Skin shield on

The more we learn about the importance of everyday sun protection, the more wonderful products are being created to keep our precious skin shielded from harmful rays.

It is recommended you wear face sunscreen every day, even the gloomy ones or days you are mostly indoors. Why? Because even behind the clouds and through glass windows, harmful sun rays can still be causing damage to your skin.

While sun exposure is a known cause of skin cancer, it is a cause for a multitude of other things, including pigmentation, premature aging, and discoloration.

Sun protection products have come a long way since the classic thick and oily sunscreen the family would take to the beach, lathering the white paint all over.

Now brands are formulating face sunscreen into lightweight creams, mists, and serums that can be worn under makeup, and without that classic ‘sunscreen smell’ we all remember. Some products are best suited to di erent skin types, so you don’t need to undo your hardworking skincare routine to add that layer of muchneeded protection. Broad-spectrum, which protects against UVA and UVB rays SPF 30 or higher, especially if you are outdoors Water-resistance if you will be exercising or swimming

The best sunscreen is the one you are going to use every day. However here are a few important things to look out for:

Facial like no other

Global lockdowns introduced us to Zoom, the essential tool for face-to-face connection, but alongside its benefi ts came an increasing awareness of our physical appearance onscreen.

This spiked an increasing interest in beauty treatments, but beauty treatments that were non-invasive, less painful and more natural.

Beauty company Environ got on board and developed the facial Focus On Filler. This sensational facial, which is described as a “facial like no other”, is available at beauty salon All About You.

Focus On Filler is a 30-minute treatment that addresses the appearances of lines, wrinkles, skin laxity and loss of facial volume.

Dr Des Fernandes, Founder and Scientifi c Director of Environ, says that with the aging process, skin loses fat in the dermis as well as hyaluronic acid. “What many people need is to improve the cushion of fat in the skin and boost the hyaluronic acid status to make it look like the skin has been re-infl ated.”

Focus On Filler can be undertaken on its own or added to an Environ Essential Facial with Electro-Sonic DF Technology, which di uses up to 40 times more of the active ingredients to the skin.

Building stronger, Dynamic Spines

Whether back pain strikes after a sports game where you took one for the team, whether it has crept up on you with the passing years, or whether you simply reached for the can opener in your own kitchen and something went pop, you’ll know that back pain is debilitating - casting a cloud over every aspect of daily life.

The team of physiotherapists at Muscle People can help by working with you to create the core strength that is the foundation of fi tness without injury, and a pain-free back.

To strengthen the core, which in turn supports the strength and healing of the spine, the team has developed a programme of therapeutic exercise called Dynamic Spines. Neck, upper and lower back pain as well as core and postural weaknesses are all addressed within the programme.

The length of the programme is bespoke to you, specifi cally tailored to ensure that you reach your back health goals. Before enrolling you will be assessed by one of the physiotherapists to ensure that the classes are going to be the best approach for your issues.

Limited numbers mean you receive higher oneon-one attention from the physiotherapist instructors within each class as you work to your individual diagnosis and ability, but you also get to share the challenges and fun within a group setting.

As well as the medical and wellbeing benefi ts, there is an enjoyable social aspect to Dynamic Spines.

Classes can include pilatesfocused exercises and working out on the Oov – a fun, odd looking piece of equipment that activates core stabilising muscles while gently extending the spine.

You’ll also receive exercises to do at home. Because the courses are designed and instructed by physiotherapists, they are available as treatment through the ACC system.

Muscle People receive referrals from back specialists where core strengthening is required, and for post-operative rehabilitation as well as private clients who want to address pain, mobility and reverse a gradual decline in core strength.

The classes are available at Muscle People’s three clinics in the city, at Bishopdale and at Wigram Skies, and they also run at di erent times throughout the day so there is a location and time to suit.

To fi nd out more about Dynamic Spines or for everything else physio, call Muscle People on 0800 027 194 or visit the website.
