Facials:

The lymphatic system plays a vital role in the body by regulating the immune system.  The lymph system, which is carried through a colorless fluid, runs alongside the blood vessel system.  The lymph system becomes blocked, fluid builds up and the entire system can become toxic.  Lymphatic drainage clears the blockages, which helps remove metabolic wastes through the lymph nodes situated around the face and neck.  A facial also has a calming effect on the nervous system and helps reduce stress and tension.

The hype of the beauty industry has most people believing that a facial is nothing more than a pampering indulgence.  The health benefits of a facial far outweigh the beauty benefits.  The major health benefits are regulation of the immune system, by strengthening and purifying.  Also, detoxifying, reducing fluid build-up, exfoliation, and stress relief.  In tandem, however, they produce the healthy glow and radiance we all want.  Great for both woman and men and a good introduction to proper skin care for teenagers.

Dermalight Treatments:

Enjoy the benefits of the latest anti-aging technology,  Developed by NASA.  Astronauts where not able to heal injuries, because of zero gravity in space.  This light was found to penetrate down through all the layers of the skin and into the power house of the cells,  thus, stimulating the body's own healing power.  Anti-aging, firming the skin, cell renovation through increasing oxygenation to the skin, treats hyper pigmentation, scaring, rashes, burns, acne, wrinkles and rosacea 10 minutes. $10.00

 

Microdermabrasion:

Microdermabrasion is the mechanical exfoliation that removes the uppermost layer of dead skin cells from the face.  Also known as particle resurfacing, power peel, derma-peel or Parisian peel.  There is no down-time for the skin to recover.  It leaves skin with a fresher more glowing look.  Diminishes sun damage, fine line and wrinkles, enlarged pores, and coarse textured skin.  It makes it easy for high-tech skin care products to actually penetrate into the deeper layers of the skin and help build collagen, which gives skin its youthful appearance.30 minutes $45.00

 

Soy Paratreatments

Paraffin wax has a very high heat capacity, meaning it is able to absorb and retain a great amount of heat.  The heat that goes into melting the paraffin comes out when it solidifies into a comforting custom fitted warm "glove" coating, thus transferring the deep heat into joints.  Each dip delivers a layer of fast acting, and drug free results.  At the same time, the heat opens pores and increases circulation in the skin.  The warm wax also moisturizes for healthier looking softer skin.  This is why paraffin is so beneficial.  Also, soothe chronic arthritis joint pain, relax stiff muscles, increase range of motion.  Our wax is comprised of the highest quality of soy and beeswax and is petroleum free.  Soy and bee's wax is completely natural, and is made from renewable resources.  We also only burn soy candles for ambience.30 minutes $35.00

 

Massage

There's no denying the power of bodywork.  Regardless of the adjectives we assign to it (pampering, rejuvenating, therapeutic) or the reason we seek it out (a luxurious treat, stress relief, pain management), massage can be a powerful ally in your health-care regime.  Experts estimate that upwards of ninety percent of disease is stress related.  And perhaps nothing ages us faster, internally and externally, than high stress.  this translates into decreased anxiety, enhanced sleep quality, greater energy, improved concentration, increased circulation, releases endorphins-amino acids that work as the body's natural painkiller.  In response to massage, specific physiological and chemical changes cascade throughout the body, with profound effects.  Research continues to show the enormous benefits of touch.

Aromatherapy

Aromatherapy has been used for centuries.  It is the practice of using the "essence" of a plant for psychological and physical well being.  These essential oils are pure.  Perfume oils know as FO's"s are not the same.  They contain unnatural chemicals and do not provide any therapeutic benefit.  Aromatherapy can stir the spirit, focus the mind and promote well being.  Pure essential oils can be added to base oils, lotions or creams to create a customized treatment.

Thus, allowing more blood flow into the muscle.  This reduces pain.  The flow of warm water loosens muscle tension, relieves pressure on surrounding nerves, joints and blood vessels.  Stimulates healthy circulation, and digestion and improves skin tone.  The hygienic method we use, the water is drained and the unit and the jet lines are sanitized between each client
