GROWING + GLOWING
HOLISTIC PREGNANCY EXPERIENCES
Our pregnancy facial primarily focuses on the profound changes in the skin due to weakened immunity. During pregnancy, the body produces 3x the amount of blood, drastically lowering the body's natural defense and causing slower movement of this toxic fluid, which can also lead to edema. The stagnation of this fluid and the immune system is the leading cause of hormonal pregnancy breakouts. Hence, the focus of our pregnancy facial is the lymph system. Dr. Vodder's Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is a profound method that works in conjunction with the nervous system. It puts the cells directly into a parasympathetic state of rest to repair, heal, clean, nourish and feed your cells with freshly oxygenated nourished blood, vital towards your pregnancy glow!
Your experience will begin with a relaxing and grounding aromatherapy anointing oil, which is taken in with a few deep breaths, allowing the body to melt into the warm table bed completely. Your feet and upper body will be elevated above the heart range, never laying flat to ensure proper blood flow. We will then start your facial using an ancient beauty secret, oil cleansing with hot stones, to remove all skin impurities without compromising the skin's protective barrier. We will choose an appropriate exfoliation to clear all dead skin cells while herbal infusions of petals or honey deeply hydrate your skin's internal structure. Steam is used for enzyme activation while you receive a hand and arm massage. A beautiful botanical mask will be applied while giving your internal organs a warm hug with foot reflexology, carefully and consciously avoiding the reproductive system points. You can also choose an invigorating scalp and neck massage using a gua sha comb, which stimulates the lymph system in the brain while the mask is on. It's a hard choice, we know! Last but not least, you will receive a full neck and face lymphatic drainage followed by all finishing products, including hydration hydrosol, serum, and finishing balm. A lip treatment, of course, is included as well as ice globes and a gemstone facial roller, further assisting in lymph drainage.
You will be glowing and creating radiant life after our facial pregnancy experience!
*You may book your pregnancy facial after 12-weeks/1st trimester. *During foot reflexology, the reproductive acupressure points will be avoided until after 38 weeks in pregnancy. *All products are pregnany safe and contain zero chemicals, only the dense nourishment of plants and flowers.As your baby and belly grow, the skin is designed to stretch; however, this can lead to dry, itchy skin and sometimes stretch marks. It is normal and expected, and we have created a unique therapy for your growing pregnant belly to ease skin distress. We will start your belly facial with gentle dry brushing, which is yours to take home. This ancient dry-brushing method is used to jump-start the lymph system, which has dramatically slowed while giving light skin exfoliation. We will then cleanse the skin using organic jojoba oil, which the skin loves! Next, a gentle almond grain scrub will be applied to exfoliate away further dead skin for product penetration of the deeply hydrating rose botanical mask, which provides immense hydration to support the skin while growing your baby. While the mask is on, you may choose foot reflexology or a relaxing neck and scalp massage incorporating a gua sha comb for lymph stimulation of the brain. Hello, pregnancy brain fog! Exfoliation and masks are removed gently with hot towels. Next, a dense recovery balm will be applied, giving you skin relief, healing, and recovery.

During pregnancy, the blood triples in volume. The lymphatic system therefore has to pump and filter that much more blood which can lead to pregnancy edema. After giving birth, it is critical to address this additional fluid as well as assist in the removal of additional hormones that your body produces to develope your baby. Lymphatic drainage is a manual technique that requires a special certification. Lymphatic drainage massage stimulates the lymph system by light flowing "pumping" pressure to assist the lymph fluid to the lymph nodes throughout your body's exit points; neck, armpits, and groin. The liver and gut have their own lymph system while our immune system is housed in the gut making lymphatic drainage critical to your immunity support for overall health and wellness. Manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) main function is to accerlate the process of detoxification by removing accumulated fluid waste from the tissues and organs between the cells and their breadown of residue fluid to be eliminated.
