About Us
Welcome to The Online Scene — where relaxation with Bath Salts meets real life.
My name is Craig Parsons, and I’m the founder of The Online Scene. As an entrepreneur, certified 4x4 trainer, and business coach, life often throws long, intense days my way — packed with pressure, mental fatigue, physical exhaustion, and the weight of constant decision-making. Over the years, I’ve come to deeply value moments of rest and self-care, not as luxuries, but as essentials for sustainable success and well-being.
One of the most powerful tools I’ve discovered for recovery and relaxation? Bath salts.
A Remedy Discovered on the Trail
My journey with bath salts started during my days with Jeep Club SA, tackling rugged trails, conquering steep inclines, and training new 4x4 enthusiasts across South Africa. After full days under the sun — navigating technical terrain, recovering stuck vehicles, and enduring the physical strain of offroad training — my body would be worn out and my muscles aching.
That’s when I began incorporating salt-infused baths into my evening routine. The results were immediate: soothed muscles, reduced inflammation, deep sleep, and a sense of calm that prepared me to take on the next challenge.
Today, whether I’ve been in the bush with my 4x4 team or behind a desk mentoring entrepreneurs, a hot bath with our premium bath salts is my daily reset — helping me transition from high-performance pressure to peaceful presence.
The Birth of Soothing Salts
Soothing Salts was born from my own personal need for something natural, effective, and indulgent — and my belief that everyone deserves to feel restored after a hard day. Our mission is simple: to create and curate the best bath salts available in South Africa, combining quality ingredients with real-life benefits.
Each blend in our collection has been tested by me — not in a lab, but in real life. Whether you need to:
- Soothe sore muscles after a tough training session
- Relax your mind after a high-stress business day
- Or simply carve out a moment of calm in your busy routine
— we’ve got a product for you.
Why Bath Salts Matter
In our fast-paced world, stress is everywhere. As someone who runs businesses, mentors others, and trains offroad enthusiasts, I know how easy it is to neglect your own health. But over time, chronic stress takes its toll. That’s why I treat my salt bath not as a treat, but as a daily ritual of endurance and self-preservation.
Bath salts help me:
- Detoxify and rebalance after long days on the road or in the boardroom
- Recover faster, both physically and mentally
- Sleep deeper, so I’m fully recharged for the next day
- Stay focused and energised, without burning out
This isn't just about pampering — it's about performance and longevity.
