At Woman, as we transition from season to season, we always think about what our clients will need most. Winter in Nelson while stunningly beautiful, can also be cold and crisp. So, as ever, we’ve put together some special Spa deals to keep you warm and counter the drying effect that cooler temperatures can have on your skin.

Aromastone – Hot Stone Massage Benefits

by

One of our most popular massage treatments at Woman Beauty in Nelson is our Aromastone hot stone massage. It’s a blissful head to toe spa treatment incorporating hot stones and essential oils.

But there’s more to this massage than relaxation. In this week’s post we thought we’d share some of the benefits you can expect from hot stone massage.

Three Benefits of Aromastone Hot Stone Massage

You can wave bye-bye to muscular pain:

Whenever you have a nagging, aching muscular pain, we don’t doubt that you’re tempted to pull out a wheat bag or hot water bottle. That’s because heat can help increase blood flow to a specific area and help muscles to relax. If you are suffering from aches due to overexertion, osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia or any other non-inflammatory muscle pain, then the Aromastone Massage might just be your new best friend!

You can say ‘Sayonara’ to stress:

While any massage should reduce anxiety and help you relax. The comforting warmth of an Aromastone hot stone massage is particularly beneficial if you’re feeling stressed. There is no doubt that your brain will interpret a safe source of heat as reassuring and pleasant. In turn, this psychological reaction will help to switch off your fight or flight response, lowering your stress levels.

You can welcome sleep:

Sleep plays a vital role in your overall good health. Adequate sleep is essential in maintaining your body’s ability to function; just like eating, drinking and breathing. So if you’re finding it difficult to come by, you need to take steps. Again, any massage therapy will help to promote relaxation and sleep, but an Aromastone hot stone massage could be particularly beneficial. There’s a strong psychological link between being warm and being cosy. When we say goodnight to our babies and children, we will often swaddle them and reassure them that they’ll feel as snug as a bug in a rug because there is a link between cosiness and settling for sleep. Combine the warmth of our Aromastone hot stone massage with the calming effect of the essential oils, and we believe you’re pretty much guaranteed a good night’s rest!

Five spa treatments to give you the warm fuzzies…

  • Massage starts with Mmmmm:

    A massage is a perfect way to warm up in winter. For extra toastiness try the Aromastone Massage, this blissful head to toe spa treatment utilises hot stones. Buy yours here.

  • Wrap up warm:

    The Pure Fiji Island Wrap hydrates your dry skin so you will benefit from a beautiful “island glow”. To begin with, your skin is gently dry brushed and warmed tropical oil is generously applied.

Buy yours here.

  • Indulge yourself:

    At the end of a cold winter’s day, it’s tempting to relax in a warm bath. We don’t think you should have to wait until the end of the day! Instead, indulge in a hydrotherapy bath at Woman Beauty Nelson. After this, you’ll receive a full body massage, before finishing with a spa facial and taking time out in the relax lounge. Buy yours here.

  • Escape to the tropics:

    Spa treatments can be like a mini break! Take half a day to pretend you are on holiday. Start with the signature Tropical Paradise Ritual. After this enjoy a crème scrub exfoliation followed by a relaxing massage with exotic oil. You will then be painted with body butter, and cocooned while enjoying a Fijian scalp treatment with warm oil. This pampering wouldn’t be complete without adding a spa manicure and pedicure. After this enjoy time out with a complimentary refreshment in the relax lounge. Buy yours here.

  • Do it with a friend 😉:

    Enjoy our seasonal special this winter! This Couple Retreat is designed to be enjoyed with your partner or bestie. We’ll start you off with a warm foot soak using Pure Fiji bath soak.

Beauty treatments in Nelson – Winter’s most wanted!

by

Winter is here and with that comes the desire to rug up and enter hibernation mode. For some, that means an excuse to ease up on essential body maintenance, although that’s not a course we’d recommend… If you let that fuzz run free as temperatures freeze, you’ll find it harder to take back control in springtime. In honour of cooler temperatures, we thought we’d share some of winter’s most wanted beauty treatments.

  • Saving face – Your skin receives no let-up from the harsh UV rays over winter, especially in beautiful Nelson where we still have bright sunny days during the cooler months.

We’ll take you on a journey with an ancient blend of powerful plant actives and exotic drift nut oils combined with the latest in dermatological revelations, producing phenomenal targeted facial care solutions.

This Christmas – Stress Less & Relax More

by

It’s no secret that Christmas, and the run up to the holiday season can be a stress filled time… Even in sunny Nelson, there seems to be mounting pressure to turn into Wonder Woman and deliver perfect pressies, mouth-watering feasts and entertainment that would fill Netflix with green eyed envy.

Thankfully, here at Woman Beauty Day Spa, we’re masters of the art of relaxation… Our clients often say they feel their troubles melting away as soon as they walk through the door of our beautiful Nelson villa, and we do our best to foster a sense of tranquility and calm. So, with that in mind, we thought we’d share our three top tips to ensure that you stress less and relax more this Christmas season.

