Thinking about anti-aging

I started thinking about aging and I starting thinking about what that means.

Personally, to me, what is 55 now? What is 65?

I am 55 and do I have crows feet, yes? Is my body changing a little bit, for sure?

But, I also feel like I am young on a lot of levels.

In some ways getting older has power, right?

You learn more of who you are who you want to be in the world and who you want to put your energy into.

It is easier to say no.

All my thinking about this has brought me to looking into how I approach this subject in the treatment room.

How, I take a holistic approach to my facial treatments by creating facials and use modalities that help stimulate collagen and elasticity.

By doing lymphatic drainage to help facilitate your bodies natural healing process.

By using guasha to help tone muscles and create circulation as well.

I am turning 56 in three weeks and I have a gift for you, my newest facial cleanser concoction.

Come in and experience this rich, moisturizing, organic, preservative free cleanser.

Book soon while supplies last.

As always,
