In this clip we're going show how the viche shower is operated. What I want to do, before my client even comes in, I want to test the temperature. So, I'm going to turn it on and let it get warm before she lays down, because we certainly don't want to shock her with a mess of cold water. That is not going to be a fun spa treatment for our guest. So, we're going to get it to the right temperature. It feels great right now. We're going to keep all of our shower heads in line and we're going to swing it over to our guest. And, right now its basically rinsing off any salt that we have on her. So we want to help it rinse off. And while this is hitting her, we're going to allow that to be the relaxation portion. I'm going to turn on my hand-held operated shower head. Also, I want to test for temperature, don't forget, or else you're really going to give someone the shock of their lives and they're not going to remember you for your great service. We're just going to do small circular movements all over her body to rinse off the salts.
