I had a fabulous facial at Neals Yard. The therapist was Rima Shah who has been working in the complementary health field for ten years. It was very relaxing and the products used were heavenly….. My skin glowed, and I came away feeling very refreshed. In the past, I have had some bad facial experiences, reacting to fruit acids etc., but there was no ‘sting in the tail’ from this treatment. – Review on Imperfectly Natural Janey Lee Grace.

 

“I just had my amazing facial…………..Thank you so much for my facial, I absolutely loved it……the little eyebrow thing you did there was lovely….” – Fearne Cotton live on BBC Radio 1

The Calm and Clear® Signature Facial has been designed by Rima Shah as a 90 minutes session to cleanse, relax and tone the face and be fully relaxing.

Rima Shah designed and was the lead tutor of the Neal’s Yard Remedies Holistic Facials course for the initial 10 years, training other practitioners about how to do the Neal’s Yard Remedies Holistic Facial.

 

What happens during a Calm and Clear® Signature Facial treatment?

The session starts with consultation, where details about your skin type, skin routine and general lifestyle considerations are taken and also ruling out any contra-indications.

You will be asked to get ready and lie on the massage couch, covered with towels and blankets and hair will be kept off the face with a hair band.

The treatment begins with a deep cleanse of the skin and décolleté area.

This will be followed by the amazing facial rejuvenation massage, after which the intra-oral buccal massage will be done.  For this, the inside of the mouth/cheeks will be massaged along with the external areas.  The therapist will wear surgical gloves to work on the inside of the mouth.

After this your skin will be cleansed again and the Vodder MLD/DLT massage is done.  Followed by moisturiser.

The specific products used will vary according to your individual requirements, therefore giving you a bespoke treatment.

The whole treatment does not just stop at the face but includes face, head, shoulders, neck and décolleté area.

The session ends with comprehensive aftercare advice on lifestyle, general health improvements and skin care advice.

The whole session lasts for 1.5  hours, and is an ideal solution for relaxing, toning and reviving the skin and facial muscles.

Ultimately, with the Calm and Clear® Signature Facial treatment you should experience a relaxing and pleasurable treatment, which leaves you relaxed and revived.

Benefits from the Calm and Clear® Signature Facial

Following the treatment clients have reported feeling:

  • Deep level of relaxation and peace.
  • Skin was said to feel fresher and smoother.
  • Face felt more mobile and relaxed.

 

Regular treatments will provide long term benefits and a greater sense of well-being.

The intra-oral buccal massage has a range of benefits, both aesthetically and holistically.

By target and toning the muscles around the mouth it can help with muscle tone.  This leads to a gentle ‘lift’ to the cheek and jawline.  More regular sessions provide a more defined change.

Combined with the other facial treatments, such as my Vodder decongestive lymphatic drainage, it can provide additional benefits to the complexion and reducing puffiness.

The jaw tension can also create TMJ syndrome and by working on reducing the muscle tension it could provide TMJ relief (I also have training in specific TMJ massage).  Sinus pressure relief is also another added benefit many have felt.
