HotelSpa Chrome Showerhead With Handheld Shower Combo Provides A Spa-like Experience

A shower is just a shower, right? Nope, a shower can be an Experience. The HotelSpa Showerhead with an added Handheld Shower provides your basic shower, but also a changeable dual shower experience. Each showerhead has 6 settings, so there is a potential for 36 different shower experiences. My favorite setting is the Hydrating Mist. I can imagine myself in the Amazon rain forest with a light mist enveloping my body. The pulsating massage is great for my neck and shoulders and even my sore back. There is also an Economy Rain setting for instances such as when you are washing the dog and need to lather. The diverter allows to you use the main showerhead, or the handheld showerhead or both showerheads at one time. The handheld shower also has a pause setting.

The installation literally took 10 minutes and was basically remove the old showerhead, screw on the diverter, screw on the main showerhead, screw on the sturdy 5 foot stainless steel hose, attach the handheld showerhead and place it in the slot on the diverter and you are done! Everything is included, including teflon plumbers tape to wrap the threads if needed. The only negative is that the showerheads and diverter are mainly plastic, which is good and bad. Spots are easy to remove by just wiping, but I am not sure how well the plastic will hold up over the years. There is a lifetime warranty, which is amazing. I do recommend this Showerhead combo to turn your shower into an experience.

The Easy@Home TENS Unit Provides Positive Therapeutic Treatment at Home

Chronic pain is a condition that many people have. Lately, there has been a lot on the media about the long term negative effects of pain killers and their prescription and usage is being strictly regulated. Many years ago, after a back injury, my physical therapist began using a TENS unit on my back. TENS stands for Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation. While the name sounds like torture and pain, it really is more like a tapping feeling using electrodes. The TENS unit is the first and only thing that could control my chronic pain. The way it was explained to me is that the TENS unit produces electrical pulses in the area of the pain. This fools the brain into focusing on those impulses rather than the pain signals, so the actual pain is not felt or is much less. Additionally, the pulses help to relax the area, which also reduces the feelings of pain. Often when we are in pain we will tighten up and this just makes the pain worse. The unit I had at that time was a stubby, black box, similar to an old style pager. It had numerous dials with many numbers and basically was impossible for me to figure out how to program it or change the original programming. I used that old TENS unit periodically and while it did help, there was really no way I could adjust it when there was pain elsewhere or if I wanted a different level or type of pulses. I was excited to use this new kind of TENS unit.

The Easy@Home TENS unit is a digital unit. Rather than a maze of little knobs with numbers and strange symbols, it has a backlit screen with pictures showing the types of massage and also auto-programs for each type of massage. Once the type of massage is selected then the specific program can be selected. It is auto-set for a 20 minutes treatment. This is a sleek unit with the ability to connect 2 sets of electrodes (4 individual electrodes). The provided electrodes are a perfect size and shape and attach well to the skin. I primarily use this on my back. When I use 4 electrodes I place one on the upper left side of my spine and the other on the lower right side, then the other two electrodes are placed in the upper right and lower left side. This provides almost a rolling pulse across my spine. All I need to do is push one button to select the type of pulse and another to select the program and it's done and I am in comfort. I can adjust the intensity of the impulse also and can extend the time of the program. I tested this unit repeatedly and found it to help my back feel better than it has in years. It relaxes my tight muscles and reduces the sciatic pain. The unit is thin and lightweight and fits easily in my pocket. I also have a little holder from an old cellphone that I can attach to my waistband. I was amazed to see where this technology has gone. This unit also has a wall charger and another cable included so you can recharge this via your USB port on a computer or other USB-type charger, there is no need to mess with dismantling and pulling out batteries to get charged. The Easy@Home TENS makes it so easy to use with the digital pictures and the pre-set time and programs. The massage impulses are perfect, even better I can decide which type I want and can change them with the push of a button. I have recommended TENS therapy to many friends, but now I will recommend the Easy@Home TENS therapy. This is so much better than taking pain pills with all their side effects and dangers. It will improve your life and let you live without pain.

