Detox, Circulation & Lymphatic Support — Wrapped Into One.
Herbal Niacin Detox Body Wraps in South San Jose — a deeply stimulating herbal body wrap designed to support circulation, lymphatic drainage, detoxification pathways, and full-body relaxation.
What Is A Herbal Niacin Detox Body Wrap?
This is not a sweat wrap. In fact, the goal is actually not to sweat. The Herbal Niacin Detox Body Wrap is a circulation and detoxification support treatment designed to help stimulate circulation, lymphatic drainage, detoxification pathways, tissue oxygenation, and relaxation.
The wrap uses a powerful niacin-based cream applied directly to the body and wrapped closely to encourage deeper absorption. Natural inch loss can happen as a side effect of detoxification, lymphatic movement, reduced inflammation, improved circulation, and fluid movement — but at The Poop Doctor, the main focus is heavy metal detoxification support and lymphatic drainage.
My body NEEDS this.
This is not just an inch-loss wrap. It is circulation, lymphatic, and detox support.
Wellness + beauty + body reset
This Wrap Was Never Originally Designed For Weight Loss.
One of the most fascinating things about this wrap is actually how it came to be.
The original formula was reportedly developed by a biochemist associated with UCLA Medical Center who was searching for a way to improve circulation and lymphatic flow in patients with diabetes and other conditions affecting circulation—particularly in the lower extremities.
The formula incorporated niacin (vitamin B3), known for its ability to increase blood flow to the skin and produce its characteristic warm, flushing sensation.
But something unexpected happened: patients were also losing measurable inches in the areas being treated.
What began as an effort to support circulation was eventually repurposed as an “inch-loss” body wrap and used throughout the professional wellness and spa industry for decades.
At The Poop Doctor, we’ve brought the treatment back to its wellness-focused roots and given it a new purpose. Rather than focusing on inch loss, we’ve repurposed the traditional wrap as our Heavy Metal Detox Body Wrap, using the niacin-based formula for its circulation-boosting effects as part of a protocol designed to support the body’s natural detoxification and elimination pathways.
Any inch loss?
That’s a bonus—not the goal.
Who Can Benefit From A Detox Body Wrap?
This wrap may benefit people who feel inflamed, puffy, sluggish, toxic, heavy, physically stuck, energetically stuck, or ready for a relaxing but activating detox experience.
Wellness-Minded Women
For clients who want detox support that also feels beautiful and restorative.

How Does The Wrap Work?
The wrap works primarily through circulation stimulation. The niacin in the cream helps dilate capillaries and increase blood flow to the skin and tissues. As circulation increases, many people believe the body may better support detoxification pathways, lymphatic movement, tissue oxygenation, cellular nourishment, and waste removal.
The wrap creates a distinctive warm + cool “icy hot” sensation. Many clients describe it as tingling, warming, cooling, activating, and deeply stimulating. Once the cream is applied, the body is wrapped for approximately 60 minutes while the active ingredients continue absorbing.
Warm, cool, tingly, and seriously activating.

Wait… Why Does My Skin Turn Red?
One of the most common reactions during the wrap is called the niacin flush. It can look similar to a sunburn, redness, warmth, or blotchy pink/red skin — and it is a normal circulation response.
Important note: If you have an important event the next day, let us know beforehand. We can reduce the amount of niacin used so the flush is milder, fades faster, or may not trigger at all.
What Can I Expect During My Wrap?
For comfort, avoid eating within 1 hour before your wrap session. We also strongly recommend showering before your wrap so the cream can absorb cleanly into the skin.
Your session begins with a full-body exfoliation using a papaya enzyme scrub to gently remove dead skin cells and help stimulate lymphatic circulation. Next, our niacin herbal cream is applied to the skin before your body is comfortably wrapped.
You’ll then relax for approximately 60 minutes while the herbal cream gets to work. Most clients experience a unique cool-to-warm, “icy hot” sensation as the niacin encourages capillary dilation and increased circulation, supporting healthy lymphatic flow throughout the body.
After your wrap, your skin is left feeling incredibly soft, refreshed, and revitalized.

Leave the cream on as long as possible afterward
Ideally, keep it on the rest of the day or overnight if possible
Important aftercare: Drink plenty of water after your wrap. Many clients feel the body continues flushing and detoxifying over the next 24–48 hours. If you take niacin or B vitamins, you may choose to pause them the day of and day after your wrap.
