The benefits of a Holistic Facial Massage

• Reduces feeling of stress
• Encourages deep physical and mental relaxation
• Acupressure helps to relax facial and scalp muscles, aiding in the release of tension and pain
• A feeling of wellbeing develops, as pain relieving endorphins and the mood enhancing chemical serotonin is released 
• Organic essential oils when used, have a beneficial effect on the nervous system, calming, uplifting and soothing
• Anti-Ageing - regenerates and rejuvenates skin and muscle tissue, helping to delay as well as reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Skin tone and texture is also improved, resulting in a smoother, fresher, clearer skin

WHAT IS A HOLISTIC FACIAL MASSAGE?
A Holistic Facial Massage combines Acupressure, Facial Massage and Lymphatic Drainage Techniques. Acupressure reduces tension and encourages relaxation throughout the entire body through the stimulation of specific acupressure points on the face and scalp using ancient Chinese Medicine techniques.

Using organic essential oils or creams, the massage of the face further encourages deep relaxation as well as increasing blood circulation, improving the tone, texture and health of skin and muscle tissue. The Treatment involves the face, neck, chest, shoulders and scalp. Organic essential oils are tailored to each individual’s needs. Alternatively, a simple organic facial massage cream can be used.

WHO CAN BENEFIT FROM A HOLISTIC FACIAL MASSAGE?
Almost everyone can benefit from a Holistic Facial Massage. The treatment however would not be suitable for young children or for people with serious medical conditions where massage of any kind is contra-indicated (eg cancer).

WHAT HAPPENS IN A TREATMENT?
Treatment begins with a short consultation. This is necessary in order to establish if there are any medical reasons/contra-indications why the client may not be suited to treatment.  The client will be lying comfortably on a massage bed, and covered in a blanket.

The treatment itself begins with a double cleanse and tone, using natural organic products suited to the clients skin type. When complete, the acupressure and massage treatment will begin and last up to 40 minutes. This will be followed by the application of a healing mask, suited to the clients own skin type. After removal, the skin will be gently toned and moisturized.

At the end of treatment, the client will have the option to leave the massage oil or cream on the skin or alternatively the client may wish to have the oil removed.  Aftercare and homecare advice is given. The treatment itself is carried out in a very relaxing environment with soothing background music.
