Naturally, we are cautious when it comes to more radical facial treatments such as chemical peels or micro needling.

We might be willing to go to great lengths in order to achieve the desired results, but it is natural to want to research options, results & recommendations. After all, knowledge is power.

If you’ve already tried various options with little or no results, it may be time to consider a chemical peel & microdermabrasion. The process can vary from light peels to deep peels, depending on the results you are aiming for.
At SenSi Spa we call it your skin journey. It is not a quick fix or a once off session. We take various aspects into consideration, before recommending the first or next step. Compared to normal facials, the results are simply amazing.

Generally, there are two options when it comes to peels: AHA’s (alpha hydroxy acids) & BHA’s (Beta hydroxy acids). Each one contains different chemicals, ranging from light peels, to medium peels & deep peels.
The difference involves the number of layers of your skin the chemical peel will penetrate as well as the severity of the peeling you might see.

We’ve established the origins of massage & that it goes hand in hand with health. Let’s continue on this journey & explore the wonders & importance of facials.

Facials can be traced back to around the 1500’s to 1600’s. Those days the paleness of a lady’s skin was seen as a symbol of wealth & power. Women made use of all kinds of active & natural ingredients to maintain & improve the quality of their skin. Some drastic measures were taken back then, which included the use of harmful & poisonous ingredients. Queen Elizabeth started the trendy process of whitening the skin by using Ceruse, a poisonous mixture of white lead & vinegar. Throughout the centuries there were some drastic, dangerous facial procedures used. The discovery of radium lead to a number of cosmetic companies including it in their products ingredients. People also used freckle- proof capes and carbon monoxide treatments to freeze off freckles. Thanks to research & knowledge, facials have evolved, been refined, retuned & turned & almost perfected to an art.

SenSi Spa offers facials that will cater for all types of skins. From hydration, anti-ageing, treating blemishes, sensitive or problematic skin. The list is extensive & these days facials are safe & poison free. While there is a relaxing element to the more luxurious facials, it can also sometimes involve an element of discomfort. The essence of a facial is to deep clean impurities & resurface a fresh, plump, glowing skin.

Slimming is a bit of an uncertain topic, which I think we all have had more failures than success with. We follow strict regimes and impossible diets and that only discourages us.

At Sensi Spa we can help you to change that, with the detox and slimming treatments we offer. Health and being healthy is a lifestyle choice. Stop seeing it as a chore and start associating it with positive thoughts & results.

Liposculpt allows us to offer you one of many solutions in targeting those stubborn areas. Liposculpt’s detox and slimming treatment is most efficient when done in ten sessions, one session per week. Your journey starts by understanding your lifestyle, your choices and implementing a system that works with you. The treatments include - amongst others - your measurements being taken, massaging, body wrapping (which results in your body getting rid of toxins), etc., all in order to assist in sculpting and molding those stubborn areas. Self-discipline & will power is also necessary in conjunction with external detox. Following a healthy diet & making healthy lifestyle choices will accelerate your results.

I have learned a few tips that seem to be relatively easy to slot into your daily diets:

• Smoothies are awesome but apparently blending bananas, turns them into a weight increase monster. Simply eating it on its own, is the healthiest choice.
• High caffeine intake can cause cellulite. Using coffee in scrubs or creams, can actually help break cellulite down.
• Some interesting food combo tips which can assist in losing weight: apple with peanut butter; cinnamon in coffee; yoghurt with dark chocolate; eggs and bell pepper & green tea with mint and lemon.

A healthy lifestyle combined with 10 detox & slimming treatments at Sensi Spa will change your body & mind in a positive way.
