HOW TO DRY BRUSH:
Prep Your Bathroom
Dry brush upon awakening in the morning before showering. Dry brush in the shower, or on a towel, in the bathroom to collect dry skin.
General Rules of Thumb
Apply medium pressure so that you can feel the movement, but not scratch the skin.
You always dry brush towards your heart to help get the lymph moving upward. Once you get above the heart, on the neck, move strokes in a downward motion towards the heart.
Feet and Legs
Begin at the feet with long sweeping motions moving towards the heart. Move along each limb on its own, repeating strokes 2-3 times on both the front and the back of the legs.
Use shorter motions when working around joints like knees and elbows
Stomach
Use light circular, clockwise motions. Repeat 3-4 times at a slow-to-moderate pace.
Arms
Starting with the hands make your way upward toward the shoulders. Repeat strokes 2-3 times on both the front and the backs of the arms.
Neck and Heart
Start at the jaw line and very lightly move toward the chest. Repeat strokes 2-3 times on each side. Complete by drawing light circles around the heart.
Shower and Hydrate
Always take a shower post dry brushing to remove dead skin. Hydrate with body oil to ensure your body is moisturized to replenish the new layer on the surface of the skin.
Care: Be sure to change your dry brush every 4-5 months.
