Specialties
As a holistic esthetician, I help identify the source of specific factors that put stress on the health of your skin, the very cause of premature aging. Through the power of touch, I take my clients to a healthy state of wellbeing and tranquility. My Anti-Aging Training includes the techniques of one of the leading authorities of Advanced Clinical Gua Sha Facial Rejuvenation, Dr. Ping Zhang of the Nefeli Institute. I activate the inner vitality of your face in multiple levels with my natural, needle-free use of a Gemstone Facial Massage Wand to enliven the complexion by invigorating certain energy points along the face. This gentle stimulation promotes lymph drainage by detoxing the channel system, increases blood circulation, tones muscles by lifting sagging skin as well as re-sculpting the musculature of the face. Additional beauty benefits of the treatments include refinement of the brow, cheek, and jawline contours, reduction in the visibility of wrinkles, dark eye circles, puffy eyes, as well as improvement in overall appearance. From an anti-aging perspective, it is not just a skin-deep treatment that has a temporary effect. It is an energetic workout to promote youth and balancing from within by invigorating the skin's own healing ability to regenerate, firm and lift the whole face.
