they all get to try the neckwrap.


I use the socks with the gallon size bags. I haven't gotten brave enough to heat them. I have heard too many horror stories of burnt socks! If something can wrong, with me it usually does. One day I might get brave enough to try.

I use one neckwrap to pass around (they usually fight over it lol). I also use warm socks, with no bags. They love the idea that they can take a brand new pair of socks home with them! I ordered mine from sockmills.com you can get 120 pairs for $64.50 I think.


I have never heard of the bags on the feet until a couple weeks ago. It reminds me of mom putting bread bags on our feet before our boots so our feet would stay dry lolsmileys/smiley36.gifI'll have to try it sometime. I did have one person who grabbed the neckwrap before she knew what was in it and she had a reaction because she was allergic to lavender.smileys/smiley19.gifshe was alright after she went outside and got some fresh air. So you might want to ask if anybody is allergic to it before you pass it around!

Wow, I never heard of someone having a reaction to the neckwrap. Don't you just hate that! Kinda puts a damper on things when you are showing something off, and someone has a problem with it. It happens, and we get right past it though.

I do use the 1 neckwrap for the hostess, which everyone is to pass around and wish they could where so they will book a spa.smileys/smiley2.gifsmileys/smiley36.gif

I use the plastic bags, which are Glad storage bags with a twist tie (don't use the twistiesmileys/smiley2.gif). Over that they put on the warm, damp socks. I would think heating them damp should eliminate any fire issues, but my director does damp and so do the rest of us. Maybe we've just been lucky.

HTH! Angela

I use one neckwrap for the hostess. I have socks and plastic footies for everyone. Since I have been using the invitiations from spasupplysource, I don't have to bring as many towels because the guests are told to bring their own. Instead of wash clothes, I use unscented baby wipes. They work great!


The plastic footies I got from www.SurgicalSupplyService.com (http://www.SurgicalSupplyService.com)


They are 500 pairPlastic Slippers for $21.95 For anyone interested: the number is 050380. These are clear footies. That is $0.04 per pair! I am still working on my original order.

Umm...can I ask...what are the washcloths for?


sorry if it was explained, just wondering.

I take the wash cloths for the ladies to use after they've used the Margarita Scrub-just before they apply the Margarita Foot Creme and the heated socks.


During the relaxation session of the spa, I have them apply Warming Trend and I apply a heated cloth to their faces as they are relaxing and receiving their hand massage.


This is just what I use them for- I don't know how everyone else does their spa though. Hope this helps.

I guess I am a die hard........I still use a neckwrap for all of the guests....I also use the warm socks that the guest keeps and washcloths for the margarita scrub. They love it and it soooooo much easier than the foot tubs were. Even though the foot soak and margarita scrub is what sold me on BC!! I just couldn't handle the tubs anymore....but I have a nice supply of about 30 tubs!!!! They make great storage in the garage for the shelves~~~