Christmas Stress

  • Book a massage – A massage can lower your heart rate, cortisol and insulin levels. Think you have to set aside a full morning or afternoon to fit in some Massage Manna? Think again! Our Neck Back and Shoulder Massage is a great tension reliever when time is limited. Set aside 30 minutes at the end of the day, and we’ll have you laid back and ready to face the demands of the family again!
  • Treat yourself to a facial – A good facial won’t just calm your skin, it will have a similar effect on your demeanour. The Essential Spa Facial includes a neck, back and shoulder massage, so you can supersize your stress buster!
  • Summer Special to beat stress – We’ve just released our summer specials, and to help you combat seasonal stress disorder, we’ve included the Full Body Retreat. A firm favourite every year. Enjoy a foot soak in Pure Fiji’s milk soak, followed by a sugar scrub and full body massage. Afterwards, take time in the relax lounge and enjoy a complimentary refreshment and chocolates… We won’t tell them you’re here!

We don’t close our doors until Saturday 23rd December at 4:00 p.m. and we reopen at 9:00 a.m. on Wednesday 3rd January. So book now for your pre or post Christmas stress relieving treat!

 

Anti-Ageing Options @ Woman Beauty Nelson

by

anti-ageing nelsonAt Woman Beauty we believe that there are many benefits that come with getting older; more wisdom, increased empathy and a satisfying knowledge that one no longer needs to wear uncomfortable shoes or knickers; are just a few things that make ageing quite bearable! And to be honest, it’s easy to feel the same age on the inside as one always has done, it’s only a glance in the mirror that can sometimes remind us that gravity has indeed begun to take its toll and that it’s time to invest in some anti-ageing solutions, and that’s where we come in, because at Woman Beauty Nelson we can help you filter back the years.

Treatments:

A facial is a guaranteed way to increase your feel-good factor. Our Anti-Ageing Trio facial offers a deep even exfoliation with Glycolic, to smooth and refine. Drift away under the red Omnilux LED light, this promotes hydration and stimulates collagen. Then our much loved 02 facial helps to plump fine lines and increase luminosity. Buy yours HERE.

Massages are well known for their therapeutic properties, but a massage can also invigorate and energise giving an often needed youthful boost! View Massage Treatments.

Products:

We offer a select range of effective, quality skin care and anti-ageing cosmeceuticals.  Cosmeceuticals contain active ingredients (10%- 25%) that help to make actual changes in the second layer of the skin, (rather than sitting on the surface), ensuring the skin functions and performs as it should. The ingredients in cosmeceuticals also help to look after and protect the important lipid barrier of the skin, allowing for better penetration of the active ingredients.
Take advantage of our free skin care analysis and purchase products that best suit your skin type.

Massage-Woman Beauty Nelson-5 Health Benefits

by

This week’s blog is a guest post from Sarah Jones. After trying out numerous massage and relaxation techniques, Sarah finally found the ideal place to share her experience and knowledge. On Relax Everyday, she writes about relaxation, meditation, and other calming techniques for a healthier disposition. Today she’s writing for Woman Beauty in Nelson about the health benefits of massage.

massage health benefits nelson

 

The team at Woman Beauty take your relaxation very seriously! But if you think that massage is just about relaxation then think again, because massage therapy has many health benefits, read on to discover how it can help your overall well-being.

Massages Help Fight Illness

Massages have been shown to help boost immune power.  People leave a massage feeling relaxed and invigorated, and the feeling helps to boost immune system properties reducing inflammation and building up a resistance to sickness.  A lighter-pressure massage is most effective for increasing immune system powers, as studies have shown that it increases the number of lymphocytes, white blood cells, found in the immune system.

Soothes the Back

Millions suffer from neck and back pain caused by stationary sitting all day or by injuries.  Massages can often be used in lieu of pain pills.  Applying pressure to your sore back and neck can ease painful symptoms quickly.  Regular massages are encouraged over several weeks for those suffering from chronic neck or back pain.  Try the Woman Beauty Neck, Back and Shoulder Massage to ease your pained muscles.

Sleep Better

Massages help you get restful sleep.  Many people toss and turn or have problems falling and staying asleep.  Massages relax the body and are generally carried out in a calming, soothing atmosphere which also calms the mind.  This is a dynamic combination that will help those who struggle with sleeping soundly to rest easy.  Good rest is needed for our minds and bodies to rejuvenate, and getting a massage once or twice a week will improve sleep quality.

Eases Soreness

The most popular use for a massage is to ease soreness and tension.  Both can be caused by stress, injury, or damage to muscles and tissue.  Exercise often leaves us sore, and massage is a great way to increase blood flow by using pressure on tight or sore areas.  They can be used after workouts for a quicker recovery time, reducing the aches and pains that you might feel after strenuous activity.

Smiles All Around

Massages make you happy!  Some people experience mild discomfort as the masseuse works on their body, applying pressure to the troubled areas.  After the massage is completed, most people feel much better.  Fluid movements return, the pain eases, soreness dissipates, and you feel calmer, healthier, and happier, boosting your overall mood and helping you to feel better both inside and out. Massages have a tendency to leave people happier and relieved, thereby reducing symptoms of depression.

What are you waiting for?  Scheduling a regular massage can help ease not only tension but stress, soreness, and negativity from your mind and body. They benefit your body in numerous ways and are considered a great element to incorporate into your health and fitness routine.
