Different wavelengths of the light spectrum (blue, green, red, infrared, yellow) penetrate the skin at different depths and may affect biochemical processes in tissue thereby altering cellular function.
Light emitting diode (LED) is technology originally harnessed by NASA to encourage growth of plants in space. In a cosmetic sense the technology has been associated with wound healing, reducing inflammation, inducing collagen production and manipulating the activity of bacteria.
BLUE - light may reduce the activity of the sebaceous glands and is also absorbed by P acnes bacteria. Blue light may help in the treatment of acne and help to expedite healing of third degree burns. It is also mentally relaxing and is thought to connect us to holistic thought and gives wisdom and clarity to enhance communication and speech. Soothing blue light brings calm and peace to a mind that is worried, excited or in a consistently nervous state.
RED - light is thought to stimulate fibroblasts (cells that produce collagen), increase haemoglobin, promote cellular growth and improve circulation. It may therefore increase healing, and hydration to ameliorate ageing while also reducing inflammation and treating inflammatory skin conditions (eczema, psoriasis, rosacea and dermatitis). As the 'great energiser' red light has also been linked to hair growth promoting benefits, potentially by improving the health of tissue and aiding blood flow and may also help to stimulate metabolism while improving pain and promoting muscle recovery.
ORANGE - light is said to have a liberating action upon the mind and ameliorate repression. As a combination of red and yellow light it combines physical energy with mental clarity inducing a transformation between lower physical reactions and higher mental responses. Orange light help to assimilate new ideas and is an emotional stimulant that may help to remove inhibitions and promote independent social behaviour. Orange light brings joy and increases the thirst for life while potentially helping to reduce inflammation.
PURPLE - light is believed to provide nourishment to the cells in the upper brain, purifying thoughts and feelings. Violet energy connects us to our spiritual self guidance, wisdom and inner strength to fortify artistic strength and creativity while also assisting with diseases of the scalp, neurosis and cramps.
YELLOW - light is known to induce collagenesis and awaken mental inspiration. By fuelling the solar plexus yellow light can alleviate nerve-related conditions and gut disorders. Yellow light has an alkalising effects which strengthens nerves within the cerebrum to inspire, awaken and stimulate the mind, as well as increase awareness, clarity and understanding.
GREEN - light is the universal healer and may help to reduce the activity of melanocytes (pigment producing cells) thereby reducing the appearance of brown spots/freckles. It may also promote release of serotonin with positive effects on depression, hunger and appetite. In addition to positively influencing weight, green light cleanses and balances energy to give a feeling of renewal, peace and harmony.
INFRARED - light works similarly to red light, though is proposed to have the ability to penetrate deeper into tissue and influence lymphatic drainage. Thought to stimulate energy production in cells, IR may expedite recovery from swelling, bruising and inflammation.
LED is a treatment option, that is suitable for all skin types and most skin conditions. There is no preparation involved and rarely any downtime.
The use of high frequency-charged glass rods that are languished over the skin and body. May help with skin detoxification and tightening, increasing circulation, improved cell health, inflammation, pain relief and hair growth.

Chemical peeling is application of varying concentrations and types of acids to the skin. This may help to remove the superficial layers, and force skin to regenerate while deeper peels may also help to stimulate collagen. Chemical peeling is suitable for treating a number of skin conditions, with efficacy dependent on the depth, peel solution used and frequency of peeling.
- ACNE
- SUN DAMAGE + PIGMENTATION | MELASMA

Dry brushing is an ancient Ayurvedic technique in which a coarse bristled brush made of natural fibres is swept over the body. It is believed to have many health benefits including lymphatic and circulatory stimulation, exfoliation, detoxification and energisation. Dry brushing may also help to improve the appearance of cellulite by mechanically disrupting fibrous adhesions and reducing fluid retention.
At Solace dry brushing may be incorporated into our body and sauna experiences. During our in-hours sauna visits a dry brush is supplied as a purchasable inclusion to one of our sauna sessions. Alternatively, dry brushes may be purchased for home and personal use in-haus.

At Solace our sauna is able to be booked for the practice of yoga, where one is free to undertake their own mindfulness practice or be guided through sadhanas using the provided ipad during normal business hours.
Yoga is a spiritual discipline which focuses on bringing harmony to the mind and body. Derived from the Saskrit root 'Yuj' meaning "to unite", the practice of yoga aims to unite individual and universal consciousness, forging man and nature together as one. Thus yoga is a therapy of self-realisation and freedom wherein suffering is overcome leading to a state of liberation ('moshka'). In contemporary yoga preservation, maintenance and promotion of health are encouraged. This may be through just the deep breathing and mindfulness of yoga teaching, adopting an asana, or physically moving through poses in a form of exercise.

The scalp is initially visualised under dermoscopy where residue, scalp health, hair and sebum are assessed. A tailored treatment of products are used to cleanse and reinvigorate the hair and scalp under steam which opens follicles and soften debris. Massage is incorporated to stimulate blood flow, ease head tension and encourage hair growth.

TO-SHIN-YOKU | HEAD SPA
The incorporation of oxygen into our facials and hair treatments may help to increase delivery of oxygen to stressed cells, potentially reducing inflammation and increasing the health of tissue.
Oxygen is an essential element for cell survival. It is transported around our body bound to haemoglobin in red blood cells. When oxygen delivery to tissues is starved, alternative sources of cellular respiration occur which produce acidic by-products. When allowed to accumulate these metabolites gradually lead to cellular dysfunction and death.