The Detangler Brush Works Like Magic

I have several detangler brushes, but this one is my favorite because it is the perfect size to fit in my hand. I do not know how the detangler brush works it's magic, but it easily, carefully and completely moves through my wet or dry hair without pulling, snagging or clumping up the hair into a knot. It glides through my hair and even helps tame my frizzies. I can even keep it in the shower for use right after shampooing. It is easy to clean and keep clear of lost hair. I used to spend quite a bit of time trying to untangle my hair, often causing breakage and snags. But now I know I can get this brush through my hair in rapid time and have it looking perfect, shiney and smooth. It also gives your scalp a small massage, keeping it feeling great. I definitely recommend this Detangler no matter what your hair length is.

InstaNatural Lavender and Peppermint Essential Oils For the Many Uses Around the Home

Ingredients: Steam Distilled Lavender Essential Oil; Steam Distilled Peppermint Essential Oil. Each essential oil comes in an amber glass bottle with eye-dropper. They are made in the USA. They are not tested on animals. Both remain fresh for 24 months after opening.

The Products: Essential Oils form the basis of many personal care and home care products. Lavender essential oil has many uses: treating cuts and scraps and burns, aromatherapy, mixed with creams and lotions for massages, and for use around the home to relax and calm the senses. While Lavender Essential Oil can be used directly from the bottle, I always recommend that it be diluted with another oil, cream, lotion, witch hazel or even water. Some people are sensitive to essential oils and by diluting the product goes much further and the risk of a reaction is less. InstaNatural Lavender Essential Oil is very strong smelling so only a tiny amount is needed. It immediately upon opening starts to relax the user and the smell permeates throughout the house. I used some on hand lotion, as well as mixing it with some aloe and water in a spray bottle for a refreshing spritz of mist that cools the skin. I also put a small amount in my shampoo and conditioner to add the light scent to my hair. This is a great product and very economical. The 4 oz. bottle will last a long time, especially if diluted.
Peppermint Essential Oil also has many uses. While it could be used as a dietary supplement I would only do that on the advice of a physician. It is also important to use peppermint oil combined in another oil, cream, lotion, witch hazel, water or some other carrier. When used with a carrier it leaves a cooling sensation when spread on the skin. Some people are sensitive to the oil on the skin, so a small patch test would be good prior to using the combined oil. I used this InstaNatural Peppermint Oil in with my laundry to give a fresh, clean scent. Only a few drops were needed, which I placed in the bleach dispenser so it would be diffused. I used it in my hand soap dispenser, and a few drops in another hair conditioner. I also added about 1 eyedropper full to my vinegar and water cleaning solution. The vinegar did the cleaning, but the peppermint oil left a great scent everywhere. When I initially received the 4 oz. bottle I was having a slight headache. I opened the bottle and took a long sniff of the oil. I could feel the Peppermint Oil actually clearing my head and revitalizing me. It is known for clearing the sinuses and you can smell it directly in the bottle. You can't get more cost effective than that. I love this Peppermint Oil. It is a very generous amount for the price and really has so many uses. Also, it is a pure oil, no added fillers and not diluted. So you really get what you pay for. I have used many products by InstaNatural and have enjoyed them all. Very high quality, reasonable prices, and they stand behind what they sell with a 100% satisfaction guarantee.

You can purchase both essential oils on Amazon.com: Lavender, Peppermint.

Pure Body Naturals Fractionated Coconut Oil Is A Perfect Carrier Oil

Ingredients: Fractionated Coconut Oil (Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride). Product comes in a large, 16 oz. clear plastic bottle with a pop-open lid to dispense. It is not tested on animals, is cruelty free, originates from Malaysia, and is bottled in the USA. Unopened there is a 5 year shelf life, and once open it remains fresh for 12 months.The product I received from Amazon was exceptionally fresh, having been manufactured less than 3 weeks prior to my receiving it.

