A CREWE health care company says it is benefiting from a growing awareness of self-care in the pandemic.

Embody, a new division of ctchealthcare physiotherapy clinic on Crewe Business Park, is offering cosmetic acupuncture and LED light therapy to clients to help them combat the signs of ageing.

Treatments are up and running after the easing of restrictions and already proving popular with people who want to turn back the hands of time without harsh chemicals and invasive procedure.

Embody Director Emily Carter said: "The skin is a person's largest organ and often the initial indicator of someone's overall health. To treat our patients fully we need to also treat their skin as well as their body..

"We are on a mission to put the care back into skincare."

Cosmetic acupuncture has been hailed as the new Botox. The procedure involves tiny needles strategically placed to help erase fine lines and wrinkles by boosting the body's natural collagen production - it also helps to brighten dull skin and combat acne scarring.

LED light Therapy works in a similar way to cosmetic acupuncture as it promotes blood flow and cellular healing. Other benefits include reduced pigmentation and appearance of fine lines as well as a brighter, more even complexion.

Mother-of-three Emily, whose husband Rick is the firm's lead physio, added: "We have found since the pandemic more people understand the importance of self-care and are ready to explore alternative treatments like cosmetic acupuncture which treats specific areas of concern and requires no down-time.

"Feeling confident about appearance supports mental health which is what we are all about, making people feel better from the inside out."

The firm stocks cruelty-free REN skin products, while Ctchealthcare Nantwich is also welcoming a dermatology specialist for clinics twice a month from June for clients with skin concerns such as allergies, dermatology, dermoscopy, cutaneous drug reactions and skin cancer.
