 In the last couple of years, Wood therapy otherwise known as maderoterapia, has garnered huge attention as people attest to its outstanding results and therapeutic effects. It is a form of massage that is carried out on the body using wooden tools that come in different shapes and sizes for different purposes and body parts.
In spite of the recent spike in the use of wood therapy, it has since been in existence and has been practiced for centuries bearing roots in Asia. It has evolved over time from the use of rough woods to smooth woods for varied results. In recent times, people have gone from using wood therapy for practical reasons such as reducing stress and balancing energy to more aesthetic related reasons.

 Man's best friend might have a thing or two to teach us about cleanliness: The beards covering men's faces hide "significantly higher" amounts of bacteria than found on dogs, a recent study suggests.
The research, published in February in the peer-reviewed journal European Radiology, compared bacteria samples from 18 hairy men with those from 30 dogs, including border collies, dachshunds and German shepherds. The conclusion? "On the basis of these findings, dogs can be considered as 'clean' compared with bearded men," the Switzerland-based researchers noted. Twenty-three of the 30 dogs showed high microbial counts; all 18 of the bearded men did. Disease-causing bacteria showed up more frequently on the beards, too, including bugs causing urinary tract infections, though that difference was not deemed significant. Researchers took bacterial samples from the dogs' necks, between the shoulder blades, which veterinarians suggest is "particularly unhygienic" and where most canine skin infections occur, the study says. The dogs were 3 months to 13 years in age. The men, ages 18 to 76, gave samples from beard hair below the mouth. Researchers noted the length of each beard "by gently pulling on the beard hair and measuring the length in centimeters with a ruler." "The beards of men harbor significantly more microbes than the neck fur of dogs and these microbes were significantly more pathogenic to humans," per the study. Authors acknowledged limitations of the study, including its size. They said similar research could be done with hair samples from women’s heads, which could carry just as much bacteria as men’s beards. The research, which occurred at three radiology departments in Europe, arose from a technological question. Only a few veterinary clinics in the continent had MRI scanners reserved solely for animals, the authors said, prompting a question: Is it safe for dogs and humans to use the same MRI machine   Hydrating Botanical Elixir is what we like to call the Magick potion!

Exfoliation is a process of removing dead skin cells from the surface of your skin. Whether you know it or not your skin sheds daily and exfoliating insures you don’t create any skin issues. No matter what your skin type is exfoliating will benefit you!
You can choose between a gentle daily scrub or you can use a more corser scrub to use at least once a week , it has so many benefits. Of course you want to ensure you have quality products so your skin is only absorbing nutrients and not a bunch of chemicals. Since you skin naturally creates new skin you don’t want to have build up and then waste your product on dead skin. A lot of people would be surprised at how their skin isn’t really as dry as they. As well as they will see less and less acne and have smoother skin. Your products are able to do what you bought them to do and you can live happily ever after with clean and clear skin! ** Side note daily use of a course scrub or a scrub with harsh chemicals it can strip your skin. Let's be honest you can get all the facial and body treatments done professionally but you want to ensure you are continuing the at home care so you can continue to see progress. A lot of the common skin issues we deal with are more so due to the lack of daily skincare routine. Just soap and water will not solve your issues.
*Tip* Ideally the best scrub is one that acts as both a gentle exfoliant and moisturizer at the same time! Such as our Sweet Coffee Butter Scrub for your body and our Pumpkin Enzyme Treatment for your face. Both leave you with smooth and glowing skin. Hello Superstar!
