Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture

Acupuncture has been used for over 5000 years to treat a wide range of conditions. The Chinese have known that beauty comes from the inside and as early as the Sung Dynasty (960AD-1270AD) acupuncture practices have been employed for the Empress and the court concubines.
Having proven itself with billions of people, acupuncture has survived the test of time.

The use of acupuncture in cosmetology, especially in preventing and reducing wrinkles has already attracted a lot of attention in Japan, Hong Kong and Sweden. The effectiveness of acupuncture is due to its direct manipulation of the body?s energy system - balancing, removing blockages or adding energy when necessary. A 1996 report in the International Journal or Clinical Acupuncture reported that among 300 cases treated with Facial Acupuncture, 90% had marked effects with one course of treatment.

When you receive a Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture treatment you are in for a real treat! First your acupuncturist will consult with you to determine what concerns you have regarding your facial appearance. Then with Chinese diagnostics she will devise a customized treatment plan to not only enhance and rejuvenate your skin and facial tone but also to treat your entire system, improving health and vitality.

The treatment begins with gentle cleansing with deliciously scented herbal lotions and hot towels. Next fine needles are inserted into specific facial areas and left in place for 20 to 30 minutes while you rest and float away listening to soothing music. When the needles are removed you will receive a stimulating facial massage, with antioxidant essential oils and special gua sha jade board toning and rolling. Finally, more hot towels, tonifying herbal hydrosols and secret Chinese facial cream for a pearly, smooth complexion.

You will truly feel pampered and refreshed and this is a pampering treatment with results that last! Go home and look in the mirror and see how time has been erased from your face with just one treatment!
Generally a course of treatments consists of 12 sessions of about 45 minutes each. The effects are most noticeable and lasting on about the 7th session. Each person responds differently but looking 5 to 10 years younger is common! Occasional maintenance sessions can prolong results for another 5 to 10 years.

Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture is an excellent alternative to cosmetic surgery. Not only is it much less costly, it also has no dangerous side effects or risks and can also help to treat other conditions at the same time.
