Radiant Beauty at Everything Zen

Friday April 29 at 6:30 Kathleen will present a workshop about Chinese “beauty” formulas, herbal remedies that promote healthy skin. Beauty is more than skin deep, and beauty is best when it comes from the inside out.

We’ll talk about the factors contributing to healthy skin from a Chinese point of view and address problems such as dry skin, acne and premenstrual skin changes. Kathleen will bring a sample formula to show you and to try, and she’ll make a special tea for the Sin Ni San ladies’ (you’ll have to come to find out who you are). She will also demonstrate facial acupuncture for wrinkles.

Come have a fun evening at Holly Potter’s fabulous studio, Everything Zen, 156 King’s Highway in Groton. Call Holly 860-861-8978 to RSVP.

Feel healthier and more relaxed with Shiatsu and Amma.

Robin Vizthum, LMT,  has just completed 22 continuing education units in Shiatsu/Amma. Shiatsu is application of pressure on specific points along the acupuncture meridians. Amma is a Japanese form of massage based on the principles of Asian Medicine. Shiatsu can be performed fully clothed or added to a Swedish style massage. Both are excellent compliments to acupuncture and massage.

Schedule a 60 or 90 minute massage with Robin in the month of June and she’ll treat you to ten extra minutes of experiencing her newly learned techniques. We’re sure you’ll love them.
