Body Wraps is originally a treatment where Ace bandages or plastic wrap is tightly wrapped around the body to cause quick weight loss through vasodilation. It is a type of beauty treatment intended to result in a reduction in body measurements, involving the application of skin-cleansing ingredients to the body, which is then wrapped in hot bandages.   
                        
There are different types of "slimming" Body Wraps, that result in the temporary loss of weight and inches, at some spas. But today a Body Wrap in a spa is more likely to be treatment where you’re slathered with a body mask made of algae, seaweed, mud, clay, lotion or cream, then wrapped for twenty minutes to keep you warm. Later the product is rinsed off. The Body Wrap usually ends with an application of lotion.This Body Wrap treatment is sometimes called a body cocoon or body mask.

Body Wrap begins with exfoliation through dry brushing or a salt scrub. Body wraps that use algae, seaweed, mud or clay are detox treatments that help rid the body of toxins through metabolic stimulation. Body wraps using Shea butter and rich lotions are hydrating treatments geared towards softening the skin.
