STEAM – A GIRLS NEXT BEST FRIEND.

For centuries, the world’s great healers considered heating the body a potent and important technique for creating health and overcoming 
illness. Modern research shows that during steam treatment we 
experience an increase in our white blood cell count, 
lymphatic drainage, and circulation. The skin is 
exercised; the pores open and toxins are 
naturally moved out of the body.

Benefits of steam therapy to the body include:-

Deep relaxation of mind and body

Youthful look that lasts for hours after treatment 

Reduced swelling

Increased metabolism

Relaxed muscles

Clear sinuses and reduced congestion

Warm, soft, hydrated skin

Loosened fatty tissue and a breakdown in cellulite

Improved absorption of nutrients from topical treatments

A boost to the immune system as the heat slows the growth rate of harmful bacteria and viruses

For maximum results, it is important to keep your head cool and the body supine. It is important for you to sweat. 

Many people, in this sedentary age, simply don’t sweat enough, making sweat bathing particularly desirable now. 

Antiperspirants, artificial environments, synthetic clothing, synthetic skin care products and a physically idle lifestyle all conspire to clog skin pores and inhibit the healthy flow of sweat.

Full-body steam therapy treatments allow an aesthetician the option to significantly enhance many full-body skincare treatments. 

The skin is one system (organ) which covers the surface of the entire body and full-body steam treatments allows treatment of the total surface of the skin as well as the ability to focus on specific areas of the skin, for example the legs.

Adding stress reduction/management as part of a total aesthetic skincare program is of great value.
