Are you taking care of your skin? All of your skin, head to toes. A few tips to take care of your skin:
1. Stay hydrated and eat a healthy balanced diet.
2. Use sun screen.
3. Feet and body, especially feet, moisturise before bed.
4. Wear socks more often to keep feet free of dirt and prevent rubbing.
5. Find a moisturiser face and body that works best for your skin type. Or be adventurous and experiment make your own body butter, there are some easy to follow and inexpensive recipes out there.
6. Wear rubber gloves when washing dishes by hand or cleaning bathrooms, windows etc.
What can cause dry skin? Here's a few;
1. Poor diet and not enough water.

3. Skin care products which may be too harsh for your skin.
4. Washing, showering and bathing in water which is too hot.
5. Hormones and menopause.
6. Too much skin exposure to the sun or sunbeds.

The massage oils I use are all blended by me. If you want an aromatherapy prescriptive blend for your treatment, this is blended in your presence after consultation. All other massage treatments I use my own pre blended massage oils.
Those of you who have sensitive skins or skin problems, the massage oil will be carefully chosen such as a plain carrier oil ( no essential oils) or if appropriate a little essential oil may be added.
Take care of your skin and don't forget your feet π£
