The Weirdest Spa Treatments You Have Never Heard Of

Who isn't willing to take one for the team when it comes to beauty? Exactly how far you are willing to go is another story! The next time your friend invites you to the spa for a fun filled day of spa treatments and relaxation--think again! These weird and crazy spa treatments will leave you questioning your next trip to the local day spa.

What's Good Enough for the Car Window is Perfect for the Face!

Posh spa treatments now claim that bird droppings can be used to increase circulation in the face, make skin look younger and remove blotchiness on the face and neck. Think about that the next time you are driving down the road and a flock of birds flies above! There's really no need to put your windows up and pray that they don't go on the windshield of your newly washed car--instead, roll the windows down and hang your head out for a "spa treatment" facial that would cost more than $100 at a high end day spa.

Drop that Beer--In the Tub!

That's right, there are many day spas that now believe that beer has some really excellent qualities for the skin when you bathe in it. Beer bath spa treatments are offered in many European day spas and hotel spas as a way of increasing moisture in the skin and promoting circulation and relaxation. This is one spa treatment that you can do at home--just fill the tub with beer and enjoy!

Do Snakes Calm You Down?

There are some day spas in Israel that claim that snakes provide a calming effect that will not only help you to relax but also aid in the relief of joint pain. Gone are the days when we could go to the local day spa and get a massage--it's now left up to the snakes! Unfortunately, the majority of women and men for that matter that are attending the local day spa for the relief of joint and muscle pain do not find snakes to be very soothing!

Having a Bad Hair Day? Try This--

Alright, think you've heard it all before? Well, the next time you are having a bad hair day why not try a combination of minerals and bull semen to moisturize and calm your frizzy frazzled hair? In London there is a day spa that promotes the use of bull semen as a way to tame down and repair over treated hair. Maybe you should think about that the next time you think about coloring or perming your hair--again.

If You've Got Hay Fever--Don't Try This at Home!

Some Italian day spas have been promoting the use of alpine grasses (aka Hay) to relieve muscle pain. The spas will first wrap you in a blanket of fermenting hay secured with a fitted sheet. Then you soak in a tub of water heated to more than 100 degrees. The downside--if you've got hay fever you will likely surpass any possibility of healing from this spa treatment!
