Mei Zen

  - as seen in the
New York Times

Mei Zen means "beautiful person". The Mei Zen technique, as seen in the NY Times, is a series of cosmetic acupuncture treatments the can rejuvenate your face by softening lines and deep creases by stimulating acupuncture points on the face, and bringing both blood and Qi to the area.

 

This, along with a body balancing treatment at each session, not only brings and sustains a healthy youthful glow to your face, but an over all balancing of the body can have a positive effect on stress, digestion, and insomnia.

At For Yourself Holistic Rejuvenation Center, Marianne can offer you this technique that promises a natural, non invasive procedure that can take years off your face. That, along with dietary recommendations suited especially for you can bring your natural beauty to the outside, as well as the inside.

The non-surgical Mei Zen cosmetic acupuncture procedure is a holistic, natural and comprehensive skin rejuvenation program designed to restore, rejuvenate and relax. Drawn from the ancient texts of Chinese medicine, the Mei Zen cosmetic acupuncture is a relatively painless and natural technique. Small, less than hair-width acupuncture needles are placed in a precise configuration just under the skin's surface to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin. It is an excellent natural alternative to a cosmetic surgery face lift and botox treatments.

The results of cosmetic acupuncture anti-aging treatments reflect not only a change in external appearance, but also an improvement in total body wellness. Specifically, you may notice:

- More radiant, beautiful skin

- Disappearance of fine lines

- Smoothing of deep lines

- Fading of age spots

- More toned muscles

- Enhanced overall appearance and health

Additionally, there are positive side effects to the facial cosmetic acupuncture procedures that include

- a clearing of acne and rosacea

- reduced depression and less anxiety

- better digestion and sleep cycles

- fewer hot flashes and night sweats

A typical protocol begins with a consultation to determine your overall health, and if you qualify for the procedure. This consultation runs 15-30 minutes and is free of charge. This can be conducted over the phone.

If you qualify for treatment, then a 1 1/2 hour session is scheduled to include a complete evaluation, diagnosis and overall body balancing treatment. We then schedule a course of treatments that run two times per week for five weeks. During this time, herbs and foods will be prescribed that are specifically tailored for your overall health and your stated goals for facial rejuvenation.
