Body Brushing is invaluable in helping with so many issues, but mostly to naturally detox the body. The practice of brushing the skin is an age-old tradition used in Ayurvedic practice. It promotes lymphatic cleansing and is a powerful way to support the removal of cellular waste products from the body.
Details
Body brushing sweeps away dead skin cells to soften, smooth & improve skin luminosity & tone, while increasing microcirculation that brings essential nutrients to our skin’s cells. Regular use improves skin suppleness, reduces the effects of stress on the body & stimulates areas that accumulate cellulite to promote skin smoothing. It’s definitely something we should be adding i nto our self-care rituals.
We recommend dry-brushing in the morning, rather than before bed, because of its energizing qualities.
You can use the brush on its own, or you can put a little of the Conditioning Body Oil on the bristles before use. Shower/bath before skin-brushing if you’re using oil on the brush. If not, shower/bath after skin brushing, and then apply your Conditioning Body Oil. Body brushing optimises the absorption & benefits of the precious botanicals in the Conditioning Body Oil.
HOW TO USE YOUR BODY BRUSH:- Make sure the room you are in is at a comfortable temperature
- Always keep the direction of your stroke towards your heart
- Use long sweeping strokes on your arms & legs
- Start at your feet and move up onto your torso & then neck
- When brushing your arms, begin at the hands and work upwards towards your shoulders
- Massage your stomach & buttocks in clockwise, circular motions
- Apply light pressure on most of the body, especially the neck & chest. Firmer pressure can be used over the elbows, knees & feet
- Brush for at least 3-5 minutes, once to twice a week
*Harsh exfoliation is never the point, be sure not to press too hard. Any kind of brushing or exfoliation should be gentle and should never break the skin.

- If using an oil while brushing, wash after each use
- Store your brush in a place where it can air dry
- Avoid this treatment if you suffer from sensitive skin, especially eczema or psoriasis.
