Kristina Koestler | Natural Alternative to Botox Facial Acupuncture London

Kristina Koestler (MAcS CA)

I'm a qualified Facial Acupuncturist and Facialist. I specialise in Cosmetic acupuncture and Facial rejuvenation for natural anti-ageing, and am a registered member of the Acupuncture Society, CHNC and BABTAC.

In 2009, after many years developing award-winning products within the Health & Beauty industry, I decided to follow my passion for skincare and Traditional Chinese Medicine, in particular facial acupuncture.

My passion began at an early age and was inspired by my own journey with eczema both as a teenager and young adult. As a result, I was always interested in skin science and holistic methods to nurture my skin back to health .

I was lucky enough to study acupuncture under some of the world's leading experts in Facial Rejuvenation.

Today through my Acu-facial therapy™, I combine my specialist 'insider' skincare knowledge with a holistic approach to beauty and wellbeing, encouraging your skin, mind and body to relax, restore, rejuvenate and renew.

I look forward to meeting you, and helping you to rediscover your natural radiance.

🌿✨ Myth-Busting Fear of Needles: Facial acupuncture, rooted in traditional Chinese medicine, works wonders for skin health and overall well-being by delicately inserting ultra-fine, single-use needles into specific points on the face and body. Yet needle fear can hold some back! 🚫 Myth: Acupuncture needles are the same as injection needles. ✔️ Reality: Acupuncture needles are much thinner and designed for smooth insertion, minimising discomfort. 🚫 Myth: Acupuncture is painful. ✔️ Reality: Surprisingly comfortable and relaxing for most, often accompanied by sensations like tingling or warmth during treatments. 🚫 Myth: Acupuncture needles can cause infection. ✔️ Reality: Acupuncturists prioritise hygiene with sterile, single-use needles and strict protocols, significantly reducing infection risks. 🚫 Myth: Acupuncture needles lead to bruising or bleeding. ✔️ Reality: Occasional minor bruising or bleeding is rare, especially in facial acupuncture with superficial needle insertion. Fear of needles shouldn’t prevent you from exploring facial acupuncture. Discuss any concerns with a qualified acupuncturist to ensure a comfortable treatment experience.💫 👉If you would like to find out more about facial acupuncture please head to link in bio 👆 #kristinakoestler #acufacialtherapy #facialacupuncture #cosmeticacupuncture #skinhealth #skincareroutine #londonacupuncture #fearofneedles #wellnessjourney

🌟What is a Gua Sha Facial ? 💫 Facial Gua Sha is a traditional Chinese technique that involves gentle scraping motions using a smooth-edged tool, typically made of jade or rose quartz. The technique applies light to moderate pressure to the skin to gently massage the face and neck in upward strokes, following specific massage techniques and meridian points to stimulate blood flow, release tension, encourage lymphatic drainage, and promote overall well-being and a radiant complexion.

🌸 Embrace Spring Renewal 🌱 Spring is here, offering a fresh start and an opportunity to prioritise self-care. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), this season corresponds with the Wood element, which governs the liver and gallbladder. Here are some tips to nurture your well-being and support liver health during this vibrant time: 🥦 Nourish with Green & Sour Foods: * Enjoy seasonal greens like spinach, kale, asparagus. * Incorporate citrus fruits such as lemon, lime, or apples. * Add berries and fermented foods to your diet. 🌿 Detoxify with Cleansing Herbs: Discover the benefits of dandelion, artichoke, and milk thistle for liver support. These herbs are perfect for a springtime detox or cleanse. 🧘‍♀️ Engage in Gentle Exercise: Encourage the smooth flow of qi with practices like Yoga, Qi Gong, or Tai Chi. Incorporate gentle movement into your daily routine to support liver health. ✨ Try Foot Acupressure Massage Liver 3 (LV3), also known as Taichong, located on the top of the foot, in the depression between the first and second metatarsal bones. This acupressure point helps balance liver energy. Massage the point for 1-2 minutes in a circular motion on each foot. Embrace the vibrant energy of spring and nourish your body and mind 💫🌿 . . #kristinakoestler #acufacialtherapy #springrenewal #selfcare #tcm #healthyliving #londonacupuncuture #equinox
