Dr. Scholl's DR6622 Toe-Touch Foot Spa with Massage

2009-07-27T07:47:00.000-07:00

This foot fixer does the same as a much higher priced one when comparing it to one I had a few year ago. I don't necessarily care for the massage attachments and prefer to use it just the way it is. It has a heating element to keep the water warm and when adding my foot softner I can't go wrong. I would recommend.

Your little feet bear the brunt of your entire weight multiplied by the force derived from the inertia of walking, running, or merely standing on line. And they can be the source of pain. The ancients believed (and many still do) that the pains throughout the body are sourced by ailments within the feet.

These problems affect how energy flows throughout the body. As an alternate medicine, Reflexology is the physical act of applying pressure to the feet and hand with specific thumb, finger and hand techniques without the use of oil or lotion. Dr Scholl's DR6622 Ultra Cord Cordless Pedicure Foot Spa is designed to provide comfort for sore, aching feet. Three included attachments provide some of the techniques you might receive from a reflxologist.

Vibration and massage modes help stimulate blood circulation and may reduce acid build-up in stiff, sore muscles. While it may not be a cure all for body ailments, it'll definitely soothe your feet and help make you feel better.

Beautiful Homedics ARM-CAN1 AromaSpa Flameless Candle Aroma Oil Diffuser

2009-06-24T05:00:00.000-07:00

I really like this product. Homedics ARM-CAN1 AromaSpa Flameless Candle Aroma Oil Diffuser. I use it in my bedroom. You only need to put a little bit of oil in it and it lasts a long time. I just put enough to coat the bottom of the oil cup and it lasts over a week if I don't change the scent. With a oil burner with a flame candle I don't get the same results.

I think its pretty and goes with many decors. I don't think the rocks block the scent from coming out. There is no real flame so its safer to use around my cats, who were curious at first but now they don't bother it. There is also an auto shut off feature that turns the unit off after 6 hours. The only con is that it has to be plugged in for the scent. You can use the candle part on just batteries. I like the idea of using different rocks or marbles to change the look. I might try that.

Skin Care Formulas: General Guidelines

2009-01-29T06:00:00.000-08:00

Consult with your client while assessing the skin’s general condition. Discuss your findings with the client, obtaining the most accurate information that will assist you in preparing the proper formula.

For skin care, the practitioner will be massaging the solution directly into the skin. And it will stay in the tissue for hours, if not days. The penetration ability of essential oil is why it is so effective. In ranking the three areaso f the professional market-hair, skin, and nail care-aromatherapy was best designed for the skin.

Essential oils travel through the epidermal tissue with ease due to their minute molecular structure, and their compatibility to the cell structure in the epidermall ayers. Another element to thesu ccess of essential oils’ ability to penetrate the skin is that they are lipophilic. This means that they have an affinity for fat cells.

Since fat cel!s of the skin are found in the subcutaneous layer, the absorption rate of most essential oils is immediate. For all cleansers you begin with a base: two ounces for each client. Add the essential oils into the base. For sensitive skin and/or mild solutions: the mixture should be comprised of up to ten drops of essential oils.

Use less top note oils. For moderate solutions: the mixture shouldb e comprised of up to twenty drops o f essential oils. You have more freedom in selecting the various potent oils.

For powerful solutions: mix up to thirty drops o f essential oils. Using the strongest top notoei ls may mean that the numbeorf drops is drastically reduced. ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT LESS IS BETTER.

Essential oils are said to be the heart and soul of aromatherapy. This is perhaps because it is the one that provides the main material used in this process. Essential oils are found in plants. From its roots to its fruits, essential oils are in their different parts. In fact, there are some plants that can provide you with different essential oils. Others can only give you one scent although the oils can be extracted in different parts of the plants.

Quality Of The Essential Oil Extracted

Despite coming from natural plant sources, essential oils have different quality. Like many products, some are better than others. Quality of the essential oils will depend on the plant source, how it was grown, the climate where it was grown and the condition of the soil. For instance, a plant source that is grown organically will give better quality essential oils than the plants which were sprayed with pesticides or had industrial chemicals put into it. Another factor that can affect the quality is how it is harvested as well as the process used during extraction.

Methods Of Extraction

Oils can be extracted in different methods. There is the steam distillation which is the most common. Another is the cold pressed method, which is often done with citrus plants and nuts.

Aromatherapy massage is a kind of massage using essential oils incorporated to the conventional massage lotions or oil. The only difference from regular massage is the use of essential oils and yet that simple distinction makes regular massage and aromatherapy massage worlds apart. The reason is in the oils.

Rosemary oil is good to energize and cleanse the body. If, however, one needs more than just to be re- energized, the essential oils from clary sage, rose and neroli are good for uplifting the soul.

Aromatherapy massage, just like any other massages is not for everyone.

The contact and pressure on the skin will cause more pain and trouble than relief.

Enjoy Burning Aromatherapy Candles

2008-09-13T12:44:00.000-07:00

I enjoy burning candles, a lot. One of the problems I recently discovered was the candles I was burning were putting off soot. I always knew that the aromatherapy candles I used would puff a little black stuff every now and then, like when I would open the door or walk by them. But I didn’t realize how bad that little black puff was until I tried painting my living room this weekend!

I generally keep my house pretty clean so I wouldn’t say that I’m a clean freak or OCD’ish (is that a word?) about it. I felt a little adventurous this weekend so I thought I would paint the living room in my house. I haven’t painted it since I moved in about two years ago, so I was really tired of looking at the same color.

Soy aromatherapy candles use non-toxic and non-carcinogenic wax. They make the most environmentally friendly candle available. Paraffin candles on the other hand impart numerous toxins and carcinogens in to the air while burning. This produced unhealthy indoor air quality and you certainly don’t want that.

Soy aromatherapy candles are made from all natural soybeans. These soybeans are farm-grown and most of them are organic, which means that they were never exposed to the chemicals contained in pesticides or chemical fertilizers. Paraffin wax candles on the other hand are made from petroleum-based by product of gasoline and kerosene refining.

Aromatherapy Candle

I ordered a Paul Robinett candle just to annoy the anti-commercial forces on YouTube. I bought fragrance #23, Sandalwood - Serenity. I like the aroma which reminds me of an arts store I used to visit. My cat does not like the smell though. I learned how to adjust the black/white balance in Adobe Premiere so some of the clips should look better.

Nice Video that i am presting to you.

This candles are specially made with soy oils and are designated to use as a massage therapy. They will not burn your skin but as any beauty or skin care product, test an area before use for irritation risk.

What do you think about this? Please comment.

Add Finishing Touches to Soy Candles

When making your own soy candles, you can add some finishing touches before giving them as gifts. Or you can decorate store bought candles to give them a personal touch. Use your imagination, and look around your home for things to use when finishing candles.

Step1 Check that the top surface of your soy candle is smooth. If you pour the soy into the jar when it is too hot, it cools with an uneven surface that has small holes in it. Use a hair dryer set on low to warm the soy and smooth it out.

Step2 Make a decorative label and glue it onto the front of the candle jar. If you candle is scented, print the name of the scent on the label. Decorate the label to reflect any current holidays or the interests of the gift recipient. You can also use your label to identify yourself as the person who made the candle.

Step3 Fill the lid of your jar. Most candle jars have plastic caps on the bottom of the lid that can be removed with a screwdriver. Remove the cap and put in dried or plastic flowers, colored stones or marbles, colored sand or a picture. Place the lid back on the top of the jar candle. Tie a ribbon around the jar, up near the lid, to finish your candle.