So, what is fractionated coconut oil and what is it good for? Regular coconut oil is a bit of a shape-shifter. It is extracted from coconuts. Virgin coconut oil is a solid, gel-like consistency in average temperatures, but at high temperatures it melts. It smells and tastes like coconut. Fractionated coconut oil breaks up the different components of regular coconut oil and separates out individual fatty acids/triglycerides. This particular fractionated coconut oil is compose of Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride. The wonderful thing about fractionated oils such as the Pure Body Naturals Fractionated Coconut Oil is that it has no scent or taste. It provides the benefits of coconut oil to the health and beauty industry. This oil is good on it's own, for massage or hydration of the skin, increased manageability when used in hair, as a carrier for essential oils, as an added component to shampoos, conditioners, or lotions and creams. Many essential oils cannot be put directly on the skin, however, mixed with fractionated coconut oil, which functions as a carrier and diluter of the essential oil, the benefits of the essential oil can be safely realized.

So, what did I do with all this fractionated coconut oil???? Well, I began by using the oil directly on my skin and hair. I loved how easily it spread and how quickly it absorbed, without being greasy or oily. It immediately hydrated and soothed my skin. It does not clog pores and gives a very dewy look to the skin. On my hair it brightened the hair, reduced the frizz and increased the shine. I also used a small amount in my shampoo and conditioner to really allow the hair to absorb and benefit from the coconut oil. This oil is so clear and refined, it is easy to use in so many products. I have many essential oils and some can cause redness, rash or sensitivity if used on their own. I made a gentle lavender oil to smooth on my arms. I had a small bottle and poured the fractionated coconut oil in, then added 6 drops of the lavender essential oil. It smells great and helps my skin recover from a cold, dry winter. I added some of the coconut oil to my skin cream, along with a few more drops of sandalwood essential oil. I even made some glycerin soap and added a capful of coconut oil to increase the richness and benefits from the oil while washing. I also prepared some potpourri with plants from my garden, stirring in some coconut oil, then adding essential oil to use for aromatherapy. The coconut oil helps to spread the essential oils among the potpourri, so I need less of the expensive essential oil. I can even just use the oil, with a few drops of essential oil as my perfume, rather than spending so much on commercial perfumes.

I am a fan of fractionated coconut oil, and especially of Pure Body Naturals Fractionated Coconut Oil. It is well-refined, freshly made, easy to use, and has so many everyday uses. I highly recommend this Fractionated Coconut Oil. Also, compared to some other Fractionated Coconut Oils, this product is very cost effective and it is currently on sale at Amazon.com, at 50% off.

Body Merry Cellulite Defense Gel-Cream Works to Reduce Unsightly Cellulite

Ingredients: Organic Herbal Mix, Organic Aloe, MSM, Sodium Stearate, Kosher Vegetable Glycerin, Organic Coconut Oil, Menthol, Cetyl Alcohol, Caffeine, Algae Extract, Japanese Green Tea Leaf Extract, Fragrance, Organic Sweet Almond Oil, Hydroxyethyl Cellulose, Carrageenan Gum, Retinol, Kelp, Dulse, Wildcrafted Horsetail, Organic Cayenne, Apricot Kernel Oil, Vitamin E, Sodium Benzoate, Potassium Sorbate, Phenoxyethanol, Ethylhexyl Glycerin. Made in the USA. Not tested on animals. Product stays fresh for 24 months after opening. Product is in a wide-mouthed plastic jar.

The Product: The product is a thick, slightly creamy gel. It spreads easily and absorbs quickly. Due to the nature of the container, you might get a bit too much product. Start with a small amount and gently rub into the skin at the area of cellulite. Immediately, I felt a soothing, cooling action. Due to the addition of menthol, and perhaps other fragrances, the product does have a strong smell. The smell diminishes somewhat once absorbed, however it would interfere with using other fragrances. It does indeed improve the appearance of the skin and area with cellulite, making it appear firmer and tighter. Since this is a topical application, continued use is needed to keep the effect. It is quick and easy to use on a regular basis. One interesting side benefit is that it seems to loosen and refresh tired and sore muscles. Perhaps this is an off-label use, but the effect was definitely present. It could even be used as a massage cream. I would recommend this product to reduce the appearance of cellulite. While this product won't remove your cellulite, it will make it less noticeable. Much of the product is organic and it doesn't have chemicals such as sulfates or parabens.
