IPL HAIR REMOVAL
IPL is a non-invasive procedure to treat various skin conditions & permanently reduce hair.
IPL uses light at different wavelengths, which then converts into heat to selectively absorb into the melanin (pigment) of hair & skin & also haemoglobin (vascular/ redness) of the area to be treated. This enables the surrounding skin to be unharmed & unaffected.
With permanent hair reduction the ideal candidate is someone with dark hair & fair skin in the treatment area. Those with lighter hair or darker skin can have less of a reduction. Blonde, grey, red or light coloured hair is not ideal to be treated and will have little to no reduction.
What can IPL treat?
Sun damaged skin
Skin Discolouration (freckles & age spots & general pigmentation)
Poikiloderma (a mottled mix of red & brown discolouration on neck & décolletage)
Broken capillaries on face & décolletage
Can help with Rosacea & to diffuse redness of the skin
Can help reduce redness in post acne lesions
Can help reduce fine lines
Can help reduce pore size
Can help to stimulate collagen
All of the above for anti ageing
Permanently reduce unwanted facial & body hair
Detoxification Programmes
Cleansing would be our preferred title for this program, as its aims to help the body in the breakdown and removal of waste products.
Multiple conditions will require a cleansing program, such as weight loss, smoking, dental treatment, post illness, and occupational exposure to pollution and stress. However, most people in this modern age of high exposure to environmental and dietary pollution, lack of exercise, and high stress level, will benefit dramatically from cleansing program.
Our approach is to educate our clients to maintain a healthy detoxification routine which they will learn through the program, and than incorporate it into their lifestyle. After an initial consultation we will prescribe a fully individualised program to meet your needs.

Osteopathy
Everyone needs to see an osteopath regardless of whether they are in pain or not. Firstly, it feels good to have an osteopathic treatment, but moreover, we are like ‘engineers for the human body.’ With five years of university training we are trained to read your body and figure out your individual pattern of strain. In order to prevent the possibility of injury, we determine where excess strain is being absorbed and correct biomechanics so that strain and pressure is evenly dispersed throughout the tissues.
The moving parts of the skeletal system are prone to ‘rusting.’ This causes joints to stiffen and muscles to become tight. Quite often people are unaware that this is even happening and it is not until they do something quite simple that they get pain. The moving parts of your body need regular ‘tune-ups’ and maintenance just like the mechanics of your car!
What can Osteopaths treat?
• Neck and back pain, spinal pain and ‘sciatica’
• Headaches and migraine
• Pain with pregnancy
• Joint pains such as shoulders, knees and ankles
• Muscle strains and tendonitis
• Sports-related injuries.
• Arthritic conditions
