PURE NATURAL PASSION Fliss Austin is passionate about all areas of health and wellbeing. Her Naturopathic approach looks at each client’s case as a whole, rather than an isolated condition or set of symptoms. “ I ’m also very passionate about specialised treatments for menstrual and menopausal problems, digestive health, skin conditions, mental health, thyroid health and adrenal fatigue,” Fliss says. Fliss also offers natural skincare and luxury, restorative facials in a relaxing atmosphere. As a facialist she offers an impressive range of skincare solutions to help with all types of common problems. With so many harsh products and techniques on the market, Fliss wanted to offer her clients a truly magical experience, that not only nourished the skin, but also allowed clients to deeply relax with a rejuvenating facial. “When the skin is not looking or feeling its best, or is showing unwanted conditions such as acne, eczema, dermatitis, dryness, dehydration or dullness it’s a signal that something is not in unison within the body,” Fliss says. With a total skin wellness session, the complete picture of health is taken into account alongside the facial treatment that utilises skin-loving natural products from the renowned; Waterlily range. “When combining treatments for both inner-health and outer-health, the results in treating complexion concerns are simply breathtaking,” she says. “The Waterlily Artisan skincare range is one of the best natural products I have found on the market and I’m seeing wonderful results for my clients and the conditions of their skin.” N E W P R EM IS ES Fliss has recently moved to new premises to offer her clients a genuinely peaceful and private encounter during all sessions. “It’s important to offer clients a very personal and private experience,” Fliss says. “Moving to a more secluded position in Rarangi has allowed me to offer a very peaceful and nurturing environment for my sessions.” Situated in the stunning Rarangi, the distant sounds of rolling waves and the chatter of birds with no interruption, brings an element of nature into her treatments. The private rooms are simply breath-taking, with a warm and inviting surround. “It was really important that clients felt at home, and at rest when they came into this space,” Fliss says. “Relaxation starts when you are able to really let go, and this environment really allows my clients to feel nurtured and relaxed.” S P R IN G IN TO S PRING With Spring just around the corner Fliss has some top tips to keep you feeling your best… • Enjoy the sunshine – vitamin D is well known for being the ‘feel good’ vitamin. • Take the time to appreciate your surroundings. • Make a promise that you will no longer feel guilty for taking some time to relax. • Take care of your mental health – quieten your mind and live in the now. • Kick all those bad habits and replace them with the ones your body will love. • Look after your skin – consider a new skin ritual and rejuvenate your skin, inside and out.
