HOME REMEDIES FOR ACHY, BREAKY NECKS AND SHOULDERS

Whether it's hours spent sitting at your desk, a poor remote working set-up, looking down at your phone or a long weekend of Netflix & Chilling, too much screen time can put additional strain on our backs and necks. Here are a few of No.11 Massage Therapist Mandy Di Riso’s favourite home remedies to help soothe sore shoulders and nagging necks.

THE BEST AT-HOME PRODUCTS WITH NO.11 SPA-LIKE RESULTS, ACCORDING TO OUR NO.11 GALS

From signature massages to bespoke facials, No.11 Spa treatments are the ultimate in self-care. But as much as we’d like to have spa days on the regular, we know that it’s sometimes hard to pencil them into a busy schedule. Whether you’re working remotely or just don’t feel like leaving the house, these are the go-to clean skincare products that our therapists turn to when they’re short on time but want to take care of their skin from home—and essentially bring our spa experience to you! 

THE DAY THAT INDIE LEE CAME FOR TEA (AND COCKTAILS)

It’s not every day you meet your skincare hero in real life. Here’s what we learned the day we met Indie Lee.

Queen of clean beauty, Indie Lee, visited No.11 Spa for an exclusive skincare masterclass for No.11 Friends, where we enjoyed tasting plates from Mise en Place pink bubbles from Premier Crew and followed Indie’s step-by-step guide for the best DIY facial as we listened to her amazing life story.

DIY PLANTAIN BRIGHTENING POLISH

Ever double tapped a gorgeous DIY body scrub photo but wondered "how do I actually make that?" Facial extraordinaire and №11expert esthetician, Jill Palmer, has put together a delicious all-natural body polish recipe that is good enough to eat (with zero cooking required). 

DIY FACIAL CUPPING

We're firm believers that looking after your skin shouldn't just be reserved for the spa. Facial cupping, an ancient form of alternative healing based in traditional Chinese medicine, helps to remove toxins from the body and stimulates the flow of fresh blood, lymph, and Qi throughout. It also works wonders on helping rid symptoms of the flu, colds, coughs, back and muscle pain - and can be easily practiced at home with a few simple tools.
