Best “ANTI-AGING FACIAL”(Intense Pulsed Light Facial)
By NEW YORK MAGAZINE “BEST of New York”

SHIZUKA new york’s award winning IPL Facial is an exciting new treatment that reaches below the surface of your skin. This high-tech treatment using MediLuxTM Photo facial (IPL) delays premature aging and restores a healthy and youthful glow. It firms and tones facial muscles, increases elasticity, smoothes lines and wrinkles and refines skin texture. Cell renewal is facilitated as it oxygenates and nourishes your skin to total rejuvenation. This is the Beauty editor’s favorite treatment. IPL facials will dramatically eliminate signs of sun damage, aging, and the redness of Rosacea, on the face and neck. The advantage of IPL is that it can remove surface pigmentation and vascular lesions, while stimulating collagen formation to improve skin texture, reduce pores and minimize the appearance of fine facial wrinkles. Four to five sessions are recommended at 3 weeks intervals for the best results. * with Shizuka $250 * with her associates $200

10 Natural Ways to Relax and Feel Good

Here are 10 ways to reduce stress, boost your immune system, and slow down the hands of time.

Stretch & yoga. The slow movements and controlled postures of yoga improve muscle strength, flexibility, balance, circulation, mental focus, and calmness.

Exercise regularly. It is worth walking or dancing — strengthens your cardiovascular system, heart, muscles, and bones. It also stimulates the release of endorphins; improves mental functioning, concentration/ attention, and cognitive performance; and lowers cholesterol, blood pressure, cortisol, and other stress hormones.

Wash hands. The most effective way to prevent the spread of germs is with good hand hygiene. Washing your hands as soon as you come home and before you eat, greatly reduces the risk of bacterial and viral infections.

Eat well. Eat foods rich in antioxidants (strawberries, oranges, tomatoes), omega-3 fatty acids (walnuts, salmon, soybeans), and folate (dark green, leafy vegetables).

Drink tea. Enjoying green and black teas throughout the day as these can help strengthen your immune system and your body’s ability to fight off germs and infections.

Listen to your favorite music. Listening to your favorite music is a great method of reducing stress and anxiety.

Sleep. Sound sleep has a profound impact on stress levels, immune function, and disease resistance. Your body and immune system recover during sleep, so strive to get in seven to eight hours each night.

Take a bath. Relaxing in a hot bath relieves muscles and joints, reduces stress and tension, and promotes sleep. Add music, soft lighting, and scented oils for more relaxation.

Laugh more often. There is truth to the saying that laughter is the best medicine. Laughing reduces stress hormones like adrenaline (epinephrine) and cortisol and benefits the immune system.

Positive thinking. Optimism can counteract the negative impact that stress, tension and anxiety have on your immune system and general well-being.
