IMMUNE BOOST FROM A MASSAGE?

HERE’S THE SCOOP

What does a lymphatic facial do?

As a loyal Beautique client, you already know how effective facials are at subtracting years from your appearance and giving you a bright rejuvenated glow as they slough off dead skin.

A lymphatic facial targets the lymph nodes — most of which are located in the ear and neck area — to help eliminate blockages and drain fluids. Precise circular motions and pressure are applied by our estheticians to help lymph fluids flow throughout your entire body. With the increased flow and disposal of toxins, you can feel and see the benefits in the improved texture and appearance of your skin. There are even a few additional benefits. Yes! Not only does a lymphatic facial result in an immunity boost and better skin, it also can help tone your facial muscles and support your body’s ability to handle stress. Even better? A lymphatic facial can actually release endorphins, so you’ll not only look good, but you’ll feel happier, too! Don’t wait to get these beautifying — and gratifying — benefits. Call our office today at 956-664-1234 and book your immunity- and beauty- boosting facial massage! Wait, there’s more?

What if you could get even more from a facial? What if a facial existed that not only got rid of dull skin, but also rid your body of toxins?

Yes, this facial does exist, and it’s offered at Beautique Medical Spa! Called a lymphatic facial massage, this facial focuses on stimulating your body’s natural lymphatic system to help you look and feel better.

What’s so important about your lymphatic system?

Our lymph nodes filter out toxins, bacteria, and viruses, and they allow white blood cells to destroy toxins. That way, these toxins can be carried out through your bloodstream with other waste. Unfortunately, for various reasons, our lymphatic system can become blocked. When it’s not working properly, these toxins and unwanted bacteria can build up, causing illness and negative side effects to our appearance — like fine lines and dull skin. Breathing exercises and massage can help stimulate your system and aid your lymph nodes.
