Facial Awakening in NW3
Ruth’s system of Holistic Facial Rejuvenation

A new concept using micro-current facial toning with argan oil which is rich in vitamin E and known for its anti-ageing properties.

Argan blends with essential oils have been created to suit individual skin types.

This will be followed by gentle cosmetic acupuncture point stimulation on the face and body, which can be applied using either very fine needles or acupressure and tens (needle free stimulation) directed at the acupuncture points.

Chinese herbal supplements may be prescribed if wished according to correct underlying imbalances in the body, and nourish the entire system. These can promote healthy glowing skin, nourish dryness, reduce puffiness or clear impurities that lead to problem skin.

The prescription of acupuncture points on the face and body acts to underpin the micro-current therapy by promoting blood circulation and oxygenating the skin, aiding lymphatic drainage and brightening the complexion.

How does it work?

The prescription of acupuncture points on the face and body acts to underpin the microcurrent therapy by promoting blood circulation and oxygenating the skin, aiding lymphatic drainage and brightening the complexion.

Chinese herbal supplements are prescribed according to the individual’s diagnosis to correct underlying imbalances in the body, and to nourish the entire system. They can promote healthy glowing skin, nourish dryness, reduce puffiness or clear impurities that lead to problem skin.

Facial Micro-current uses gentle electric current that recharges the facial tissues.

Our body’s own current works in harmony with the electrical impulses the micro-current machine emits. The machine used in this procedure sends painless impulses to the facial muscles thus helping them to relax and recover their strength and re-educate them to return to their original position.

Argan oil reduces fine lines by bringing water to the lipid layer and aiding cell structure and renewal. Inflammation and redness are reduced due to naturally present plant sterols while high levels of vitamin E help neutralise free-radicals thus protecting the skin from environmental damage. Saponins soften the skin and moisten dryness.

The Moroccan materia medica recommends the use of argan oil to treat acne, eczema, psoriasis and to reduce scarring.

A free sample of argan oil will be given after the first session, used twice daily this will enhance results.

History

Chinese medicine has been used for over 3000 years. Diagnosis is made using tongue and pulse analysis and by taking a complete medical background. The body is seen as a connected system of meridians and organs. Treatment is used to balance their energy.

Argan oil has been used by Berber women for centuries to nourish their hair skin and nails. It is produced from the seed of the Argan tree that only grows in south west Morocco. Believed to date back to the Tertiary period, only 860.000 hectares remain. The trees are protected by UNESCO as a Biosphere Heritage and ethical trade production of this oil contributes to the conservation of the tree.

In 1980, Thomas W. Wing. D.C.N.D., LAc. a fifth generation Chinese Doctor was credited with introducing a microcurrent instrument which was found to be beneficial in the treatment of muscles facial toning and wrinkle reduction. At that time it had been used to treat patients with Bell’s Palsy, a form of facial paralysis, and stroke. Since the early 1990’s, microcurrent facial treatment has been adapted for use the cosmetic field.
