What's the big deal about skin? No matter your age or gender, your body’s largest organ is your skin. Every gust of wind, cough and blast from an exhaust pipe hits our skin first. Biologically, our skin is our first line of defense. Culturally, skin defines much of our standard for beauty. Bright, youthful skin signals health and vitality. And, like every part of our bodies, skin responds to care and attention. Proper treatment can revitalize skin and slow the aging process, keeping skin healthier, longer. Facials are an essential ingredient of your overall skin care program and you will love the benefits.

A facial is a spa therapy that leaves your skin cleaner, clearer, younger, and truly transformed. Facials help to nourish, heal and revive the skin on a cellular level as well as refine pores and encourage a more even skin tone. Facials involve some massage which aids in blood circulation and lymphatic drainage. The facial massage also helps to relax facial muscles which can slow the onset of wrinkles, puffiness and sagging on the face.

Facials help reduce the impact of sun exposure and other environmental factors as well as incorrect product use. Facials help reduce stress. In our modern culture stress is on the rise which can contribute to premature aging. It can also act as a rosacea trigger as well as aggravate acne and other inflammatory conditions. According to a study published in the Journal of Biomedical Research, facial massage activates your sympathetic nervous system. This shift into a restful state can help to reduce anxiety levels and uplift your mood.

What we put on our skin is just as important as what we put in our body; both affect the well being of our entire body. Most skin care products on the market use excessive heating, stabilizers and aggressive chemical preservatives required to achieve a longer shelf-life. These toxic ingredients have been linked to serious health problems. At Sacred Space Studio we proudly use clean, holistic and certified organic skincare. During your facial, your esthetician will recommend appropriate skin care for home use to help you continue the benefits of our facial and correct ongoing skin care issues.

For optimal results we recommend monthly facials, however you will certainly reap the benefits of a facial treatment four times per year during the change of seasons.

For all of your waxing needs we proudly use Nufree, a natural, self-preserving antibacterial/antimicrobial, anhydrous botanical formula. It contains no wax, no sugar and no honey. We use sanitary disposable applicators and never double-dip.
