What You Will Need
- ❤ Purchase 3 or 4 candles, ideally with your significant other’s favorite scent. Arrange them around the bath and create a romantic setting.
- ❤ Get Kneipp herbal bath essential oil – lavender for balancing or soothing muscle juniper, or a bathing ball – a fast dissolving orb – rose petal is a favourite. These items are available at bathing stores such as Sabon, Bed, Bath and Beyond, Bath and Body Works, The Body Works, and Frontier Coop. Your local Walgreens, Walmart, or CVS will also carry a line of aromatherapy salts for the bath. At a minimum, some inexpensive Epsom salts will work fine and only cost about $4.00.
- ❤ Try some aromatherapy and select a preferred scent.
- ❤ Pick up a loofah brush or sponge for exfoliation. It also works as a body massager in the bath.
- ❤ Gather their favourite lush towels in their favourite color and arrange them artfully within the room.
- ❤ Depending on your budget, you may decide to purchase a luxurious new robe and slippers for after the bath
Spa Butler Duties

- ❤ Artfully arrange the towels
