Dry Brushing

Dry brushing not only promotes healthier skin by removing dead skin cells on the surface of the skin, but also by stimulating and increasing skin cell production, giving your skin a healthy glow all year long.  

The benefits are not just skin deep! Dry brushing both increases blood flow and circulation and enhances detoxification through the skin.  It is also said that the gentle pressure and brushing sensations have a calming effect... just like a massage! 

Why should you dry brush?

• it will help reduce dead skin cells so that you pores will be open and able to take in as much nutrients as possible.
• stimulates the lymphatic and circulator system which will boost your immune system and help detoxify.
• Stress relief: increasing your blood flow reduces stressed areas of the body and stimulates nerve endings in your skin which in turn rejuvenates your nervous system.
• Reduced cellulite: increasing blood circulation to the skin helps break down and releases toxins that cause cellulite in legs and hips.

How to dry brush:

• Start with your feet, moving in circular movements (always moving towards the heart)
• Work up each leg, first the back of the leg up through the buttock and then the front of the leg.  Avoid any delicate skin, like the skin on the insides of the thighs.
• After you are finished with the lower half, start at the fingertips of one arm; move up the arm. Repeat on other arm.
• Move to the back working your movements towards your stomach, starting and finishing with one side of the back and then the other.
• When you get to your stomach, start at your lower abdomen and work your way up (make sure to steer clear of delicate areas like the nipples) and end at your chest in an upward stroke.
• Rinse and shower as normal.

DO AT LEAST TWO TIMES A WEEK
