The ECHO2 Oxygen System is a revolutionary treatment for extremely sensitive and challenged skin. Pure oxygen is used to hydrate the skin, reduce inflammation, and revitalize skin cells. This system offers both corrective and preventative skin care. It is especially effective at reducing the effects of aging caused by sun exposure, free radical damage or to heal sensitive and inflamed skin. The Echo2 is also used post-surgically to reduce recovery time. During an ECHO2 treatment, oxygen (along with vitamins, amino acids and minerals) is propelled onto the skin to nourish and revitalize the skin cells. Increased hydration results in a dramatic reduction of inflammation, swelling and discomfort

Microdermabrasion
This safe, non-surgical treatment gently removes dead, flaking skin and stimulates the production of new skin cells. After a series of treatments, most people notice that their skin tone is more uniform, hyper-pigmentation is reduced, wrinkles are refined, and scars and large pores are minimized. Some types of acne also respond well to regular Microdermabrasion treatments. In a Microdermabrasion treatment, the aesthetician uses a delicate hand-held instrument to polish the skin with micro-crystals creating a gentle abrasion of the skin. Two to twelve weekly sessions are usually needed to achieve the desired results, though improved appearance of the skin is often noticed immediately. Microdermabrasion is often combined with an appropriate finishing treatment such as Echo2 Oxygen or a Deep Pore Cleansing Facial

To make the bath, brew the herbal tea and cool before running a bath.

Herbs
Use one or any combination of Calendula flowers, Plantain leaves, Oat straw or whole rolled oats, Peppermint or Green tea (loose or in bags, 1 teabag is about 1 teaspoon of herb)

1 or 2 drops of lavender essential oil diluted into a small amount of whole milk or cream

If you find you only have some of the above ingredients
go ahead and make the bath using whatever you have on hand, it will still be very soothing to the skin. Or contact Take Care for help finding them!
