Hydrotherapy Bed at Woman Beauty Nelson

November 16, 2016 by w b

Did you know that Woman Beauty Day Spa is the only place in Nelson to offer you treatments using a hydrotherapy bed? And my what benefits it brings, that’s why the treatments are so popular!

img_0701

Even though our hydrotherapy bed is state of the art, the practice of hydrotherapy is nothing new, it’s been used for hundreds of years for pain relief and physical well-being.

The thermal effects of hydrotherapy are what makes it effective. It utilises the body’s response to hot and cold stimuli, as well as the pressure and sensation of the water. When your skin reacts to these catalysts, nerves will carry what is felt on the skin surface, deeper into the body.

Benefits of hydrotherapy

  • It will dramatically increase the removal of waste, thereby aiding in detoxification
  • It softens tense muscles and encourages relaxation
  • It increases your metabolic rate and aids in digestion activity
  • It improves cell hydration for better muscle tone and skin texture
  • It boosts your immune system

Any of the following conditions can be helped using hydrotherapy

  • Acne and problem skin
  • Arthritis and joint pain
  • Aching and sore muscles
  • Cold symptoms
  • Depression
  • Digestive and stomach issues
  • Sleeping problems
  • Stress and anxiety

Why not experience the benefits for yourself? Several of our Nelson Day Spa treatments include time on the hydrotherapy bed, including…

  • Woman Signature Treatment – A treatment unique to Woman Day Spa that encompasses the best of everything – we describe it as a ‘full body facial’. You will experience a full body sugar scrub and the detoxifying effects of marine clay cleansers on our hydrotherapy table. Whilst encapsulated in the warm steam you will receive a luxurious facial before the Vichy shower jets rinse and invigorate you to leave your whole body glowing with health and vitality. This would not be complete without finishing off with a full body massage.
  • Tropical Paradise Ritual  – Enjoy a full-body sugar scrub in the hydrotherapy bed, followed by a relaxing massage with exotic oil, your body is then enveloped with body butter, and covered to promote hydration. Finish off with Fijian scalp treatment.

PLUS, stay tuned for our upcoming Grab-A-Treat, sign up to our newsletter so you don’t miss out! (There’s a link at the bottom of the page to subscribe).

Spray Tan for Spring in Nelson!

September 2, 2016 by w b

Hurrah! It’s official spring has arrived in Nelson, that can mean only one thing, it’s time to think about a spray tan.

spray tan nelson

Many of you might have had a spray tan prior to your holidays; after all, nobody wants to be that person by the pool whose limbs scream… We just arrived! But this is far from the only occasion you should consider a delightfully natural faux glow, in fact we’d recommend a more frequent regime to any client… Here’s why:

  • It will make you feel great. There’s nothing like adding a little colour to your life and limbs to make you feel super sexy, you’ll quite literally glow with confidence.
  • It can hide blemishes. It’s time to start shedding your layers. If light scars or mottled skin prevent you from doing this, a spray tan could be the answer.
  • Safety first. Don’t fry! Let us apply!

If you’re a spray tan newbie here are a few tips that will help you get the best from your treatment.

  1. Avoid using lotions prior to your spray tan to ensure the product absorbs more readily into your skin.
  2. Fight the fuzz before your treatment, shaving or waxing afterwards can remove the tan.
  3. Be sure to exfoliate and moisturise the week before your tan, (not the day of). This will help to keep your tan looking good for longer!
  4. Try to book your appointment for later in the day, and don’t plan too much for that evening.
  5. When you come for your appointment where dark, loose fitting clothes. Skinny jeans are a definite no no! And don’t wear your best knickers! We’ll give you some disposable undies for during your treatment.
  6. Follow your therapists advice on when you can shower after your treatment.
  7. Amp up the moisturiser after your spray tan. Ask your therapist about the best products to use to extend your golden glow.

At Woman Beauty in Nelson we offer two treatment options:

Spray Tan $60 – timer 30 mins
A beautiful natural looking tan without harmful chemicals.
Body Scrub & Spray Tan $85 – timer 45 mins
Full body exfoliation washed away with vichy jets then a spray tan – leaves you with a very sunny complexion and a mood to match.

Call us now to book yours – 03 548 0030.

Men’s Facials in Nelson – Reasons to gift your guy a facial!

August 2, 2016 by w b

We might be called Woman Beauty but men are very welcome at our Day Spa in Nelson, we have treatments specially tailored for gents, with three different men’s facials for starters.

Facials are definitely not just for women, and we’ve seen an increase in bookings for men’s facials, and with good reason!

If you (or your man) think a facial is just for relaxation think again… Just like servicing a vehicle they’re an essential part of a maintenance routine; only this time we’re saving your skin, because the largest organ in your body deserves a regular engine tune!

Men's Facials in Nelson

Here are 3 great reasons to gift your guy a facial, or gentlemen, if you’re reading this, buy one for yourself.

