Massage Therapy's Impact on Mental Health Everyone has his or her own version of a self-care routine. Whether it’s doing a face mask before bed, hitting the gym, or booking a massage, self-care can play a positive role in our quality of life. For those who schedule massages, there are a whole host of benefits that this service can bring beyond the obvious physical relief.  In fact, massage therapy has been clinically proven to alleviate depressive symptoms, soothe anxiety, and boost energy.  This means that the mental relaxation that you feel after a massage doesn’t come solely from the champagne.  To the contrary, massage therapy actually causes changes at the physical level that can affect our overall happiness and mental well-being. This week, we’re going to break down three ways that massage therapy can help with our mental health. Massage Therapy [...]

What Is Microdermabrasion? Living in Florida, we know that the sun is great for our health and overall mood but not so great for our skin. Too much sun can lead to an array of skin problems, so you’ll need to protect your skin and take preventative measures to keep away sunspots and other forms of hyperpigmentation. Do you have damage from your days of frolicking around in the sun without sunscreen?  Or, do you simply have clogged pores or dull skin?  One solution is to manually exfoliate using microdermabrasion. After even your first treatment, your skin can shine bright like a diamond. Almost literally. Microdermabrasion is a non-chemical and minimally invasive procedure used to renew skin tone and texture, improving the appearance of sun damage, wrinkles, acne scarring and more. During the procedure, an esthetician will use a diamond-tipped wand [...]

What Is Dermaplaning? It may sound like it, but there is nothing sweet about peach fuzz. The little wisps, otherwise known as vellus hair, cover our face and cause more problems than you might otherwise think. Over time, these fine hairs trap oil, dirt, makeup and other debris, causing your skin to lose its glow and breakouts to occur. With dermaplaning, you can kiss your peach fuzz goodbye! At DayDreams Day & Med Spa, our estheticians use sterile, medical-grade surgical blades and featherlike strokes to shave the top layer of the epidermis.  These delicate strokes wipe away anything trapped on your face that a cleansing cannot, ridding the face of peach fuzz, dead skin cells, and the debris that has been trapped on the surface of your skin.  End result; you’ll have healthier and smoother skin. Dermaplaning is a painless and [...]
