"People have forgotten the brilliant tradition of the Irish seaweed bath" Richard McManus
George asked:
- "What's the shelf life of the product?"
"We fresh freeze it and it's delivered in an insulated cooler bag. So it will last all year round so long as it's frozen."
- "What are the benefits of a seaweed bath?
"Great for skincare. Getting rid of difficulties from dry skin: ezcema, psoriasis, ..." Richard McManus
- How often should we take one?"
"Our ancestors used to take a seaweed bath once a season, every quarter." Richard McManus
- "Where do you get it?"
Donegal's Burtonport is one of the locations where the fresh seaweed is harvested in Summer when the biomass is greatest . Typically the seaweed stays submerged except during high spring tide and when the moon is full.
- "Have we forgotten how fabulous it was to lie back in the bath?"
- "How do we buy it?" => Get the home spa experience here.
Gerard Tannam of Island Bridge thoughts on the Cara Mara home spa experience:
- "Indulge once a month"
- "You're getting the same kind of benefits as you would on the West Coast"
- "The website does a great job of giving you an immediate sense of what it's about"
