Facial acupuncture
Used regularly, facial acupuncture is a great natural alternative to botox and more invasive treatments. It can help to:
- improve muscle tone
- reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
- improve circulation and give the skin a lovely glow
- enhance your overall health and wellbeing (I include suitable body points to help address any internal disharmonies which might be contributing to facial issues such as sagging jowels, redness, dark circles, acne, dry skin etc).
I incorporate Celluma LED light therapy into my treatments to maximise results. Research has shown that low level light therapy can help to increase circulation, accelerate tissue repair, kill acne bacteria, decrease inflammation, improve skin tone, texture and clarity.
It is up to the client how any treatments they would like – from a few sessions in the run up to a special occasion to regular treatments throughout the year.
Results may be evident after the first session (and you should leave feeling relaxed and glowing), although improvements are usually clearer after a minimum of 3 treatments. For optimal results, a course of 10 weekly treatments is recommended, followed by maintenance treatments every 4-6 weeks.
What will happen at my initial session?
At our first session, I will undertake a thorough consultation so as to gain an understanding of your overall health. This will enable me to tailor the treatments to you as an individual, so you gain maximum benefit from them.
Alongside points on your face I will use a few well chosen body points, which will help to address any underlying disharmonies which could be contributing to any facial issues, alongside leaving you feeling under-par.
Once all the needles have been inserted, the Celluma light therapy device is positioned over the face whilst you relax. Following removal of the needles, a soothing face mask is applied, then the treatment ends with facial cupping and a relaxing facial massage.
