Having recently moved to Towcester, I had my first massage with Mel today and i have to say, having had many, many massages over the years, it was absolutely fantastic. It's a great set up and the post massage exercises will hopefully work. Many thanks Mel.

Radio Frequency Energy heats dermal collagen fibres to 45-65°. This causes the fibres to constrict resulting in loose, stretched skin tightening. This also stimulates the production of more collagen to fill the slackness. Skin is firmer, and the appearance of orange peel skin is improved. One area to be worked on in one session. I recommend a course of 6 weekly appts for the best results.
