What Your Tension Spots Are Trying To Tell You By Beauty Salon Great Missenden – Call Us On 01494 865005
Stress affects each of us differently. For some, it’s high blood pressure, chronic back pain, or migraines. For others, it’s neck and shoulder pain, stiffness, tightness, or adrenal fatigue.
Stress has so many faces that you may not instantly recognize your tension spot as a result of it. But here’s the interesting part. Researchers estimate that 80% of disease is stress-related.
The reason? We work too much and play too little. When we can’t experience a deep sense of contentment in life, the lack of it is going to show up elsewhere, usually as health problems.
That’s why massage is so beneficial. It works on many different levels to heal both physical and emotional pain. And that wobbly-let-me-just-space-out-for-about-an-hour feeling you get after a massage?
Well, that’s the therapy working on your Central Nervous System to re-program your response to stress and pain. In other words, it’s breaking the old cycle of pain and stress.
Massage lets you experience deep contentment—and that’s the one key ingredient for good health and business success. Yet, we experience it so little.
Those tension spots you keep rubbing and wishing would go away are asking for relief. Just like you are.
Massage gives you back your happy face, releases your body from old patterns of stress and pain, and puts more life in your life.

How To Treat Tight, Dry Facial Skin By Beauty Salon Great Missenden – Call Us On 01494 865005
It feels awful, doesn’t it? Tight, dry facial skin is not only uncomfortable, but it’s actually visible!
Known as dehydrated skin, that tight, dry feeling looks dull. Make-up doesn’t perform nearly as well and can accentuate the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
You may think of dehydrated skin as a winter problem, but the sun can wreak just as much havoc.
What can you do? Monthly facials work the lymphatic system to remove toxins, stimulate circulation and allow for deeper product penetration. They are the foundation from which all other products and services work.
For your home care, make sure to add a serum for dehydrated skin.
Because your skin is lacking water, it needs a boost of water-attracting molecules like naturally occurring hyaluronic acid.
We can help you there. For your moisturizer, it’s important to understand that thicker is not necessarily more effective.
Moisturizers laden with petroleum and mineral oil simply clog the skin, promoting more dryness and wrinkles.
If your skin is tight and dry, it’s asking for help! Set up a skin consult and we’ll get you and your skin talking nice to each other in no time.

Is Your Skin Feeling Grumpy? By Beauty Salon Great Missenden – Call Us On 01494 865005
It’s that wonderful time of year. The weather is changing and your skin is probably grumbling.
What can you do now to prepare for the colder months ahead? Let’s take a look.
How To Transition Your Skincare Needs
Take a look at what you’re using. Does your skin feel tight and dry after you’ve cleansed and moisturized? Then it’s time to swap out your warm weather cleanser for a more hydrating one.
Cool air robs your skin of its natural oils. Without these oils your complexion will become dry and dull. Step up your moisturizer to one that’s more emollient. This will help reduce water loss on the surface of your skin.
Add a hydrating serum to keep skin from feeling tight and dry, and to plump it up. And don’t forget to exfoliate! So many people think this step can be skipped in colder months.
Not so! Exfoliation clears away old dead skin cells that create a dull complexion. It also enhances the effects of ALL your other products.
Add facials! Facials work deeply to hydrate, regulate the immune system, prevent wrinkles, clarify and tone the skin.
And lastly, this is no time to skimp on sunscreen! Protecting your skin from environmental assault is a yearlong commitment.
If you need some assistance transitioning your skincare, just let us know. We’re here to help!
