Leave a comment

Schedule time to pamper your senses and boost your health. You’ll be pleased with the many benefits, including:

  • Stress reduction
  • Stimulated nerve function
  • Improved immune system
  • Increased energy

Research has shown the specific techniques of reflexology to be effective and beneficial in many ways. A survey of 170 reflexology studies from 21 countries shows that  reflexology is effective, impacting a variety of physical and  psychological concerns. Reflexology:

  • Creates relaxation
  • Reduces pain
  • Improves blood flow
  • Aids post-operative recovery
  • Enhances medical care
  • Benefits mental health
  • Eases pregnancy, delivery and post-partum effects

In general terms, the benefits of reflexology have to do with the reduction of stress. Because the feet and hands help set the tension level for the rest of the body, they are an easy way to interrupt the stress signal and reset homeostasis, the body’s equilibrium.

Laser Hair Removal Benefits

Leave a comment

Laser hair removal is a common cosmetic procedure in the U.S. Pigment in the hair follicles absorbs a highly-concentrated light to prevent re-growth.

Lasers are useful for removing unwanted hair from the face, leg, arm, underarm, bikini line, and other areas.

Benefits of laser hair removal include:

Precision. Lasers can selectively target dark, coarse hairs while leaving the surrounding skin undamaged.

Speed. Each pulse of the laser takes a fraction of a second and can treat many hairs at the same time. The laser can treat an area approximately the size of a quarter every second. Small areas such as the upper lip can be treated in less than a minute, and large areas, such as the back or legs, may take up to an hour.

Predictability. Ninety percent of patients have permanent hair loss after an average of three to five sessions.

Electrolysis for Permanent Hair Removal

Leave a comment

Today’s medical electrolysis devices destroy the growth center of the hair with chemical or heat energy. After a very fine probe is inserted into the hair follicle, the hair is removed with tweezers…

Electrolysis Carrollton TX
Electrolysis can be an excellent way to get permanent hair removal.

Most areas of the body can be treated with electrolysis, including the eyebrows, face, abdomen, thighs, breasts, and legs. There are generally no permanent side effects, but sometimes a temporary, slight reddening of the skin may occur…

How Many Electrolysis Treatments Will I Need?

The total number of sessions needed to remove hair permanently from a particular area will vary from person to person. Most clients return once a week or every other week as needed.

How Do I Choose an Electrologist?

Electrologists are people who have special training to perform electrolysis. If you are considering electrolysis, it is important that you do your research before committing to sessions. The wrong decision can mean extra sessions and cost along with unnecessary discomfort and scarring.

Know the professional’s qualifications. 

Many states require electrologists to be licensed or certified within the state to practice. If you live in one of those states, be sure the practitioner’s certificate is current and on display. For states that do not regulate electrolysis, look for electrologists who have certification from an accredited electrology school.

Get a consultation. 

Many places will give you a free consultation. During the consultation, be sure all of your questions are answered. Some things you may want to ask about include: how the procedure will feel; how many visits you will likely need; how much each visit costs; how long each session lasts; how long the practitioner has been in business; and the number of clients he or she has treated.