  • It’s time for an oil change – Men produce more oil than women, it’s all down to higher levels of testosterone. If your skin isn’t cleaned properly or effectively on a regular basis, that oil will clog your pores and can lead to blackheads and break outs.
  • It will streamline your shave – Frequent shaving, especially over pimply skin can cause inflammation and irritation. A facial at Woman Beauty Day Spa in Nelson will deep clean and soothe your skin. This means that future shaving will be less painful and you’ll definitely get a smoother finish.
  • It’s like a workout for your face – A great facial helps to tone your facial muscles. They might not compete with your biceps but killer cheekbones will help you rival Johnny Depp in the gorgeous stakes, your furrowed brow will be smoothed out quicker than Leonardo Di Caprio’s red carpet tuxedo!

These three facials are specifically designed for men’s skin and needs.

Men’s Ultra Power Facial $69 – timer 30 mins
To cleanse, hydrate & brighten the skin.

Men’s Ultra Signature Facial
$95 – timer 60 mins
Includes eyebrow tidy, cleanse, exfoliation, steam, massage & mask with finishing products.

Microdermabrasion
$120 – timer 50 mins
A highly exfoliating facial treatment leaving the skin looking and feeling smoother and fresher.

Phone us  on 03 548 0030 to book.

Top Tip: We suggest you shave prior to your treatment.

Dry Brushing – Add it to your morning routine…

July 26, 2016 by w b

We know… Your mornings are busy enough as you race to get ready for work or the kids off to school, you already have to shower, do your hair, make breakfast, pack lunches, get dressed, walk the dog… The list goes on! But there’s a reason that you should be dry brushing your skin as part of your morning routine… Because it’s the largest organ in your body, and it plays a big part in detoxification, so it deserves some love and attention.

dry brushing

Benefits of dry brushing:

  • Stimulates your lymphatic system, helping to release toxins.
  • Exfoliates your skin, which means you’ll shed dead skin cells, this in turn encourages new cell renewal.
  • Allows your skin to absorb nutrients as you unclog pores.
  • Glowing, tighter skin.
  • Increased energy and blood flow… What a great way to start your day.

What you need:

A good quality, firm, long handled, natural brush. Call in to Woman, we carry some stock, and can also recommend our favourites.

Top dry brushing tips:

  • Do it in the morning, rather than in the evening because it can give you an energy rush.
  • Brush towards your heart/chest area.
  • Start with your feet and work up your legs one at a time. Then move up your mid-section and across your chest. Finish by brushing your arms in an upwards direction.
  • There’s no need to brush to vigorously, this gentle practice should never leave your skin red or inflamed.
  • Make the most of opening your pores, by showering afterwards and using moisturising products. Pop in to view the Pure Fiji range and we’ll recommend our favourites.

Try it at Woman Beauty Day Spa:

We fully endorse the benefits of dry brushing, and include it as part of our Island Wrap ritual.

Island Wrap $170 – timer 80 mins – This treatment hydrates dry skin leaving the body with a beautiful “island glow”. The skin is gently dry brushed and warmed tropical oil is generously applied. The body is wrapped with hot stones while a warm oil scalp massage releaves tension hydrating the skin and detoxifying the system. You will leave with your mind renewed and your body restored.

Treat yourself or someone you love now.

Waxing lyrical… In a Nelson winter.

July 8, 2016 by w b

Waxing… Are you one of the “let the grass grow in a Nelson winter” brigade?

Far be it from us to comment on what goes on beneath your winter woolies… You may be aesthetically very happy with a little extra fuzz forming from June to September. But… And here’s the important thing… Right now, while we’re in the midst of a Nelson winter, is actually the best time to establish your hair removal routine.

Here are three reasons why.

  1. Your body hair naturally grows in three phases, in order to get the best removal results, you need to catch the hair in the anagen (initial) growth phase, each and every time. So routine is important.
  2. During winter, your skin isn’t exposed to harsh outside factors like sun and chlorine. That means that any redness and/or sensitivity will be minimised, and your skin will recover quicker from a hair removal treatment.
  3. With consistent waxing, your body will produce less and less hair. So if you take the Nelson winter off, it’s likely to be a bigger job to fight the fuzz when you get ready for your spring reveal!

Waxing-Nelson

Here are a few tips to maximise the effectiveness of your waxing treatment.

  • Make sure your skin is clean and free from moisturisers and lotions prior to your waxing appointment.
  • If you are particularly sensitive or having your first wax; you could take Panadol or Nurofen up to an hour before your appointment to minimise any discomfort.
  • For the best results your hair growth should be between 1-1.5 cm. If it’s longer than this, specifically in intimate areas, waxing can be more painful. So we recommend trimming the area before your appointment, or your therapist can attend to this.
  • Your skin will need to calm after your waxing appointment. We stock the Pure Fiji Dilo Rescue range that can help to soothe, nourish and replenish skin; ask us about it at your appointment.
  • Avoid all other lotions, perfumes, antiperspirants and colognes until your skin has calmed.
  • Wear loose clothes for your appointment, and after waxing until your skin has calmed. Tights, pants and jeans can irritate the skin or cause ingrown hairs.
  • If you’re showering or bathing after your appointment, make sure you use warm not hot water.
  • Don’t hit the gym straight after your waxing appointment.

