10 minutes dry skin brushing every morning is equivalent to a 30-minute jog. Who wouldn’t use a brush?!
There is no moisturiser, oil, body wash, loofah, flannel or shower that can stimulate, clean and soften the skin like a brush.
Our skin, or connective tissue, is the largest organ in the body. It records our internal health. When signs appear - dry, bruised, pimples, rash - the skin is trying to alert us to the state of our overall wellness. It is definitely worth knowing that our blood is as clean as our skin.
Every 24 hours dead skin cells raise to the surface. After removing the dry outer layer, new cells are stimulated to create excellent collagen; a protein substance in the skin that allows greater elasticity and resilience.
Dry skin brushing consistently familiarises us with the odour eliminated from the skin too. Released as waste are uric acid crystals, catarrh and lactic acid, and overloaded hormone residue.
If measured, we would be amazed to learn it's around 1kg of toxic waste.
Body brushing can immediately help improve an underactive thyroid, skin circulation and cellulite.
Your brush needs to be a high quality, dry vegetable bristle brush made from Sisal, Hemp or Cactus.
