Méthode Phytobiodermie
Made in Switzerland
Trained Phytobiodermie professionals will evaluate your skin condition, body shape and even your
Chinese biorhythm to select the products and treatments best suited for you. Treating the whole
you is their goal. Visible skin problems, such as acne, wrinkles, dry skin and cellulite are targeted,
but, reflex zones, meridians, and acupuncture points and chakras are as well. When the natural
flow of energy in your body is out of balance, skin problems result, you feel dragged out and look
older. Phytobiodermie professionals can identify the energetic cause of the esthetic problem, and
help you not only to look better, but to feel better too.
TH E TR EATM ENTS
There are of course facials, massages and soothing baths. Additionally, high tech, specially
designed equipment, is part of the Phytobiodermie program. The award winning treatments given
by these custom designed, proprietary small machines, include therapies such as lymphatic and
energetic drainages and light-therapy.
