Using Neals Yard Remedies Products on my clients & in my Training Academy

I am really happy with NYR products, since taking on the brand its had a fantastic impact on my own skin. I now get lots of comments on my skin - such as ' your glowing' and ' you look really well' this in itself has given me real confidence when using the range on my clients.



As a beauty therapist I made the decision to gradualy build the range and incorporate it into my treatments & therapies. All my clients are so happy with the brand and all feel the products work on 2 levels - firstly the skin benefits and also secondly the holistic benefits. I have started to incorporate body, hand, foot and hair treatments into my price list.

My beauty room which is also where I run my beauty training day courses, is totaly dedicated to NYR. I have posters on the walls, beautiful displays scattered around to display the product of the month (my choice) and I have also some recruitment cards on my desk. So very NYO orientated ! Well its definatly a great idea as far as spreaing the word and for me prime for capturing new therapists wanting or looking for a skin care brand to use!

So all in all, my point is, that NYR has been really beneficail to my business, its drawn clients to me, its taken current clients pampering to a whole new level and its opened up doors and networks that I may never have encounterd! and my Facial & Body courses are booming and the ladies are all loving the NYR brand!!

My wish list for the future is 1) larger size products for therapists 2) more monthly offers.....

Thought Id share my thoughts as now been with NYO for 6 months and I am a therapist and beauty trainer, so my comments are simply based on day to day use. I dont do parties and have no need to enter into this realm quite yet!

is it time you had a massage???

Massage is the manipulation of superficial and deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue to enhance function, aid in the healing process, and promote relaxation and well-being. The word comes from the French massage "friction of kneading", or from Arabic massa meaning "to touch, feel or handle" or from Latin massa meaning "mass, dough". Greek verb "to handle, touch, to work with the hands, to knead dough". In distinction the ancient Greek word for massage was anatripsis, and the Latin was frictio.

Massage involves acting on and manipulating the body with pressure – structured, unstructured, stationary, or moving – tension, motion, or vibration, done manually or with mechanical aids. Target tissues may include muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia, skin, joints, or other connective tissue, as well as lymphatic vessels, or organs of the gastrointestinal system. Massage can be applied with the hands, fingers, elbows, knees, forearm, and feet. There are over eighty different recognized massage variations. The most common reasons for introducing massage as therapy have been client demand and perceived clinical effectiveness, with relaxation and calming effects, both mind and body.

In professional settings massage involves the client being treated while lying on a massage table, sitting in a massage chair, or lying on a mat on the floor.

The client may be fully or partly unclothed. Parts of the body may be covered with towels or sheets. Those who practice massage as a career are referred to as masseurs, masseuses, or, if certified somehow, as massage therapists.
Massage is a very popular treatment in the beauty therapy industry.  You should never underestimate the benefits of massage.
