Thai Stem facial benefits

Why is East Mountain Massage including Thai Stem Facials as treatments?

A lot of our patients have common complains: Migraines, Headaches and Tension Headaches, those who are having difficulties sleeping, or even have been diagnosed with or just experience high anxiety. Massage therapy alone has been scientifically proven to aide in reducing and in some cases completely alleviated these issues. By adding some herbal healing to the mix, it will increase the natural healing effects.

The way Thai Stem is applied by steaming the stems, which adds hot hydrotherapy, opening the pores up to allow the herbal contents to be absorbed into the skin and giving the patient a relaxing experience while the herbs are doing their healing.

Benefits:

Reduces headaches/migraines
Moisturizes your skin
Rebalancing pH levels
Adding antioxidants and vitamins (coconut base)
Omega 6, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, iron and vit B & E (Sesame oil)
Anti-inflammatory (Turmeric)
