Treatments and training

Yin Your Skin Lifting & Renewal Gua Sha Facelift is a transformative treatment, more than just a facial. The effects of this unique facial gua sha treatment travel from the skin to the core. The treatment invigorates the lymph flow, skin metabolism and releases tension in the connective tissue, which improves skin mobility and tissue hydration. It effectively relaxes the nervous system layer by layer, providing optimal conditions for the renewal of the skin, body and mind.

The treatment visibly brightens and tightens the skin, instantly removes puffiness, and accentuates facial features like the contour of the jawline and cheekbones. The treatment brings together techniques from the traditional gua sha, acupressure, connective tissue manipulation and manual lymph drainage performed by gua sha tools. The 100-minute treatment is a combination of facial gua sha from the décolletage to the crown of the head and Yin Your Skin signature sound healing composed by Finnish pianist and composer IRENE.

The treatment is available at The Healing House of Muse & Heroine in Paris. Bookings here.

Cosmetic acupuncture is a holistic treatment method that balances the body and mind, treating signs of ageing, stress, and fatigue. The treatment doesn’t aim only for local and superficial changes and results, but improves wellness also on a deep, holistic level. By achieving balance in the body and mind, skin on the face lights up and becomes radiant – and eyes reflect a newfound sparkle. The purpose of cosmetic acupuncture is to support healthy ageing and help individuals glow at their current age.

During the treatment, sterile, disposable acupuncture needles (usually 15 mm long) are used on the face. In addition, intradermal needles (3-7 mm long) are used and handled with tweezers. In addition to the face, body needles are always used in cosmetic acupuncture to treat and balance the whole body. Acupuncture points on the body are always selected individually based on the interview and tongue and pulse diagnosis.

Celluma Pro LED therapy is used to enhance the effect of acupuncture needles. The different colors of the wavelength penetrate to different depths of the tissues, providing additional boost for treating wrinkles, sagging tissue, dull skin tone, and impurities.

Dr. Vodder’s Manual Lymphatic Drainage, recognized as the gold standard of manual lymphatic drainage, uses light, rhythmic touch to remove excess fluid, pathogens, and cellular waste from your tissues. It promotes free flow of fluids, and improves transportation of oxygen and nutrients to your cells. This treatment is gentle, yet highly effective. It reduces puffiness, redness, and irritation but also promotes cell regeneration, giving your skin a healthy glow and natural facelift.

The treatment is suitable for everyone, especially for the dull, stressed, fatigued, and mature skin, as well as for acne, scars, rosacea, and couperose skin. The effects of the light, rhythmic touch travels from the skin to the core and allows your nervous system to calm – creating a space where you can rest, relax and rejuvenate.
