   Posted on 12:00pm Friday 31st Jan 2025

   

   Created to enhance the condition & appearance of the skin. Boosting the skin's natural ability to heal itself.

   The SOVERAL method is designed to alleviate the face from tight muscles, blocked lymph channels, and the look of small lines and wrinkles.

   Five steps to healthier skin

   1. Detoxification
   Specialized lymphatic stimulation and drainage of the face's tissues.
   Soveral's distinct detoxification method creates room in the face tissues, aiding in the removal and elimination of deep-seated toxins and stagnant lymph

   2. Lymphatic Pathway Clearing
   Blood flow is increased, and the muscles along the lymphatic path in the neck and chest are softened, extending the advantages of facial drainage.

   3. Activation
   Promoting Collagen & Elastin Growth
   By activating blood flow to a specific area, Soveral's techniques direct oxygenated blood to the skin's surface, while a mixture of active plant extracts known to boost collagen & elastin production is applied to the face, neck, and chest.

   4. Firming & Sculpting
   Intense manual manipulation of the underlying tissues, muscles, and pressure points.

   5. Protection
   Anti-Inflammation
   The skin is calmed and cooled with the use of cold marble.
   Protection of the Skin's Barrier
   

   All products and methods are aimed at maintaining a healthy hydrolipidic film, which supports a beneficial environment for the skin's microbiome.

   Immune Boosting Tips from Alexandra Soveral
   
   Some simple steps from Alexandra to ensure your healthiest immune system at home…
    

   AIR
   Air your home and office. Open a window and allow fresh air in every room for at least a couple of hours every day.

   HUMIDITY
   Get a humidity meter, don’t allow humidity to go lower that 45%. Ideally humidity should be around 50% to 60% for good respiratory health and good skin. 

   PURIFY
   Diffuse essential oils in your home. Any diffuser will do, from the fancy electrical ones to the simple tea light ones to which add the drops to the water. This is a great way to purify the air and breathing in essential oils with natural anti-viral and anti-microbial properties.

   STEAM INHALATION
   Practice the traditional inhalation steams to purify and strengthen the respiratory system.  Add 3 drops of eucalyptus essential oil to a hot bawl of water.  Place a towel over your head and breathe in the aromatic steam. Be cautious of the steam being too hot, it should feel pleasant. If it feels like the steam is too hot on the face or as you inhale, wait until the temperature goes down.

   BATHS
   Add a cup of sea salt (or Epsom salts) to bath water. Then add up to 8 drops of essential oil diluted in either a gentle soap or fat, such as oil, full fat cream or full fat milk. Soak for 15 to 20 minutes.

   BODY OILS
   After showering, whilst skin is still wet, massage a body oil that has beneficial essential oils in it. You can make your own, lots of recipes in Alexandra’s book Perfect Skin, or you may purchase one already made from our website.

   NASAL OIL
   In any vegetable oil, dilute a drop of essential oil such as eucalyptus, rosemary or tea tree. Apply inside each nostril in the morning.

   The best essential oils with anti-viral, anti-microbial and immune boosting properties are:
   Cinnamon
   Oregano
   Eucalyptus
   Lemongrass
   Tea tree
   Rosemary
   Thyme
   Cardamom
   All citrus oils
