NYR Organic Facial
Heavenly Facial using award-winning organic skincare products
Holistic facials are a gentle and relaxing facial treatment which cleanses, exfoliate, tone and nourishes the skin. The therapy can also help to relax muscles of the face, head, hands/feet, neck and shoulders, common areas for holding stress and tension. Here at Waterlily Therapies, I use Neals' Yard Organic products that nourish the skin and delight the senses.
How do Holistic Facials work?
A cleanser and face mask can help to remove impurities from the skin, while a gentle exfoliator and face massage promotes the removal of dead skin cells. Massage of the face, head, neck, shoulders, arms and hands can help to release stress and tension of muscles in these areas. Massage also promotes fresh blood supply bringing with it oxygen and nutrients. This encourages the body to rid itself of waste products associated with muscle discomfort and can help to improve skin condition.

The Treatment
During an initial consultation, the therapist will take some personal details such as diet, lifestyle, current skincare routine, any issues and general health. You will then be asked to lie on a comfortable massage couch. You will remain fully clothed other than removing your upper clothing (not underwear) and covered with a blanket. This will enable the therapist to massage your décolletage, neck and shoulders.
The therapist will remove any makeup, and massage an organic cleansing and exfoliating lotion into your face and neck which will then be removed using a hot muslin cloth to steam open the pores.
A facial oil will be selected to suit your skin needs providing a face and head massage. The treatment also includes a massage of the shoulders, neck and décolletage. Pressure points on the face and head are gently stimulated to relieve tension.
Following this, an organic face mask to suit your skin type and preferences is freshly prepared and applied to your skin, while you receive a soothing hand and arm massage. The mask will then be carefully removed and the skin cleansed, toned and moisturised using beautiful organic products.
If clients would prefer not to have oil applied to the hair, this can remain covered by a towel or head massage omitted.

Inspired by nature to nurture ourselves
Our body is a temple of our soul, so let’s thank it and fill it with love and acceptance. Take time to unwind with this soothing, mindful facial and give your skin some much-needed TLC with the calming and therapeutic aroma of frankincense.
Your journey will begin with a welcoming ritual where you will take some deep breaths and start to relax. Then your skin is thoroughly cleansed and exfoliated to leave it feeling soft, fresh and smooth.
Following this, you will receive a face and decolletage massage with perfectly blended essential oils. Then comes the mask, and when applied, the headphones go on. Here, you will be encouraged to enter a relaxed state during an empowering Mindfulness Meditation, ‘My Dear Body,’ to stimulate feelings of love and acceptance.
We finish with a hydrating essence, serum and moisturiser.
