When we imagine a spa, we mistakenly think only of a pool with jets or a jacuzzi.
However, we must know that spas are a source of physical and mental well-being.
To achieve this, we not only use hydrotherapy, but we also include body and facial treatments that help us achieve this goal.
That is why, spas are becoming more frequent that not only include water treatments, but also aesthetics.
Such as mud baths, algae massages, aromatherapy, etc. And among them, we include chocolate therapy.
Previously, we had talked about this treatment. However, the beneficial effects of cocoa for hair have recently been known.
We refer to capillary chocolate therapy. It is a new technique to carry out hair treatments.
In fact, its powerful benefits for hair have been proven. Especially, when it comes to dry and damaged hair.
In recent years, Venezuela, which is the main exporter of cocoa, has noticed an increasing demand.
Recent studies declare that it is not only a demand destined to the alimentary consumption, but also to the use of the cacao in the beauty treatments.
That is, both body and facial treatments, and recently, capillaries.
The use of chocolate therapy for the hair began when checking that cocoa helps the hair for different reasons:
First, because it contains vitamin B1, which helps the deep hydration of the scalp.
Second, because it contains magnesium, whose antioxidant effects provide great elasticity to the hair.
Third, because of its high content of theobromine, a natural stimulant of the circulation, which allows oxygenation of the body’s entire tissues.
And, finally, for the minerals it contains. Which, in general, regulate body functioning. In addition, the application of this novel treatment is very simple.
It begins by washing the hair, as is done regularly, to continue with the application of chocolate on the scalp, still wet, with a gentle massage.
Next, we spread the chocolate all over the hair with the help of a comb. Once applied, let it act for approximately 30 minutes.
For greater effectiveness we can provide heat to the hair during this time. That once elapsed, the hair is rinsed and we can appreciate the results immediately.
