When I first read about this, it raised an eyebrow or two.. a beer soak? I enjoy drinking beer, but a beer soak...? I must know more.

Piva Beer Spa located in Chicago Illinois, says their goal is to provide a relaxing spa and unique day like you have never experienced before. Their site reminds us that beer has been around for thousands of years, and in addition to the traditions of drinking and celebrating with friends and family, our ancestors used beer in other ways. They used to bathe in beer and beer ingredients like brewer's yeast, hops, and barley.

Now, Piva has brought this historic practice back with a 21st century spin.

Spa services at Piva include:

*Beer Soaks

*Massage Services

Swedish Massage

Hot Stone Massage

*Halotherapy

And many other spa packages!

So what are the benefits of a beer spa you ask? Well, besides the obvious that you get to drink beer while relaxing, beer spas are known to improve damaged skin. Piva tells us that due to the antioxidant properties of hops, barley and brewer's yeast this is possible. It improves the elasticity of your skin through the same antioxidants that also have anti-inflammatory properties. Due to the B vitamins, saccharides, yeast and hops, it also hydrates and conditions the skin.

After the stress of planning Thanksgiving and entertaining one-too-many family members, and before the madness of holiday shopping and Christmas dinners, give yourself a little break at Piva. Gift yourself some relaxation this holiday season, and thank us later.
