Breathe in, Breathe out...oxygen is the word of the day

Oxygen...what do we all know about it? There is so much to be learned about this simple thing that we breathe in and out each day! Did you know that the atmosphere is about 20% oxyegn? Did you know that it used to be 35% just a few hundred years ago?! With more pollution, many more toxins, and the human body being unable to adapt to this change quickly, we are seeing a lack of oxygen and the health problems associated with it....THE GOOD NEWS? The good news is that HYPERBARIC OXYGEN THERAPY is available, and it is available at Whitelight Skincare. What can this do for me, you ask?

Let's start with...
*Increased fat burning
*Supersaturation of tissue with O2
*Faster recovery from hard workouts
*Better sleep
*Increased speed and endurance
*Decreased muscle soreness
*Platic Surgery and healing time
*Decreases migraines
*Overall skin and hair health (get that "glow")
Can help with side effects of...
*Traumatic brain injury and coma
*Stroke
*Cerebral palsy
*Age related macular degeneration
*MS
*Chronic fatigue syndrome
*Chron's disease
*Chemical detox
*Burns, crush injury, soft tissue infections
*Diabetic ulcer healing
*Heart Disease
*Autism

There are so many more to list, but I would be here all day! The bottom line is....you come to our spa, you climb into the Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber for one hour, where you can be on your phone, read, or sleep (whichever you please) with no side effects. Come try it! Your brain and body will love you!

Re-Vitalize yourself!

Need a little pick me up? Skin looking drab, and not fab? Try the Skinmedica VITALIZE peel. I tried this bad boy about a week ago, and my skin has peeled it's way to a glamourous, dewy, glowing new look! The peel is alpha and beta hydroxy acids, and topped off with PURE retinoic acid. It burns just a bit, then you wash it off 5 hours later, revealing tight, slightly pink skin. You get one day of amazing tight skin, then the day after you start to lightly peel. This is manageable with a gentle cleanser, and a warm washcloth. Be sure to moisturize even though it feels dry :) Anyways, this peel is amazing, and I am looking forward for the days to come to see how awesome my skin looks!!! xoxo

Feed your skin!

Breakfast, lunch, dinner. Repeat. Breakfast, lunch, dinner...Snack...Does your week ever feel like that? Wanna make your meals more interesting? Ever thought of "feeding" your skin? Flooding it with the nutrients it deserves, to be it's beautiful best? Here are a few tips to nourish yourself from the inside out, and to ensure a better "looking" future!

1)Keep your plate colorful. I don't mean the actual plate itself, but the vegetables and fruits! The more bright color, the more antioxidants it has. Take for example, a red bell pepper over a green pepper. The red bell pepper holds oodles more of the wonder giant "antioxidant" which pushes free radicals aka damage inducers away from your skin and body! Sounds good to me!

2) Fat? Yes! Fatty acids actually. Essential fatty acids stregthen the membrane of your skin cells! The acids also allow for waste product to flow out of the cell easier, thus creating healthier cells and skin. The cell membrane also holds water, so if it is strong, it is going to hold water to keep your skin plump! The best way to get this? Fish oil supplements. Omega 3 and Omega 6. Give it a few weeks, you will notice a change!!!

3) The easiest of all of these? GREEN TEA! Have 1-3 cups a day! The amazing substance is anti inflammatory, using polyphenols as it's protector. What are polyphenols? Powerful antioxidant. What is an antioxidant? Antioxidants are substances or nutrients in our foods which can prevent or slow the oxidative damage to our body. Check out this link below, to get these basics on how to sneak these into your diet. http://www.healthcastle.com/antioxidant.shtml

With all of that being said, when you are grocery shopping, think "what will give me energy naturally, what will improve my digestion, what will fulfill my dietary needs, and WHAT WILL FEED MY SKIN?!

Cellulite? We all have it.....but no one wants to talk about it

So all we hear these days, is that there is NO CURE for cellulite. Not any longer my dear friends! The Body Care super innovator "ELEME" has gotten their Smooth Shapes cellulite reduction machine FDA approved. Yes, you heard that right, FDA! Amazing! This wonder gadget is rolled over your skin on abdomen, back, and lower body by a trained professional, all the while feeling like a deep tissue massage! A small laser inside also heats the cells and liquifies them, at which point they are whisked out of your body with LOTS of water! Who knew it was this simple?! One hour a week, for 3 months, and your skin texture is smoother, spider veins are less visible (another added benefit), your cellulite is virtually gone, and your skin is even tighter! Watch the SmoothShapes at work at the top of the screen!
