Face Body Day Spa and Beauty Salon

OK, yeah, so claiming that a relaxation massage can save your relationships is a big call. And then on top of that you can apparently conquer your to-do list like it’s nobody’s business. Sounds extreme, but the good news is – it’s totally true!! Imagine you’re in this situation for a minute here. You’re stressed. You have so much to do when you get home but first you need to make it through your day at work. You didn’t sleep well last night, and your energy is low. If someone looks at you the wrong way, you’re going to start breaking fingers. Whoops! Someone looked at you the wrong way – avert your eyes, quick! Your boss is being difficult, and your work bestie is having man trouble and hasn’t stopped man-bashing for the last hour. Your husband has already messaged you 3 times – first asking ifyou’d ironed his work shirt for today, second to ask if he had any clean undies left, and third, reminding you that he’s going out for drinks with the boys after work, so he won’t be able to take...

Why Self Care? One of the most common statements we hear in the Spa, is how busy life is and how our clients wish they could just slow down more often. It’s honestly so common!!! And we can completely relate. We are just like you! We have work, family commitments, events, functions, appointments, exercise to fit in and it can make life really overwhelming sometimes. Then if you’re a parent, you’ve also got your little humans thrown into the mix as well. And let’s be honest, there’s only so much each of us can give. At some point, we have to slow it down and recuperate not just our bodies, but our minds as well. Self care allows you to fill your own cup up. It’s so important to slow down, relax and unwind at least once a week (once a day is even better!!). It allows your mind to clear, it enables you to feel more energised and be more focused. By taking care of yourself first, you can be a better person for those around you. So how can you practice self care I hear you say? Well there’s...

And we happen to be in the business of making you feel beautiful Can we talk matter-of-factly for a minute? I want to be real and vulnerable with you. Have you ever felt like spending money on something like a facial, massage or anti-aging treatment is an expense you can’t justify? It’s ‘unnecessary money being spent.’ I’m being 100% real here for a moment – work with me on this. There is an assumption out there that anyone who runs a business is only after making money. And so, with a luxury service such as beauty, why would anyone justify spending money on something they don’t NEED. I mean sure, there are people with skin conditions who want to have them addressed and there are stressed out people who NEED to have relaxing massages to ease their tension headaches. But if there’s nothing MAJOR to address, why should I spend that money on something I don’t need? Hmmm, good question! Yes, a lot of our services DO help correct a lot of concerns people have and they DO have them leaving t...

We love Hot Stone Massage, especially in the cooler months. It’s not only a great way to relax and revive sore muscles, but there’s also some amazing therapeutic effects from the treatment. Hot Stone Massage provides a very healing and effective experience. The hot stones expand blood vessels, which increases blood flow throughout the body allowing muscles to be flooded with nutrients. The hot stones can have a sedative effect that can help to relieve chronic pain, reduce stress and promote deep relaxation. It is thought to have originated in China almost 2,000 years ago. Since then, the technique of using stones for massage and healing has been used in many different cultures, including the Americas, Africa, Egypt, and India. A hot stone massage uses a combination of both the therapists hands, warm oils and the basalt stones to relax the muscles and ease tension. Stones are placed in various points on the body as well, including the back, hands and feet, where the heat is penetrating ...

Winter is here which means it’s that time of year where we really need to nourish and care for our skin. With shorter days and less Vitamin D from the sun, it’s crucial we look at supporting our skin both internally and externally. Winter often brings dry, flakey and sometimes itchy skin, but that doesn’t mean you have to suffer. Some of the best things you can do to support your skin in Winter is: Dry body brushing before you shower to stimulate the lymphatic system and get the blood flowing. Make sure your shower water is warm and not too hot. Hot water although it can feel really nice, can also have a damaging effect on the skin over time. Keep your skin on your face and body moisturised. The best time to apply your moisturiser is straight after you shower. This will allow the skin to soak up the moisture and make it easier for you to apply. Also look at keeping a small tube of moisturiser in your handbag for those crisp and windy days, so you can reapply to your face, lips and even...

Self care…do you make it a priority? Self   care  is a key ingredient to maintain a healthy relationship with yourself as it produces positive feelings, relaxes your state and boosts your confidence.  Self   care  is necessary to remind yourself that your needs as an individual matter and are important. Self- care ensures that you stay sharp mentally, motivated, positive and healthy. Self care is definitely becoming a buzzword of society and it’s with good reason. I personally am so glad it’s something that everyone is becoming more conscious of. One of the reasons many of us become Beauty or Spa Therapists is because we want to help others with their own personal self care. It’s rewarding for us to be able to see the emotional and physical changes time out for relaxation can create. With life being so ‘on’ and ‘go, go, go’ all the time, it’s no wonder we are feeling more stressed, more anxious, more busy and more neglected than ever. So many of us wear many hat...
