The luxurious treatment, pioneered by Elisabeth Sigmund in the 1960s, embodies her philosophy as a nurse and cosmetologist. Sigmund’s profound understanding of the skin as a living organ led her to develop a treatment that honors this principle. This approach focuses on supporting the skin’s natural functions rather than working against them. The experience is characterized by tranquility, minimal movement, absence of music, and undivided attention. Using only hands, two brushes, Dr. Hauschka products, water, and compresses, this treatment follows a precise protocol adhered to by all Dr. Hauschka estheticians globally.

Each session commences with a foot bath and a thorough consultation. The treatment involves deep cleansing and facial care utilizing masks, conditioners, and oils, all tailored to this distinctive approach that incorporates rhythm, rest, movement, heat, and cold. Central to its effectiveness is the lymphatic stimulation performed with gentle brushes, stimulating the removal of metabolic waste and excess tissue fluid. This stimulation facilitates the unblocking of capillaries and activates the tissue’s self-cleansing mechanism, making this treatment exceptionally beneficial.
