TenStretch – The UK’s first reformer-based stretch class

Image
Ten Health & Fitness have created the UK’s first reformer-based stretch class that will loosen up your whole body and help you enjoy a greater range of movement in shoulders, hips and spine. This is a very intelligent class created by master trainer Erica Foulds who believes that a reformer class will give you a deeper and more effective stretch than a traditional one.  During a class, the trainer will lead you through a progression of dynamic stretches to improve all-round flexibility and mobility. There will be a specific focus on the problem areas and muscles groups most adversely affected by the muscular imbalances and postural challenges of our 21 st  century living. This class will improve your range of motion around many of the joints in the body. You will enjoy a series of deep, yet controlled positions and movements, carefully aligning the body to produce isolated stretches to specific muscles. You will experience more flexibility and your ...

Presenting PRISM LIGHTS: Bring back your child-like blonde

Image
Having glossy, coloured hair is sometimes difficult to achieve. Luckily, the PRISM LIGHTS is an innovative technique which uplifts the face. Its ‘whisper-light’ application creates light-reflecting colour giving the gloss and shine which is often so hard to achieve with coloured hair. PRISM LIGHTS are ‘free painted’ onto the hair in fine strands, with lights concentrated around the mid-lengths and through the root. The ends of the hair are then also free-painted by layering two tones of subtly lighter shades resulting in a seamless look. The magic of PRISM LIGHTS lies in its special light reflecting abilities. The pioneer of this technique, Christel Lundqvist, is the three time winner of the Colour Technician of the Year Award. Her expertise is demonstrated beautifully in this technique with the prism method allowing the light to 'open up’ and stream through the hair, bouncing off the cuticle six times more than it normally would, giving your face a halo of radiance. In order...

The ideal first step to a toxic free beauty routine

Image
Time to switch to a natural deodorant? We get exposed to thousands of chemicals and toxins when we use soaps, shampoos, lotions, beauty products and deodorants. Some of the most harmful chemicals are normally included in most deodorants and antiperspirants that we buy. You should always read the ingredients list carefully even if the label says “clean” or “natural”. Some disadvantages using a deodorant with chemicals are that the body is unable to eliminate toxins and the ability to regulate body temperature is reduced. Then there is the question if it can cause cancer? Some say that there is a link between deodorants and some sort of cancers, specifically breast cancer. Only a few studies have been done and two of the studies did not find any relationship between breast cancer and underarm antiperspirants/deodorants. Another study done in 2004 found parabens in 18 out of 20 samples of tissue from breast tumours. Here are 5 different toxins that you should avoid...
