Treatment Aftercare
MASSAGE
Drink Water
During a massage, built-up toxins are released. That’s great, but they need to be expelled from your body. Your kidneys do the brilliant job of eliminating toxins from your system and they need water to work and push these free radicals out.
Stay Relaxed
One of the best ways to capitalise on the post-massage wonderful feeling is to actively choose to stay relaxed. Don’t rush back out into normal life. Instead, stumble into bed or to the couch for a little while. We also really recommend relaxing the mind as well as the body. Put on some peaceful music, meditate, or simply read a good book. Another simple trick is some basic deep breathing. You’ll feel centred and calm.
Avoid alcohol or caffeine
Both are dehydrating and won’t help your body eliminate the toxins that are on the move thanks to the massage.

BODY POLISH & BACIAL
Leave your skin free
Do not try to do anything more on your skin just after body polishing. Let your skin absorb all the benefits of the treatment to give its complete effect. Chemicals can affect your skin easily after the exfoliation.
Stay out of the sun
Your skin is exfoliated and this will make your skin more prone to get sun burnt. The UV rays are strong enough to ruin your skin. It is very important to avoid being in direct sunlight just after undergoing a body polishing treatment.
Avoid soap
It is not recommended to use hard soaps after doing a body polishing. This will tend to make your skin dry which will take away the moistening effect of the body polishing.
Do not use strong cosmetics
Just leave your skin free to breathe after having a body polishing. Applying strong cosmetics may result in unwanted side-effects due to the chemicals present in them.
FACIAL

Avoid wearing make-up for at least six hours after a facial treatment.
