Facial acupuncture

Facial acupuncture is a completely natural way of enhancing facial skin health. In addition, it has numerous benefits to overall health and wellbeing; acupuncture can enhance and stimulate digestion, balance hormones and reduce tension in the body.

Effects on the face include toning muscles, reducing wrinkles and scarring, softening fine lines; improving radiance; reducing signs of aging; boosting collagen; minimising open pores; improving complexion; lifting the face and tightening sagging muscles, including jowls and cheeks.

A gentle, natural, anti-ageing treatment, which not only aims to rejuvenate the skin but also to revitalise the internal body too?  Ideal for anyone, male or female who is interested in managing the skins ageing process without the use of harmful toxins and/or long-lasting abrasive trauma.

A course of facial acupuncture involves 10 weekly treatments, top up sessions at 4-6 weekly can be carried out to continue enhancing the effect and a lovely regular treat.

The benefits?

Cosmetic acupuncture treats the body from inside-out addressing both internal and external problems.

• encourages better circulation which helps improve complexion
• strengthens the structure of the skin giving a smoother, firmer outline to the face
• promotes drainage of fluid retention
• stimulates cells to lay down new collagen which keeps the skin elastic and reduces wrinkles

There may be underlying problems which may be contributing to making your skin look older, these can also be addressed.

What treatment involves.

At the beginning of the treatment session, your overall health will be assessed; including a pulses reading. The acupuncture treatment will include body points on your legs, arms and hands as well as facial points. These are used to strengthen digestion, balance hormones, reduce tension and enhance general wellbeing. The facial acupuncture treatment will then be carried out, and you can then relax and drift away for 20 minutes, to take full benefit of the effects.

Following removal of the needles, a relaxing facial massage is then carried out, using Weleda 100% natural products; and the cooling and soothing jade roller is used to complete the treatment.
