Aftercare Advice
In order to get the most out of your treatment please:
Avoid washing or using any products on the skin for 8 hours – this will allow the oils to fully penetrate the skin and have their maximum effect on the body.
Avoid direct exposure to sunlight – some oils can cause pigmentation of the skin if exposed to direct sunlight.
Avoid smoking and alcohol – these can disrupt/negate the detoxification process.
Drink plenty of water – water assists the elimination of toxins from the body which is stimulated by the treatment.
Eat a light diet – the body needs to concentrate its efforts on the detoxification/healing process. Heavy meals can put stress on the body.
Rest and relax – assists the healing process by reducing stress on the body’s systems.
Follow carefully any advice given by your therapist for your own home treatment.
Sometimes clients may experience an increase in symptoms, may develop a headache or nausea or feel that catarrh has developed. All of these symptoms should be slight and will pass. However, it is advisable to see your GP if you feel your condition is deteriorating or if you develop anywhere a numbness or ‘pins and needles’.
