The Health Benefits of Dry Skin Brushing:
-
Promotes Lymphatic Flow: Dry brushing stimulates the lymphatic system, which plays a vital role in detoxifying the body by transporting lymph—a fluid containing white blood cells, waste, and toxins. By encouraging lymph flow, dry brushing helps the body eliminate waste more efficiently, which may bolster immune function and reduce swelling.
-
Enhances Circulation: The brushing motion increases blood flow to the skin and underlying muscles, bringing oxygen and nutrients to cells while aiding in cellular regeneration. Improved circulation can give the skin a natural glow and energise the body, leaving you feeling refreshed.
-
Exfoliates Dead Skin Cells: Dry brushing is an effective exfoliating method that helps remove the layer of dead skin cells on the surface, unclogging pores and allowing the skin to breathe. Regular exfoliation promotes a softer, smoother skin texture and may reduce the appearance of dry patches, leaving the skin more receptive to moisture.
-
Encourages Cellular Renewal: By brushing the skin, you lightly stimulate skin cell turnover. This gentle stimulation supports the production of new skin cells, which can help maintain a youthful appearance and improve skin elasticity over time.
-
Reduces the Appearance of Cellulite: Although not a permanent solution, dry brushing is believed to temporarily reduce the appearance of cellulite. It improves circulation to the skin’s surface, helping to plump the skin and smooth out dimpled areas, giving a more toned and refined look.
-
Supports Natural Detoxification: As dry brushing engages the lymphatic system and enhances blood circulation, it aids the body’s natural detox pathways. By encouraging the movement of lymph, dry brushing helps flush out toxins that accumulate from environmental exposure, diet, and cellular waste, supporting an internal cleanse.
-
Increases Skin Firmness and Tone: The massaging effect of dry brushing can improve skin elasticity, helping to firm and tone the skin. This is particularly beneficial for areas that may experience slackness, such as the upper arms, thighs, or abdomen.
-
Relieves Stress and Boosts Energy: The invigorating nature of dry brushing can have a positive effect on energy levels and mood. Many people find that the tactile stimulation is calming and centering, similar to a gentle massage, while others feel more energized due to increased circulation and enhanced oxygenation.
Dry brush before you shower. Brush in sweeping circular motions - feet up, legs up, hands in, neck down, back, and torso all the way towards the heart. Rinse your skin in the shower, dry, and lather up with your favourite natural oil or cream. We recommend our natural organic jojoba oil as it aligns to our natural skin sebum and cn be used on any skin type - both nourishing, soothing and softening.
Wash your brush once per week in warm soapy water and sun dry.
