MassageTherapy £60for 60 minutes
WHERE//The London Wellness Centre

THE LOWDOWN//As well as assessing
your body from head to toe (literally) to
determine the source of a prob lem the
chiropractor al so performs al l-over
adjustments. The treatment made an
instantimpact but understanding it
gaveme tools to focus on prevention
rather than the cure. The deep tissue
massage that followedwas certainly
curative however. Knots I’d had for
mont hs released then and there
and my niggling glute tension was
addressed like no massage I’ve had
befo re.
VERDICT//
Forget
candles
and spa
music; this
sorts you
out for
real life.

THE LOWDOWN//Wele da’s Skin Food
Facial is essentially a deconstruction
of its cult Skin Foodproduct. Designed
to re store radiance the facial begins
witha warm damp flannel soaked in
Rosemary BathMilk which opens up
the pore s and wakes up circulatio n.
Grime and make-up is removed befo re
the best part a massage withth e
delicious Almond Soothing Facial Oil.
Nextup is the mask – a generous layer
of Skin Food– which is melted away
after five minutes by a heavenly warm
flannel soaked in Lavender BathMilk.
VERDICT//
Nothing fancy
just a really
good facial that
leftmy skin
glowing. Same
time again
tomorrow
please?

WHAT//LED light therapy £55
for45-minute Phantom Facial
WHERE//Askinology London
020 70432233askinology.com
THE LOWDOWN//Think futuristic
then add a decade – say hello to this
brea kthrough technology. The LED
Phantom facial mask looks like you
should be in a theatre performing
Phantom of the Opera(hence the name)
but it works wonders on your skin and
you don’t have to brea k a leg in the
process. A quick cleanse and tone
using SkinCeuticals treatments was
followedby 15 minutes ofrelaxation
wearing the mask which uses a rang e
of coloured lights to re laxener gise and
stimulate collagen. If you’re prone to
brea kouts then
the mask can
emit a blue light
that fights
acne-causing
bacteria.
VERDICT//
Light years
ahead.
