We are now well into December, a month filled with frantic shopping, delicious treats and probably, more than one late night. As we try to cram everything into the last few weeks of the year, it’s easy to feel stressed and overwhelmed with all that’s going on.
Wondering how you’ll survive this crazy season? I suggest taking time each day for self-care. Whether it’s morning meditation, an evening yoga class or simply enjoying a cup of tea paired with some deep breathing, taking this time will allow you to feel more calm and ready to face the next item on your to do list or festive celebration and everything in between.
Facial reflexology is another option to help you recharge and may even allow you to catch a few extra zzzzs during your treatment.
So, what is facial reflexology? By touching specific points on the face during the session, your body is encouraged to operate optimally by stimulating its healing mechanisms. It encourages blood circulation and toxin release through the lymphatic system. It allows the relief of muscle tension and mental strain as well. You will experience a rejuvenating effect on your skin and can expect your face to be glowing at the end of your appointment. Perfect for party season, right?
The 45-minute session begins with a consultation followed by a cleanse of your skin. A facial oil is then applied and reflex points on your face are gently touched, helping you to refresh and recharge as your body is brought into balance. The treatment is highly relaxing and you may find yourself floating away during the session while you are tucked snugly under a duvet in a candlelit room with soothing background music. Doesn’t this sound like a great antidote to daily life? One client recently told me she found this treatment more relaxing than a massage!
If this sounds appealing, please get in touch and we’ll work together to restore some calm in your life as the winter solstice approaches. And if you find your December diary too packed for anything else, a January appointment will help get your year started in a calm and renewed way.
