Facial Reflexology

I trained with Ziggie Bergman and the London School of Facial Reflexology - The leading ITEC Facial Reflexology courses worldwide.

The Benefits of Facial Reflexology

Aims to relieve the effects of stress.

Improves circulation to the face and head area, thereby speeding up the exchange of oxygen, nutrients, carbon dioxide and waste products.

Improves lymphatic drainage aiding the removal of waste products and toxins.

Allows the therapist to gain an understanding , through reflexes out of balance, of what is going on within the body's internal organs, central nervous system and neuro-biological system by looking at the face and skin.

Relieves tension in the muscle tissue.

Relieves mental strain and improves concentration.

Helps to relieve sinusitis and congestion.

Has a direct rejuvenating effect on the skin and leaves the face glowing and radiant.

Can bring about a general feeling of calmness and relaxation.

Facial oil - Elixir Serum

I use Zone Face Lift Facial Elixir, created by Ziggie Bergman, which is designed for all skin types. All ingredients are Vegan Friendly and Cruelty Free and are made in the UK by hand, not by machines. 100% Organic and Natural ingredients are used, which are ethically sourced and traceable.

Some key ingredients:

Safflower Oil (o) (carthamus tinctorius) - Safflower has a high content of oleic acid and therefore helps to restore damaged skin and improve tone

Peach Oil (o) (Prunus persica) Peach oil is sumptuous oil rich in hydrating fatty acids. It is particularly helpful to restore elasticity and is recommended for dry, ageing or sensitive skin with thread veins.

Coconut Oil (Cocos Nuciferus) A nutrient rich, naturally hypo-allergenic natural oil to hydrate and soothe. Said to increase energy levels, it also has antibacterial properties.

Prickly Pear (Opuntia ficus-indica) A powerful moisturiser and a light, stable and versatile oil, which absorbs easily and quickly into the skin and improves skin elasticity.

Camelina Oil (Camelina sativa) High in protective antioxidants and rich in vitamin E to condition and protect the skin. It is believed to have anti-inflammatory properties.

Macadamia Oil (Macadamia Ternifolia) Helps to calm and soothe irritated skin and is an excellent anti-inflammatory. Geranium Oil (o) (Pelargonium Graveolens) This sweet smelling oil was used by the Egyptians to promote radiant skin. It can help to alleviate anxiety and reduce symptoms of acne.
