My Review
Thanks to 医轩/Refresh Town for this Abdominal Massage and Facial Treatment review.

Its really a different experience for me to have the massage and facial treatment done in a HDB flat shop rather than shops in shopping center. Yes, its located at HDB flat, not shop house or shop located at the void deck of your HDB. The first thing that comes to my mind is "huh!" But given the information of the products they are using on my massage and facial, I decided to go ahead. 

The place is located at the second floor of Block 506, Jurong West St 52. The block is a five story HDB, with lots of shops on the first floor. There isn't any floor to level 2 using the lift. I need to climb up the stairs just located at the lift. The place is just the first flat unit from the right. There is a banner saying Refresh Town and 医轩 right at the door steps. 

How the outside of the place look like.

Upon stepping in, my first impression is doesn't look like a flat to me. It look just like any ordinary massage shop or facial shop, but with a little homey feel.

Abdominal Massage using Meditrina
My day starts with first doing the abdominal massage. Before beginning the massage, I was introduce to the products that are used for the massage and its benefits by Bobo. Its namely Meditrina Moxa Pain Relief Essence and Meditrina Ageless Herbal Cream With Chasteberry Extract.

Then the massage begin after changing. First, moxa pain relief essence is apply on me. This is to open up the acupoints so that my body can better absorb the herbal cream during massage later.

Then the massaging begin. Every time, a new bottle of Ageless Herbal Cream will use for the massage and the remaining of the cream after the massage is yours to bring home to use. That's great to know that I am always using fresh new cream and not remaining cream from earlier massage from don't know who. :)

The massage takes 1 hour and massage is done according to acupoints. The massage process to me is painful. But when the massage is done, I felt really relax and relieve. :D

After everything is done a mask is place at my abdominal. This mask feels warm and I removed it only the next day.

And after doing the massage, I really have a very good night sleep. And I wake up the next day feeling so energise, without tired or sleepy feeling. :D

Oh oh, lets not forget, this is what remains of the cream after massaging. So people with size similar to me, this is what you bring home after the massage.

Facial Treatment using Babor
Ok, lets talk about the facial I have done. After the massage, I transferred to the facial bed and start my facial treatment. 

The Beautician, Jo, first cleanse my face to remove off makeups and dirt.

My face was then steam for a while followed by some eye brown trimming.

If you still remember some of my reviews previously, I did mention that my face started off with acne problems around my T-zone. Now it has turn to combination skin, with some oily and sensitive. Therefore, I was recommended the $186 purifying hydration facial with eye treatment. 

Jo then did traditional hand extraction on my problematic face. Having don't both machine extraction and hand extraction, I must say that I still prefer hand extraction. Although its not as comfortable as machine extraction, hand extraction can better and cleanly removed all the dirt and blackheads.

Then this red light machine is used on my face. It helps to remove the bacteria and reduce the redness and swollen areas.

With that, the purifying mask is done on my face. As my face is having acne problem, seaweed mask is done on my face.

Sadly, because of my face condition, I am not able to do massage on my face, which is included in the treatment. (Massge is not recommended for oily, acne, pimple skin.) So for me, massage step was skip and replace with soothing gel. :( 

As my treatment includes eye, eye mask then collagen hydration mask is place on my face. Then, the best part, clock ticks and time for me to Zzzz while the mask is on my face. :)

And what is the 2 lump of cream doing on top of my eye? Well they are not vanilla cream found on cakes. They are just hot eye mask. :) While looking at the master piece by Jo on my face now, it really do look like cakes. /wahaha

And finally, did not really time how long, its time to remove the "Cake" on my face. When its removed, I go "wow". I feel so refreshing and clean and my skin feel so hydrated and bouncy. :)

And of course, it ended by some application of Babor face products.
