Ahh. Watch your stress melt away. Facials provide stress relief because of the techniques used and elements incorporated into the treatments.

Facials begin with a face massage, which relaxes your face muscles by stimulating pressure points. Throughout the process, your sympathetic nervous system settles down and acts as a mood booster. Additional potential benefits to this stress relief: organ function and health. Who knew?

Our sinuses seem to be gatekeepers to physical health. They impact how our head, ears and nose feel, so sensitivity and pain relief are major concerns when we’re less than 100%. Facials treat these maladies in a few different ways.

Your sinuses mainly get a pick-me-up because of the massage part of facial treatments. The attention to pressure points stimulates sinus drainage. This is because of the combination of movement and warmth around the sinus cavities, which allows mucous to break up. Of course, you can boost the effect even more with the aromatics in the creams and moisturizers used in your treatment.
