1. Turn up the heat in the bathroom or bedroom.
2. In a plastic squirt Bottle, combine the essential oils with the almond oil, shaking well.
3. Exfoliate the skin using your preferred method (loofah, silk mitt, dry brush, or ayate or sisal fiber)
4. While standing in the shower or bathtub or on a towl in your bedroom, knead the oil mixture generously into the skin on your arms, legs, and torso, avoiding the face and neck.
5. Encase your legs in cellophane beginning at the toes and working up to the thighs. I have found it easier to apply the cellophane when the whole cellophane roll is cut in half or thirds to 2-inch (5-cm) widths. Wrap
6. Wrap your arms, beginning at the hands and moving up to the upper arms. Complete by wrapping the torso.
7. Relax in a warm room for 20 minutes. You can make the tub as comfy as possible with a pillow for your head, or sit on a comfortable chair or bed that you've covered with a towel.
8. Remove the cellophane wrap from your body; shower first with warm water, then with cooler water.
9. Pat skin dry.