Massage – So many benefits!

June 3, 2016 by w b

Here in Nelson at Woman Day Spa for Women and Men, we take your relaxation very seriously! But if you think that massage is just about relaxation then think again, because massage therapy is an important part of maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

Massage Nelson

 

Here are five benefits of massage therapy that go beyond simple relaxation:

  1. It can help relieve stress. It can lower your heart rate, cortisol and insulin levels. In the fast-paced world we live in it’s easy to let stress get the better of you, but keep in mind that reducing your stress levels is key to achieving a healthier lifestyle.
  2. It can improve your circulation. As we head into the cooler months give your body a warming boost; let us help to stimulate blood flow and enhance your circulation.
  3. It can help soothe anxiety, by boosting the feel-good neurotransmitters (chemical messengers) serotonin and dopamine.
  4. It can help manage pain and injury. Our therapists hands can work wonders in helping you move more freely and manage pain, (but please don’t forget to tell our therapists prior to your treatment if you suffer from soreness, illness or injury).
  5. It can improve your sleep. If you’ve ever had a wee cat nap on the massage table then you’ll need no convincing of this. Getting the right amount of shut-eye is vital for your continued health and well-being. So if you’re having trouble dropping off at night why not give this all natural cure for insomnia.

Take a look at our menu of heavenly massage treatments here, and don’t forget to sign up to our Woman Beauty Day Spa – Nelson mailing list so you don’t miss out on our monthly Grab-A-Treats, as we often include a relaxing and beneficial massage as part of our treat packages.

It’s time to fake it with a Spray Tan!

October 6, 2015 by w b

Spring is here, summer is just around the corner… Before you start to shed your winter clothing layers, you might wish to think about faking it… Book a Sun Escape Spray Tan.

Here are our top tips to getting the most from your spray tan!

  • Prior to a spray tan, start exfoliating you body (at least a week out). Any dry skin patches (often around the knees or elbows) will make the tan appear darker in those areas, so for an even tan, moisturise after you exfoliate.
  • On the day of your spray tan don’t apply any deodorant, perfume or moisturiser and be sure to wear loose (preferably dark coloured) clothing, stay away from boots or tight jeans.
  • Jandals are perfect to slip on after your tan.
  • If you would like your face tanned, it is best done with no makeup.
  • Afterwards, stay away from water and be careful about washing your hands. Moisturise daily to prolong the tan.

Screen Shot 2015-10-06 at 3.39.06 pmOur expert therapists will give you further tips to make the most of your Sun Escape tan.

Our popular spray tan, Sun Escape, also offers a take home mousse. Easy application for an instant tan. Available for purchase in spa. ($53.50)

5 Ways to Relax – Wherever You Are…

August 21, 2015 by w b

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.

We don’t think there’s enough relaxation in the world, so we thought we’d share 5 ways that you can relax wherever you are…

Relax

  1. Smell the roses – A ten minute wander in the fresh air is often all that’s required to reset the mind; enjoy nature wherever you are… Stroll in the country or through a local park; or if you’re at home, take a few slow laps of your backyard. Take in the air, appreciate nature, smell the roses.
  2. Discover your happy place – Think a happy thought and allow yourself to drift away on a day dream. You can imagine you’re anywhere in the world, believe us when we say that once you pull yourself back into reality you’ll feel supremely relaxed.
  3. Cherish yourself – Take a hot bath, use your favourite oil, wash and brush your hair. Tending yourself is both restful and restorative.
  4. Get into the groove – Hit the play button on your iPod or iPhone; find the track that transports you back in time, brings back happy memories and listen or dance to it; all of it!
  5. Be you and be alone – Take 5 minutes to be you, not somebody’s mother, wife or employee. Move to a room where you can be completely alone to be you. Spending this short time alone will help you clear your mind and relax.

These 5 minute relaxation wonders can often give you the few moments of inner peace you may be craving, here at Woman we can offer you more than 5 minutes… In fact we can offer you a relaxing holiday with no international travel, no time change and no packing!

Why not escape to Fiji?

Take half a day to pretend you are on holiday. Start with a signature Tropical Paradise Ritual, enjoy creme scrub exfoliation followed by a relaxing massage with exotic oil. Then be painted with body butter, wrapped up whilst enjoying a Fijian scalp treatment with warm oil.

This pampering wouldn’t be complete without adding a tropical spa manicure and pedicure then enjoy time out with a complimentary refreshment in the relax lounge.
