Calm and Safe

When the body is in a constant state of ‘fight or flight’ the skin’s barrier (the Stratum Corneum) is compromised.

DID YOU KNOW…..
Increased Cortisol can slow wound healing by up to 40%! 40%!!!!! That’s huge.
Over time this leads to chronic inflammation, free radical damage and a break down in dermal proteins.

So what we MUST do is Pacify the Skin. Calm the skin. Build up and repair this protective layer.

• Regular nourishing facials - consistency is key

• LED light therapy - to improve wound healing, decrease inflammation and decrease the bacteria aiding towards any break outs. Not to mention the increase of hydration, collagen, elastin.

• Facial Massage, lymphatic drainage.

• Knowing a person’s at home lifestyle to come up with a Home-Care Plan for not only skin care but also regular movement - fresh air, sleep, diet etc.

Prevention, Barrier Health and Holistic Care.

• Anti Break - Out Course •

Back Story -

My client had been suffering from break outs, stemming from hormonal imbalance, and then exasperated by stress which also led to her eczema getting worse.

Due to this she stopped using all production strip back to bare minimum. While this resulted in her eczema becoming under control it left the condition of her skin intensely dry and dehydrated but also her protective layer (her stratum cornium) was stressed and out of balance. This can then cause out breaks.

So our primary job was to pacify and rebalance her stratum corneum so that it could start to protect her better and improve her skin condition to help reduce her break outs.

Her course consisted of:

2 Facials per week for 4 weeks.

Each facial is 45 mins long and each one designed around her needs, which changed as we went along.

Now look at the confidence and happiness in that glowing face. 🥰🥰🥰🥰.

Thank you for providing me with these pictures and allowing me to use them on my grid.

HOW TENSION EFFECTS YOUR SKIN

Facial tension, often a symptom of stress, can negatively affect the skin by compromising the skin barrier.

This can lead to dryness and increased sensitivity. Stress also increases inflammation, which can worsen conditions like acne, rosacea, and eczema.

Reduced circulation and a lack of sleep can result in under-eye bags and dark circles, while repeated muscle movements from tension can contribute to the formation of lines and wrinkles over time.

HOW FACIAL MASSAGE HELPS…

Facial massage will increase circulation and stimulate the lymphatic system. Helping to remove toxins from the skin and increase oxygen and nutrients to the skin.

It also promotes collagen production, which firms the skin, and can help relax facial muscles to reduce stress-related lines and Wrinkles.

LAVA SHELL MASSAGE

As we start to feel the chill of that northerly wind and the days start to get shorter there is a need for warmth and comfort.

In Lava Shell massage we use porcelain shells, that are heated from the inside, to massage the body.

Using a heated medium multiplies all responses by 10.

- Your sense of relaxation

- The relief of aches and discomfort

- The stimulation of circulation

- Unblocking & Increasing positive energy flow

- Relief of arthritic pain.

As soon as the smooth, warm shells are applied to the body you feel at ease, relaxed, comforted and you can drift into your massage.

DM to book your massage.

WHAT OILS DO YOU USE?

I have used the massage and face oils by for over 15 years. They are high quality, they feel soft and non sticky on the skin. They give a silky ‘slip’ on the skin to massage with and smell beautiful.

Using high quality aromatherapy not only transports you to a place of ‘spa like’ relaxation but also continues to act on your body even after the massage has finished.

Whether it’s to achieve deeper relaxation and sense of comfort or to heighten your circulation to aid the release of aching muscles or to stimulate your lymphatic system if you’re feeling sluggish.

We also have an oil specifically for expectant or breast feeding mothers.

I SWEAR BY the Face Treatment Oil. I use it at home before bed and I use it in all of my Bespoke Facials. Intensely nourishing, hydrating and drenching for the skin.

To book your autumn treatment DM me.
