Ease muscle tension with a back facial
By Jill O'Donoghue from Killarney Toning and Beauty Studio
Like other facials, having a back facial is relaxing. What is a back facial I hear you ask - well, it's a treatment for people who suffer from acne or have dry itchy dry skin on their back.
With the summer around the corner, and holidays on the horizon, many people suffer from this and as it's such a hard-to-reach area, a back facial gives great results and can solve this for you.
It's a good idea to have one before a special event such as a wedding or a holiday.
There are huge benefits to a back facial. The treatment consists of using Sothys Deep Cleansing Cleanser. The area is exfoliated with an enzymatic exfoliator consisting of glycolic acid, clearing out the blocked pores, which tighten the pore size using an astringent action. A steamer is then applied using ozone action for its anti-bacterial properties. Your skin will be super cleansed and on the way to healing. It's also suitable for anyone with dry skin. The final stage of the back facial is the mask, and depending on your skin type the appropriate mask is applied.
Easing tension
The treatment works directly on your back and your muscles will feel tension releasing. Areas like your neck and shoulders and mid section of your back will benefit from the massaging movements. The treatment uses essential oils that soften and moisturise your skin and nutrients are absorbed by the skin's lower layers.
This will help to reduce acne and make you look and feel great. It is great for skin bumps and pustules as well as pimples and zits that arise from exercise, eating the wrong foods, or just about any other condition.
The overall result will leave your back feeling smooth and looking clear so that you can confidently wear backless tops or swimwear. Continual care to your back and treatments will help diminish blemishes, scars and dark spots.
