Natural Ingredients for Targeted Pain

Farmaesthetics is infamous for having effective products, with all natural ingredients. They are beautifully packaged and available in both a retail and back bar size.

Massage therapists are going crazy for the Farmaesthetics Arnica Remedy Oil 

This highly specialized, non-aromatic herbalist formulation is prepared by hand with organically grown herbs. Unlike typical massage oils made with herbal extracts or aromatic essential oils, Farmaesthetics' Remedy Oils are infused with whole organic herbs. The herbs we choose undergo a traditional infusion process, allowing time to garner the healing properties inherent in each. The result is significant when used in hot bath soaks and external massage and absorbed through the skin.

Why is arnica so awesome?
Arnica is highly regarded in herbalism for its ability to diminish bruising and swelling in skin tissue. Arnica has a complex chemistry but simply put, the herb works to affect the blood vessels so that there is a rapid reduction of inflammation, the kind associated with the injured tissue. A capful used in external massage or in a warm bath soak is a simple, effective way to introduce Arnica into the system, while at the same time conditioning the skin & improving circulation. Dermatologists are now recognizing the many benefits of Arnica for patients following laser or plastic surgery.

For clients experiencing tired or sore muscles, try using Farmaesthetics Arnica Remedy Oil in your sports massages.  The result is significant when used in hot bath soaks and external massage and absorbed through the skin. You can also spike your favorite massage oil with just a capful.

Incorporate the 10 oz Remedy Oil into your services, and retail the 4 oz Remedy Oil for happy clients!

Organic Spaaahh! The Rising Demand for Organic Treatments

In this day and age, an increasing number of professionals and consumers (myself included), have become more and more concerned over the ingredients in our skin-care products. With so much information at our fingertips, it’s hard not to. I have developed the habit of immediately checking every skin-care product before I buy it to see if it has parabens (unwanted preservatives). I know I am not alone in this, and the industry is moving in the same direction.

Our growing heath concerns over the components in the products we are using on our skin, our clients, and family have fostered a huge growth in consumption of organic products and services, organic spas, wellness centers, holistic locations, and yoga studios. More and more products and product lines are removing the parabens and going more natural, because the demand is there. New natural based product lines are developing at a higher rate than ever before… Nails polishes (new and existing) are now becoming 3-Free (free of Dibutyl Phthalate, Formaldehyde, Toluene)…

Why? Because that is what we have learned is better for you, and the safety of the products we are using is important to all of us! Aside from the heath benefits, in order to grow your business in an already cluttered market, the services you provide have to match the demand.

As the growing market and demand for organic and natural based products continues, will more and more existing spas change to be organic as well? Have you?
