Beauty Wisdom

Many traditional remedies from Asia, learnt from her grandmother's knee, make up the wisdom of the treatments and tips of beauty therapist Bharti Vyas. Her ethos has always been to help those who come to her clinic or ring her helpline to help themselves - using her therapy oils at home with a course of self massage, achieving muscle tone with simple exercises and using dead sea salts to revitalise the skin. The book contains: a top-to-toe guide with all the tricks of the trade - from bags under the eyes to Indian scalp massage for the hair and scalp - every part of the body is dealt with in turn; a home spa regime using oil and self-massage with acupressure to balance the body systems; lymphatic drainage and postural advice; make up, haircare and manicure advice; nutrition and inner body health; "kitchen cupboard" treatments; and over 100 colour photos.
