“Healing is not a science, but the intuitive art of wooing nature.” -W.H. Auden

The power of healing touch is nothing to look over, itś the strongest power you can give and receive.

Modern life has become increasingly mechanized as we add more and more technology to our life In our quest for efficiency and advancement we often end up physically isolating ourselves. A video chat with people across the country allows us to share ideas, but not something as simple as a touch.  As well as, the last years with covid we have been told to stay away from each other and most of us are craving the opposite!

The loss of this important facet to human life should be of concern, and luckily the esthetics world is in a wonderful position to reintroduce therapeutic touch to many people’s lives.

In a touch deprived, isolated, digital society the time spent at the office of a trusted esthetician is a haven for an important moment of human, healing interaction. This is an arena where touch is eagerly permitted. An esthetician’s bed may be one of the few places the client receives a healing touch in their daily life.

Additionally the way the you get touched during a facial can communicate safety and compassion. Skin is an emotional conductor.  Each client i welcome at Pure Salon is a unique individual, not a number or a sales goal, and they should be treated with care and love.

In a 2008 Japanese study it was found that a 15 minute facial massage treatment was able to decrease psychological distress, boost mood, and activate the body to a heightened state following the treatment. During the massage the parasympathetic nervous system was activated and enhanced. The parasympathetic nervous system controls the body functions during rest and relaxation, and oversees many unconscious body processes. After facial massage the sympathetic nervous system was boosted. (This is the system that is involved with conscious action and fight/flight).

Not only the compassion and communication of the touch matter, but techniques varying from light to deep pressure can have different benefits to the various layers of the epidermis, dermis and supportive tissues. A trained professional will know when to use each type of touch and fit them to the clientś skin.

The massage is one of the parts during a facial is the part where people have the opportunity to totally let go and drift away.
