Body BeneFits, Inc. expert massage therapists Marcie Newman and Brenda Jenkins have years of advanced body work and massage experience, as well specialty massages and reflexology.

Marcia Newman, LMT and Reflexologist of 14 years relocated from Canada wherein she owned her business providing holistic healing massage utilizing Young Living Essential Raindrop Therapy Oils, one of the world’s leaders in the cultivation, distillation, and production of pure essential oils and supplements. Her background includes chiropractic, thermography and aromatherapy fields. She is experienced in Myofascial Release, Reiki, and Body Talk, combining experience with her highly developed intuition for an amazing therapeutic massage.

After graduating with honors from Derwen Holistic Therapies, the first accredited reflexology school in Northeast Texas, Brenda then completed additional certifications in Aromatherapy and Raindrop Therapy.

What is Raindrop Therapy? The Raindrop technique is an essential oil massage based on Lakota native healing. It is the application of powerful antibacterial, antiviral oils along the spine using therapeutic essential oils that have powerful effects.

Raindrop Therapy focuses on antibacterial, anti-viral and anti-inflammatory properties of essential oils and how they benefit the body, mind, emotions, immune system and health. It helps cleanse and detox the body. Most of the efficacy of the technique is due to the oils. In fact, practitioners are discouraged from using other techniques at the same time as Raindrop Therapy. It is the profound natural "intelligence" of the oils which can heal where healing is needed. The oils used in Raindrop Therapy flush out toxins and kill dormant viruses and bacteria along the spine, restoring health to the entire system. Using hot towels and aromatherapy to achieve total relaxation when applying oils to the spinal area of the back can help treat and relieve back pain, muscle spasms, stress, depression, anxiety, and sinus congestion. Raindrop Therapy can also boost your immune system with its powerful antiviral and antibacterial oils. The focus of this therapy is on the neck, back and shoulders - and the healing effects are endless.

Body Benefits also offers Reflexology. Reflexology is a science which deals with the principle that there are reflex areas in the feet and hands which correspond to all of the glands, organs and parts of the body. Stimulating these reflexes properly can help many health problems in a natural way and restoring calm and balance.

Other therapies offered at Body BeneFits include Body Wraps and Body Scrubs. Body wraps are all-natural, most often containing a mixture of herbs and minerals designed to beautify the skin. Essential oils and sea salts may also be used in daily spa body wrap treatments, seeking to help tone and soften the skin, and help rid you of those unwanted inches. Green algae, however, are microscopic "protists," meaning they possess both plant and animal characteristics and do not include any form of seaweed in its classification. So as it goes, seaweeds may be categorized with certain algae, however, algae do not fall under seaweed classifications. For this reason, algae, along with seaweed and a host of other primary ingredients such as mud, clay, and paraffin, a waxy substance, stand proudly as major ingredients in body wrapping solutions. Results may be realized immediately. But toxins and interstitial fluids eventually re-accumulate, so regular body wraps may provide better long-term benefits. Body wraps use detoxifying organic materials to draw toxins from the body and soften skin. Body wraps are designed to improve the texture and appearance of the skin by helping to rid the body of excess fluids and toxins. Benefits of body wraps may include detoxification, boosting of the lymphatic system and metabolism, body contouring, temporary inch-loss, skin tightening, and skin softening.

Most Body Scrubs use a blend of oils with fine and coarse grains, and are followed with the application of emollient lotions to further soften skin. Skin will feel soft, and fine lines will lessen after just one treatment. Such deeply relaxing treatments are shown to decrease stress, thereby lowering blood pressure. Since the skin is our largest organ, detoxification can have profound effects on our health and sense of well-being. During the initial process, a client's skin is dry-brushed to incite exfoliation (removal of dead layers of skin). This process not only exfoliates skin, but it aids in cellulite control. Once dull dead top layers of skin are removed, smoother, livelier looking skin is revealed. Proper brushing involves gentle massaging motions. Salt Scrubs, also known as salt glows and sea salt scrubs, are means of hydrating skin, exfoliating skin, providing minerals to skin, and drawing water impurities out from skin in a detoxifying sort of way. Sugar Scrubs are often used during scrubs because simple sugars are part of skin's genetic make-up. Some believe scrubbing with sugar imitates or reinforces the moisturizing plumpness effect skin's natural sugar provides.

But don't expect a Body Wrap or a Body Scrub to be a massage. You can get both treatments - Body Wrap and Massage, or Body Scrub and Massage - or look for signature treatments that include scrub, body wrap and massage. ** NOTE: If you have claustrophobia, this may not be the right treatment for you.** You might be left alone during the treatment. If that bothers you, ask before you book the service.
