Let Me ask you...
Jemma Sandell Relax & Remedy Advanced Massage and skin care in Ferndown, East Dorset
When it comes to skin what you can see on the surface is often only the symptom of a much deeper cause.

This is why I choose to work with high grade derma-cosmeceutical skincare range – Nimue, not just working on the problems you can see but working deep within the skin. Often our skin isn’t as healthy as it could be and part of your skin transformation is to repair and work on your skin health.

I’ve worked with various skin brands over the years and I got to a point where I knew there was better out there, I knew I could offer my clients better results. That’s why I spent over a year researching and trialling various products to find something that worked for me and my clients.

As someone who has suffered with my skin for most of my adult life I can totally relate to how it feels to not be happy with what you see. I can understand the overwhelm with products that say they will fix it and then the disappointment when they don’t.

Book A Consultation

There are lots of products and treatments out there that will tell you they can fix x,y,z so how do you know what to choose, how do you know what will really work for you?

This is where the importance of a professional consultation comes in, I’m here to truly listen and understand your skin concerns. I want to know how it started, when it started, how it changes, what makes it better/ worse, what have you tried and for how long etc.

Your consultation will be a good conversation all about you and your skin, from a more holistic approach. There are so many factors that can affect our skin – environment, stress, what we put on it, diet, and medication, we will cover all bases.

What to expect

It’s important to understand that when it comes to skin a one time treatment isn’t going to solve your problems, it may help for a bit but it won’t solve it. Imagine going to the gym once a month and hoping to get the results you want – unfortunately it doesn’t quite work like that, you need to put the effort in between treatments with homecare.

But like having a personal trainer at the gym consider me your personal skin trainer!

With my knowledge and expertise and your commitment we can transform your skin.

FAQs

As you go down Nimrod Way, you will see a big building called ‘Superior’ directly in front, Arena will be to your left. I am in that building at the front (A block), head into reception let the ladies know you’re here to see me and I’ll meet you there.

Yes, plenty! As you arrive you’ll see there is a small car park to the front, this is the closest parking to where I am and also has disabled bays. If this area is full then you’ll see an open gate that takes you through to the main car park. If you park here, head back towards A block and you’ll see a sign for Reception – there is a sign both front and back of the building.

Reception closes at 5pm, so for any appointments after that time I will be keeping an eye out for and will meet you at the door at the front of A block just along from the Reception entrance. Please do not enter the building with someone else.

Don’t come fresh from the hairdressers, especially if you’d like a scalp massage! When coming for a Remedy Massage wearing a vest top or something similar helps when carrying out your ROM assessment, but it can be done in a t-shirt or in your bra, however you’re comfortable.

Some lose comfy clothing to go home in is best – it can be tricky putting skinny jeans or leggings on when you’ve got oil or massage wax on. Don’t wear your best undies or white shirt in case of oil/wax transfer.

Other than that come as you are, don’t worry about shaving or painting your toenails.

Probably, there are many medical conditions that mean people can still have massage. I’ve met many clients over the years who have been told they cannot have massage and most of the time it’s down the lack of training or experience from the Therapist. Always be sure to disclose any medical conditions and medication as it may just mean your treatment needs to be altered but there are also the rare occasions that massage may not be suitable for you. This can all be discussed during a consultation.

Ensure that it’s been at least 3 days since any facial hair removal – waxing, electrolysis, threading etc. At least 4 weeks since any IPL/ Laser treatment, Botox, Fillers, injectables, skin resurfacing or chemical peels.

Again don’t come on a fresh hair day! Wear something comfy. You’ll be required to remove your top and bra or bra straps so I can work on the décolleté but you will be covered for the duration of your treatment.

No, the peels that I use are gentle on the skin meaning that there is no down time. You will already be using homecare that helps to prepare your skin in advance therefore minimising the chance of  any reaction.

A consultation is the best option if you’re not sure, we can talk through your concerns and decide on a plan of action. There is also a form on the Massage page that you can complete with your concerns and I can contact you to discuss your best option. For skin you can try the ‘Consultation & Bespsoke Treatment’ option where you will receive a consultation and treatment on the same day.

Your plan will be created specifically for you and designed to improve the condition you came to me with, however it is a joint effort and you will need to commit to completing your side of the deal. That means sticking to your homecare plan as well as any other recommendations or suggestions.

You will need to be patient as results can take time, but this will all be discussed with you during your consultation
