Esthetics

Preventative and restorative treatments for your skin, including hand and foot care, make a tremendous impact on how you move through the aging process and feel about yourself along the way.

In addition to treating visible concerns, our student practitioners can assess and advise on elements across a broad spectrum of wellbeing, including the connections between diet, exercise, stress and the health of your skin.

FACIALS

Facials can delay the signs of aging by increasing collagen production and improving skin elasticity, tone and texture. Facials can open up your pores to eliminate blackheads and allow your skin to absorb essential product nutrients while stimulating blood circulation and lymphatic drainage during the facial massage to increase oxygen to the skin, promoting an overall feeling of wellness. Regular facial massage can improve your skin's firmness producing a more radiant appearance

All classic facials at the DC Spa use Moor Spa skincare, with 100 per cent naturally sourced ingredients that are cruelty-free with CertClean certification in Canada.

Our esthetician students will conduct a consultation to determine your skin type and recommend the classic facial best suited to your skin needs.
