Skincare The Naturopathic Way
"The condition of our skin can make a tremendous difference in how we perceive ourselves and has been linked to a profound impact on psychological health (…). The naturopathic approach takes into consideration the mind, body and spirit. Naturopathic doctors work with patients to uncover the root cause of skin issues and mitigate impacts in other organ systems." - AANMC

tHE eLAPROMED SYSTEM
The elapromed system is designed as a skin rejuvenation system. As a facial, elapromed treatments naturally support skin hydration, collagen formation, and support healing from acne.
Elapromed utilizes electronic micro-impulses which encourage the skin to absorb up to 70ml of our natural corrective nutritive formulations directly into the skin. The process acts like an electric syringe allowing our technician to provide a calming sensory stimulation over the face and neck while deeply hydrating the skin.
Learn more about the technology and skin treatment options elapromed.com or watch a demo video of the treatment process .
Our clients can book an elapromed Treatment and work with Dr. Jeffery on any skincare goals.
When booking your visit please choose the visit options under elapromed treatment.
The Mindfulness fACIAL
“The Mindfulness Facial” - Our Calming Facial
Overall, a facial is a very calming experience. We have developed our own protocol that utilizes the naturally relaxing aspects of a facial to guide our clients into a deep state of calm. This is crucial for the healing process in general. We find that individuals dealing with chronic health conditions, long-term stress, depression, or anxiety often have difficulty deeply relaxing at the beginning of treatment. Dr Jeffery has found based on clinical experiences that a facial can be an excellent tool to help ground oneself and begin the process of learning how to relax and self-regulate. We believe the positive feedback from the facial itself serves as encouragement to continue calming practices.
The face and neck are strongly connected to the vagus nerve and the parasympathetic nervous system. Supporting the vagus nerve can help shift our nervous system into a state of relaxation. We suspect that natural endorphins are also released during a facial.
In addition to the facial treatment, we use the elapromed device, which applies low electrical pulses over the face to further stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system. This is monitored with heart rate sensors and biofeedback equipment. During the treatment, we encourage clients to breathe deeply and listen to music to enhance the effects.
Over the course of four treatments, we guide our clients to incorporate home treatments such as breathing exercises and neurofeedback-guided meditation.
