I heard about an "acupuncture face lift" from a hair stylist when I first moved to town. She told me all about it and said it was her present to herself when she turned 50 years old. I filed that away in my brain as a neat thing to look into, to share with my clients, possibly do for myself someday!
Well, this fall I found Dr. Barbara Blunt who has just recently added cosmetic acupuncture to her services at her Longmont Healing Arts clinic. Ladies and gentleman, having never received acupuncture before, I quickly had about 85 needles in my face!!! Barbara makes her sessions as blissful as a trip to the spa. Massage to begin, needles to balance the whole body, then needles in the face, rest for 20 minutes (nap time) and then more delightful massage on the head, chest, arms and feet when the needles are out. The protocol for the treatment is 1 1/2 hrs twice a week for 5 consecutive weeks. During the treatment, the sense of balance and steadiness I felt, superseded the notion that I would grow old gracefully with her work. After the 10 sessions, my face feels smoother, tighter and actually "lifted" around the eyes and forehead (my 20 something crows feet and forehead worry lines!!)
Please contact Dr. Barbara Blunt at the Healing Arts Clinic for much more information!
