What is an Acufacial?
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, we see the body as a map that will give us hints as to what is going on inside. This means that just by looking at a person, a TCM practitioner is able to depict how the organs are functioning. This is done by understanding the location, functions and colors pertaining to each organ and the meridian it belongs to. Thus by stimulating points in our face, we are helping the body as a whole.
Acufacials are where we do small needles on the face in order to have effects on how we not only look, but also feel! This also can be done without needles and still has great results. We use a natural facial cleanser, exfoliating mask, and moisturizer for a spa like experience. The idea is to allow more blood flow, rejuvenate the skin and guide the body to homeostasis with the help of our facial cups and jade roller.
What does it treat?
Puffiness, wrinkles, dry skin, acne prone skin, aging, etc. The Acu-points connect us to our bodies normal function which means any excess internal body fluids will be removed from the body. It also helps nourish our skin, blood, muscles and spirit. Looks are not everything, but when you are glowing from the inside out, its hard not to love everything!
