#29 Mud treatment

I researched spas that have mud baths.  They are not very popular in the Midwest, I couldn't find any in Ohio.  I found one 8 hours away in PA. I couldn't rationalize spending all that time and money.  I settled for the next best thing. Kenneth's Day spa on Mill Run has a Baltic Black Mud Body Treatment: The formula for this detoxifying treatment centers on rare fresh water black silts. It improves skin texture, clarity and overall health by removing pore-blocking impurities and rough, flaky patches. Ideal for dry or oily skin.
I wanted to try a mud treatment for one reason. MANY, MANY years ago. I went with some friends to see Jimmy Buffett concert at Buckeye Lake-Legend Valley.  This time it was a total MONSOON!! If you know Legend Valley then you know that the parking lot is a field. People camp out all day as with most Buffett Concerts. Before the concert we were caked in mud up to our butts.  Had a rough time getting out of the field, poor Ken and Nat's car, I can't imagine what it looked like when we got home.  I remember leaving my shoes.  But I also remember my legs were the smoothest ever for a month.
I am not a person who spends much time on myself, with beauty treatments and such stuff. I'm coming around to this way of thinking.  LOL I like little splurges every once in a while, but it can add up quick.
For all this years, it has always been about my girls. I don't say that for pity or sympathy or whatever. That is what we do. Mothers, we give to our kids.  Some moms can figure a way to balance things better, I couldn't, so I focused on the girls.
I had the Baltic Black Mud Body treatment today.  I have to say it was pretty great. My skin is soft and smooth. I would definitely do it again.
If you know of any spas with real mud baths close to Ohio, please leave a message below.
I am crossing #29 off of my list.
