This week “CityNews” speaks with Canberra’s beauty specialists who help to make clients look and feel amazing.

BEAUTY isn’t only about looking good, it’s also about feeling good. There’s nothing quite like some self-care to get you feeling beautiful, inside and out. 

This week “CityNews” speaks with a couple of Canberra specialists who help to make clients look and feel amazing.

Redefining silhouettes through beauty special

TOTAL Body Contouring has been established in Canberra for a few years now, but new-owner Christy Christensen only recently took over.

“The community and customer base around the brand appealed to me, as we have so much to offer for the next phase of growth and service offerings,” she says, with 16 years of experience backing her up.

“Total Body Contouring is a place to redefine your silhouette. We help people achieve their goals from reducing cellulite and fatty tissue, assisting with muscle growth, through to facials that reduce acne scars.”

Christy says Total Body Contouring is about building body confidence without surgery.

“We give a personalised experience and journey, everyone is different,” she says.

“First we set up a consultation to make sure you get the right specialisation for your needs and wants.

“With industry certification for all our services, your safety comes first.

“We give full transparency to everyone so there are no hidden extras or inflated prices.”

Christy says as a team, satisfaction comes from the amazing results achieved through the Total Body Contouring services.

“But, most of all, it’s the smile on our clients’ faces when they see the results for themselves,” she says.

“We have a welcome promotion, where people can save $100 with a minimum purchase of $500, and a free Body Glove for a limited time only.”

Every treatment is unique

LUKE Clews says Kingston Natural Therapies has a long-standing reputation spanning almost 40 years, with Luke’s father, Guy, starting the practice in 1984. 

Luke says a lot of their clients come to them when they feel traditional medicine hasn’t worked for them and they’re looking for a different approach. 

“The advantage that complementary medicine offers is the holistic health approach,” he says. 

“Our appointments are up to one hour in length. We take the time to learn about our patient’s entire health and background. 

“Our first question is – how can we help? We sit down and assess diet, lifestyle, digestion, immunity, hormones, nervous system and the overall state of someone’s health. We need to ask why are the symptoms ongoing? Then we can approach it with confidence.

“We identify the roadblocks – what is impacting us? We can provide herbal medicine, vitamins, amino acid therapy, diet and lifestyle and allergy testing.” 

Luke says it is crucial for nutrient levels to be addressed, as a very small percentage of people actually eat the recommended five servings of vegetables each day. Many people are also deficient in zinc and magnesium, the two most widely used minerals in the human body. 

“Everybody is unique and every treatment we provide is unique to the individual,” he says.
