Beauty, Body Care, Treatments
What kick starts your diet or healthy eating regime? For most people it’s an event, a wedding, special birthday or they’ve seen a photograph of themselves and thought surely that can’t be me I’m never that size or shape. For me, it was a Mini Me.
I had attended a press event where you were invited into a tent with 360° cameras to record every part of your body, thankfully fully dressed. These images would then be used to produce a 3D printed mini version of you. Amazing technology and of course a treat to experience it first-hand but I was unprepared; I didn’t have the opportunity to think about what to wear, how to stand or consider how others really see me.
As we know the camera never lies, especially a 360° one. When my Mini Me arrived I was shocked, not so much at my size and proportions, but at my shape. I looked out of shape, rotund, drab and my all-black ensemble didn’t look smart as I had hoped, it looked lifeless and dull.
It was the jolt I needed to take myself in hand and stop using my (now repaired) broken ankle as an excuse not to exercise. I started running again, counted the calories with the help of My Fitness Pal and vowed to wear more flattering clothes. Over the following weeks I lost some weight and started to look more toned, my body was looking in better shape but there was definitely still room for improvement. I spend a lot of time caring for my face and very little caring for my body; it was time for some TLC.
Thankfully an invitation arrived for me to experience a Katherine Daniels body treatment. You may remember that I had one of their facials last year (read about it here) so I knew that the treatment was likely to be effective.
Katherine Daniels was created by two women who have a wealth of experience treating skin, they really do know what works and they put this experience and passion into creating highly effective products and treatments that give immediate and long term benefits.
Education and information is at the heart of Katherine Daniels, they have their own training school and Donna Tait, one of the founders, travels the country ensuring that the therapists who carry out their treatments are fully qualified and well trained.
The Katherine Daniels Firming Resculpting Body Treatment is the ultimate hour long treatment that you need to get immediate inch loss and much smoother, firmer skin.
After completing a consultation card, I stripped down to my underwear, Donna took my measurements, waist, abdomen, hip, upper and mid-thigh and above the knee. This isn’t anywhere near as embarrassing as it sounds, Donna works exactly as you would expect anyone in the medical profession to, she’s quick and as we were chatting I barely noticed what was happening.
The treatment starts with exfoliation and then a self-heating gel is applied to target the fat cells, this is massaged in using the Katherine Daniels Manual Colonic Irrigation Massage technique which gently encourages your digestive system to excrete any unwanted waste matter after the treatment.
Once your fat cells have been stimulated by the warmth and massage, they are then targeted with an algae rubberised mask, this is painted onto the skin and as it cools it sets, it’s this action which helps to detoxify. Donna worked on massaging my arms, hands and feet while the mask sets so I wasn’t really aware of how cold the mask gets. When the mask is removed Katherine Daniels Slimming Contouring Cream is applied to continue breaking down the fat molecules.
After you have been warmed, cooled and massaged, the natural detox process starts and you immediately notice a difference in the size of your waist, abdomen and thighs. In total I lost 9.3 inches with an inch disappearing from my waist, hips and thighs. Just seeing yourself looking slightly thinner and more toned definitely gives you the incentive to keep up the good work, feeling the softness of your skin makes you also want to try harder to keep it feeling that way every day.
Following the treatment I was given three of Katherine Daniels most effective body products to continue treating my skin at home. I have been using the Gentle Oil and Salt Exfoliator, the Firming Hydrating Cream and the Slimming Contouring Cream and my skin looks and feels noticeably different. I haven’t measured myself so I’m not sure if the inch loss has remained or slowly crept back, what I do know is that this treatment is the perfect way to look and feel good, especially if you have an event to go to or a holiday where you want to look your best.
The Katherine Daniels Firming Resculpting Body Treatment can be booked as a one off treatment or as part of the Drop a Dress Size Plan, which is carried out over a month to help you achieve ultimate results and inch loss of up to a dress size. If you are starting out on a diet, book the Diet Kick Start Plan which aims to help the effects of a healthy eating regime and will give you support for those first few critical weeks.
The Katherine Daniels Firming Resculpting Body Treatment is available in salons throughout the country with prices starting from just £50, check the Katherine Daniels website for more details.
The Gentle Oil and Salt Exfoliator, Slimming Contouring Cream and Firming Hydrating Cream are all available from the Katherine Daniels website.
