Here at Quine, we’ve been on the hunt for ways to help us brush off the winter blues and brighten our spirits for spring. Let’s admit it, it has felt like an endless winter season, and we could all do with a boost to put the spring back in our step.
We’ve recently discovered something very special that promises to give both your skin and soul a much-needed boost.
Located in Edinburgh’s New Town, Soma Rituals offers a personal touch that’s tailored just for you. Whether you’re dealing with acne, looking to age gracefully, or simply want to feel more confident, owner Chandra will make sure your experience is exactly what you need.
The background…
As the visionary behind Soma Rituals, Chandra brings a wealth of expertise to the realm of holistic skincare. With a background as a certified Holistic Facialist and Beauty Therapist, Chandra is well-versed in various holistic therapies and facial massage techniques. Her repertoire includes professional gua sha and herbal poultice training, lymphatic and sculptural face lift massage, acupressure and cupping, as well as Acutonics® Tuning Fork Therapy.
Beyond her technical prowess, Chandra’s rituals are imbued with the wisdom of her meditation practice, which has been a steadfast companion for over two decades. This blend of expertise and mindfulness underscores Chandra’s commitment to creating sacred spaces for her clients, where inner calm and self-acceptance flourish through nurturing and healing rituals.
The experience…
Recently, I had the privilege of experiencing the Half Moon Ritual, and I must say, it was nothing short of transformative. From the moment I stepped into Chandra’s serene sanctuary, I knew I was in for a treat. The peaceful ambience instantly melted away my stress, and I felt myself begin to unwind.
The most profound aspect of the experience was the realisation of how much our faces endure on a daily basis. We express joy, frustration, and everything in between, yet rarely do we give our faces the care and attention they truly deserve. Soma Rituals’ facials provide a much-needed reprieve for our hardworking visages, offering them the TLC they crave.
The Half Moon Ritual, priced at £110, is a journey of rejuvenation like no other. Combining ancient healing techniques with modern skincare innovations, this 90-minute facial is designed to bring your skin and soul back into harmony. From Thai herbal poultice massages to customised mask rituals, every element of the treatment is crafted with care to leave you feeling visibly refreshed and deeply restored. I left with a serious glow and felt much more calm and rejuvenated following the treatment.
The products…
Soma Rituals uses high-end, all-natural products by Seed to Skin Tuscany, ensuring that your skin receives only the finest ingredients nature has to offer. With a commitment to sustainability and ethical sourcing, you can indulge in your facial knowing that you’re supporting both your skin and the planet.
The technique…
During the Half Moon Ritual, Chandra employs a variety of techniques to revitalise your skin and elevate your senses. From the gentle hum of tuning forks to the exquisite sensation of luxurious oils being massaged into your skin, each moment is a testament to Soma Rituals’ commitment to holistic wellness.
The ritual includes a thorough cleansing and exfoliation process to rejuvenate the skin, followed by a series of specialised massages to release tension and stimulate circulation. Customised masks and soothing serums complete the experience, leaving you with a radiant complexion and a profound sense of inner calm.
