5.0 out of 5 stars Makes learning the Science of Beauty Therapy thoroughly enjoyable!, 14 Sep 2008
As a lecturer of Beauty Therapy; one of the questions students almost always ask me is: `Why do we have to learn about science and anatomy and physiology?' This book answers that question; and makes learning the Science of Beauty Therapy pleasurable. After reading this book students will understand the importance of understanding how the body works in relation to understanding their clients; and creating the best treatment plans for their clients. This book offers the scientific essential underpinning knowledge useful for every Beauty Therapist! I cannot understate how important this knowledge is in providing a solid foundation for practical Beauty Therapy Treatments. This book will I am sure become a classical reference for all Beauty Therapy courses. Highly recommended!
