Just Another Monday At College...

It's Monday today that means I have spa for the first part of the day and then in the afternoon go up stairs for Diathermy and Microdermabrasion.  For the past 2 weeks our spa teacher has been on holiday to Vietnam But she was back today so we got to do some practical.
Today we worked on the Indian head massage, It wasn't too bad. From what I saw from it I thought you just pulled the hair and I didn't want to be the client for that. Yes there was a part somewhat where we "pulled" the hair but it was more we closed our hands gently and what ever pulling came from that was it, which wasn't much as all unless they were doing it very rough. The treatment itself is very relaxing and stimulating at the same time


In the afternoon we started Diathermy and that is very scary for a beginner. Most of the class couldn't do it, not even able to look at the demonstration. What happens is a therapist uses a needle and puts it into lets say for example a broken capillary and reduces the appearance of it. of course that's very brief and not detailed at all but If you want to learn more and like the before and after photo on the left, I suggest you google it or ask questions at a spa/salon that does Diathermy Treatments BUT be warned that this treatment does have a burning sensation.
