October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month 🙏

We all know at least one person who’s been touched by cancer, and we can relate to how going through the experience; the therapies, the support that person needs, and the effect on the family and friends is intense.

When we work with individuals currently in cancer treatment, or who have had a history with the disease; we alter the way in which we approach our service. The underlying principle is to be Cancer Aware. Keeping this in mind we need to take a bit of a journey with our clients to really understand what their skin and body is telling us at this very moment. In fact, many medical professionals encourage their patients to seek out holistic therapies including massage, facials and Reiki in order to help support them during their treatments and healing.

The benefits to wellness therapies are numerous, and many precautions are taken in consideration of a client’s personal journey regarding their medical and emotional well-being. Chemo, surgery, radiation, hormone targeted therapy and immunotherapy all present with side effects that are carefully considered during your service. Utilizing our beautiful Comfort Zone line, we are proud to offer our Comfort Zone Pro Sleep Treatment and Remedy Facial with the focus first and foremost on nurturing and well-being rather than over stimulating a compromised skin and body that are hypersensitive and unable to quickly return to a state of homeostasis.

These therapeutic benefits include:

✔️Skin hydration

✔️Muscle relaxation and relief of soreness

✔️Sedation or stimulation of the nervous system, depending on the modality used

✔️Deeper respiration

✔️Improved alertness and mental clarity

✔️Improved sleep Faster recovery from anesthesia

✔️Increase a client’s awareness of stress signals

✔️Relief from isolation

✔️Meaningful social interaction

✔️Re-establishes a positive body image

✔️Gives clients a sense of participation in the healing process
