LEAVE YOUR "CANCER-LIFE" BEHIND

                                                               with SKIN REVITALIZING AND THE 3M's

 

THE SKIN REVIVAL

Our hydrating skin facial uses a combination of serums, creams, essential oils  and masks to restore your skin and assist in the turnover of new healthy cells.  Our facial will restore the glow you may have lost during treatment. Our goal is to alleviate dryness, generate a smooth,  soft texture and replenish the moisture that is missing.

THE IMPORTANCE OF THE 3M's

  • MASSAGE -The medical community and specifically Oncologists are recognizing the benefits and positive results massages have throughout the entire treatment and recovery.  Massages can be relaxing, alleviate anxiety and ease pain. These benefits can in some cases reduce metastasis of cancer cells by keeping stress levels at bay.  A relaxing massage also, may reduce the physical discomfort brought on by the side effects of treatment and have shown to improve quality of life after treatment.

 

  • MINDFULNESS - This aspect brings about a connection of mind and body. It is  advocated that one should establish mindfulness in one's day-to-day life maintaining as much as possible a calm awareness of one's bodily function. Mindfulness can alleviate a variety of mental and physical conditions.

 

  • MEDITATION- The physical act of meditation generally consists of simply sitting quietly, focusing on one's breath, a word or phrase. Studies have shown that meditation can help reverse heart disease, reduce pain and enhance the body's immune system, enabling it to better fight disease. Meditation shows us that happiness is not dependent on outer circumstances, but on our inner attitude. Through meditation practice you have the ability of returning to a peaceful, tranquil, serene place in your own mind, by doing so you can alleviate stress and anxiety.

 Our Ribbon Retreat allows us to be of assistance and offer support through recommended therapies shown to minimize the discomforts brought on by your illness and it's side effects.

 

MD Anderson Cancer Center states;

 "Research suggests that stress-reduction programs tailored to the cancer setting, such as massage, may help patients cope with the side effects of treatment and improve quality of life after treatment. The use of massage therapy for cancer patients has become more common in recent years as a way to reduce pain, anxiety and nausea." MD Anderson
