WHAT IS ONCOLOGY ESTHETICS?

All people with cancer, undergoing treatment or in recovery can benefit from Touch Therapy, however it is important to know the level of therapy required for each individual. Oncology esthetics is a relatively new specialty field of care, perhaps this is the first time you've ever heard of it, but it's becoming more recognized & available due to the many benefits it provides. Already widely available throughout the United States, it is sadly absent in most of Canada. As one of the first certified Oncology Esthetics in Saskatchewan, we are passionate about offering this much needed service to our clients and committed to encouraging more estheticians to acquire this certification.

Oncology Esthetics focuses on the individual who needs a gentle, safe, light touch and approach to skin care treatments that assists in easing the discomfort that your body and skin endures due to cancer therapy. Health challenges, medications, & the side effects of cancer therapy as well as our environment can cause irritation, dryness, and fragility of the skin.

Oncology Esthetics offers individualized treatments to help soothe, hydrate balance and calm the skin. Balanced happy skin, deep relaxation, tension and stress that melts away...a much needed escape at a much needed time during an individual's journey and recovery. If you are newly diagnosed or a cancer survivor, we offer services that will help to relax your mind, body and spirit while maintaining the health and balance of your skin.

Through proper skin care, we can help you look and feel better. It is important to select skin care and personal care products that do not contain synthetic fragrances, harsh ingredients and exfoliation properties, colors or other known reactive ingredients that may instigate reactions.

En Vogue skin specialists are certified in Oncology Esthetics™ to meet the specific skin care needs and challenges of individuals living with cancer. They know how to perform safe skin and beauty treatments for these individuals. When booking your appointment be sure to let booking staff know of your need to see a skin specialist certified in Oncology Esthetics.

You may think a facial is an extravagant expense during cancer treatments. Your skin is especially dry and fragile during chemotherapy and radiation, and your stress levels are up, a facial is just the thing to bring you some much needed skin care, relaxation—and to help promote healing!

5 Ideas for Living Room Windows

You spend a lot of time in your living room (it’s the living room after all). Whether you’re reading, watching television, exercising or enjoying some quiet time, your shades can be customized to complement your lifestyle. Here are 5 ideas for your living room windows, and what each has to offer.

1. Black-out Roller Shades ~ Privacy Please

Dark. Private. Eliminate glare on your television and prevent nosy neighbors from watching you watch Law & Order. If you enjoy an afternoon nap on the weekends (or weekdays - no judgements), blackout shades on your living room windows will keep the light out of your eyes and out of your home.

2. Woven Wood Shades ~ The Natural Element

Introducing natural, earthy elements into your living room decor is an easy way to add texture and interest. Paper-based weaves or bamboo + grass materials make great woven wood shades.

3. Drapery and Solar Shades ~ The Buddy System

Sometimes it takes two to get the most out of your living room windows. Layering window treatments, especially those with different transparencies and functionalities, affords you the ultimate in privacy and light control.

4. Eco-friendly Solar Shades

If you're looking for an eco-friendly shade, this one’s as eco-friendly as it gets! Our Eco-Solar shades are PVC-free, lead-free and 100% recyclable. In addition to an attractive green side, eco-solar shades can protect you and your home from harmful UV rays, reduce blinding glare on your screens and monitors, and protect your sofa and artwork from fading.

5. Designer fabrics ~ The jaw dropper!

Turn a few heads by putting bold, beautiful designs on your living, kitchen and/or dining room windows. If you’re looking to make a statement, consider our designer fabrics. These collections are inspired by, and in some cases directly from, the front lines of fashion. Dress your windows in something pretty, sit back, and enjoy compliments from your guests.

A Trusted Regina Mortgage Associate shares a tip on using home equity to your advantage

11. Apr 2016 shelby Regina Mortgages, TRUSTED TIPS

Wishing you had more money for renovations or another expense? Here is how you can use home equity to your advantage:

Many people find that one of the easiest and most affordable ways to access money is through the equity that they have accumulated in their home. This is a very popular option, especially when you have an excellent first mortgage in place.

Using home equity to your advantage

Canadians purchase homes for a variety of reasons. Some want the stability of owning their own home, while others also look at home ownership as an investment vehicle. No matter what the reason, the truth is that home ownership has proven itself to be a good stable investment over time, and one which many Canadians are profiting from.

While many people have chosen to purchase their first home during these times of lower interest rates, there has also been a large movement to refinance home loans and pull out equity for home improvements, investments, college expenses, and even high interest debt consolidation. Canadians have been borrowing against their home's equity in record numbers, taking out billions of dollars in cash each year.

In years past, many saw their homes as a shelter of safety, yet today, they are more than ever before, willing to borrow against the equity owned in their homes to further their investment portfolios, get out of debt, send their children to university, make improvements to their home, or even boost their RRSP contributions. Where home equity was once sat upon, today it is often used to one's advantage.

While removing equity from your home can be a good idea, you should do so with caution and fully understand the benefits and possible risks. The best thing you can do is to consult a licensed mortgage professional and financial planner to discuss opportunities to make your home's equity work for you.
