SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., June 17, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- As summer rolls into full swing across the country, many of us are beginning to neglect our skincare routine. At Massage Envy Spa, the pioneer and national leader of professional, convenient and affordable massage and spa services, we are committed to helping you keep your skin looking and feeling great. Together with our partner, the leading skincare authority, Dr. Murad, we've put together these top tips to care for your skin this summer.
- Treat yourself. Take the time to de-stress and rejuvenate your skin with a facial. Massage Envy Spa locations offer facials designed by Dr. Murad, the authority in skin health. Members and guests can choose from four different Murad® Healthy Skin facials including Environmental Shield® Vitamin C, Clarifying Enzyme Acne, Anti-Aging and Sensitive Skin.
- Protect your skin. Everyone knows that sunscreen application is important to protect against UVA/UVB rays, but did you know that antioxidants and anti-inflammatories are just as important? Antioxidants can help protect against damaging free radicals responsible for visible signs of aging such as fine lines, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation and uneven texture. We recommend vitamin C and pomegranate extract for added antioxidant protection. Also, anti-inflammatories help neutralize redness and prevent inflammatory cell damage. Try arnica, zinc and aloe vera.
- Prevent breakouts. During the hot, humid summer months you tend to have more breakouts because of increased oil production in skin. To alleviate some peripheral breakouts, we recommend using a cleanser with a high amount of salicylic acid.
- Eat right. Food fuels your body and mind and eating the right foods can strengthen your skin's ability to protect itself against environmental damage. Select water-rich raw fruits and vegetables such as goji berries, tomatoes, watermelon, broccoli, cabbage, mangoes, strawberries and green tea.
"With all the travel, time spent in the sun and outdoor activities that take place; the summer months can be tough on our skin," says CG Funk, vice president of industry relations and product development for Massage Envy Spa. "We encourage our members and guests to follow these simple skincare tips to ensure their skin stays healthy and beautiful all summer long."
In addition to facials, Massage Envy Spa offers a variety of massage treatments, including Swedish, Trigger Point, Deep Tissue, Sports, Prenatal and Geriatric. The proven benefits of routine massage include improved circulation, joint flexibility and posture, relief from pain and swelling caused by arthritis, reduced blood pressure, fatigue, migraine pain and stress, as well as improved sleep, concentration and overall sense of well-being. In addition, the 90-minute Hot Stone Envy® features the placement of smooth, water-heated stones at key points on the body to allow for deeper relaxation of the muscles. Other services that are part of Massage Envy Spa's Enhanced Therapies menu include Aroma Therapy, Sugar Foot Scrub Therapy and Deep Muscle Therapy, which can be added to any massage to enhance the experience and stress relief.
Open seven days a week, each Massage Envy Spa offers convenient times and locations to fit any guest's needs. Visit Massage Envy Spa on Facebook or on Twitter.
