Medical-Grade HIFU Facelift… For Less Than Half the Typical European Price

• 🇧🇪 Belgium • 🇮🇪 Ireland • 🇳🇱 Netherlands • 🇩🇪 Germany • 🇬🇧 UK — did you know?

In many European countries, a full HIFU facial lifting treatment is commonly priced at €550–€800, often charged by individual areas of the face.

At Costa Med Osteopaths in Orihuela Costa, La Zenia, Spain, the entire face is treated in one complete medical-grade HIFU session — for €200.

Not because the treatment is weaker.
Not because quality is reduced.
But because the medical philosophy is different.

At Costa Med, HIFU is performed by a qualified medical professional with deep knowledge of facial anatomy, tissue response and internal health. This isn’t high-street beauty — it’s medicine-guided aesthetics.

In fact, Sonja will occasionally pause or delay a HIFU treatment if internal health indicators suggest the skin first needs deeper support. Because here, health always comes before aesthetics — and that’s why the results last.

Now Imagine This…

A gentle winter escape to the Costa Blanca…
Sunlight. Sea air. Deep rest.
And during your stay — a full medical-grade HIFU facial lifting treatment that would cost more than double back home.

You return feeling:
✨ Brighter
✨ Firmer
✨ More refreshed
✨ And quietly amazed at what you didn’t overspend

For many of our international clients, this has become the perfect “rejuvenation weekend” — wellbeing, beauty and value in one elegant experience.

🖤 Black Friday Week — Not a Discount. Just Awareness.

This is not a Black Friday offer.
This is simply the everyday Costa Med standard, now being shared more widely for those who may be planning winter travel or early New Year wellness escapes.

✅ Get the Costa Med Osteopaths Difference NOW:

• Medical-grade non-surgical HIFU facelift
• Whole-face treatment (not fragmented zones)
• Ethical, health-first approach
• Internationally remarkable value
• Magical Mediterranean warm sunshine and blue skies setting

🌸 Gentle, Effective Support After Breast Cancer Treatment

After surgery, chemotherapy, or radiotherapy, many women struggle to regain movement in their arms and shoulders. Even simple daily actions — brushing your hair, reaching overhead, or fastening a bra — can feel difficult or painful.

For many, swelling or lymphoedema can also develop after lymph nodes are removed, causing heaviness, tightness, or discomfort in the arm. Unfortunately, support options are often limited to compression garments — but there is more that can be done to help.

At Costa Med Osteopaths, Sonja offers a specialised treatment using TECAR + IONS Resonance Therapy — a gentle, non-invasive therapy that helps:
💗 Reduce inflammation, stiffness, and swelling
💗 Improve circulation and lymphatic flow
💗 Support tissue healing and recovery
💗 Restore mobility and range of motion
💗 Ease discomfort and promote relaxation

In Sonja’s expert hands, this treatment provides a safe and soothing way to accelerate recovery — helping you rebuild confidence and reconnect with your body after the challenges of breast cancer treatment.

✨ Many of Sonja’s patients describe it as a game-changer — the moment they start feeling “like themselves” again.

If you or someone you care about is finding it hard to regain arm and shoulder movement, or is struggling with swelling or lymphoedema after breast cancer surgery or therapy, please share this post. The sooner recovery begins, the faster morale, confidence, and well-being can bloom again. 🌷

💪Feel Stronger from the Inside Out💪

Let’s talk honestly — many women quietly live with a weak pelvic floor.
Those little leaks when you laugh, cough, or exercise… that feeling of pressure or dryness… the worry about always needing a pad “just in case.”

TV ads might tell you that hygiene pads are the answer — but they’re not a solution, they’re a cover-up. Your body deserves better than that.

At Costa Med Osteopaths, we offer a gentle, non-invasive way to strengthen your pelvic floor muscles naturally: the HIFEM Pelvic Floor Therapy Chair.

Just sit back, fully clothed and let focused electromagnetic energy do the work for you.
Each session stimulates deep muscle contractions that rebuild tone, control and confidence — doing the equivalent of thousands of perfect Kegels in 30 minutes, without effort or embarrassment.

It’s not about managing the problem anymore.
It’s about restoring your strength, reclaiming your confidence and feeling like yourself again — free, active and comfortable in your body.

Because you deserve to live without worry — and with a strong, confident foundation for everything you love to do.

Make Next-Day Carbs Kinder to Your Blood Sugar...And gentler on your gut too!

If you love rice, pasta and potatoes, you may already know that these foods can really spike your blood sugar levels after eating them, so they've become the bad guys if you're trying to control your blood sugar levels for health reasons, BUT... you maybe be delighted to read the latest science and research about how you can make these foods a little more body-friendly JUST by cooking them, cooling them and eating them next day! 😋

Here's the plan:
Cook your rice, potatoes, or pasta → cool in the fridge → eat cold or reheat gently the next day.

Why?
Cooking and COOLING your starches before eating them changes part of the carbohydrates into resistant starch (RS3), which acts more like fibre. Many people see smaller blood-sugar spikes and happier digestion with this simple hack!

Why is this good?

✅ Slower sugar release: Some of the starch becomes “resistant starch,” so your body digests it more slowly, so less blood sugar spiking.

✅ Gut-friendly: Resistant starch feeds good gut bacteria. In return, they make butyrate — a short-chain fatty acid that fuels your gut lining, calms inflammation and supports healthy digestion.

✅ Works with real foods you already eat: rice, potatoes, pasta—served cold (salads/bowls) or reheated.

How to try it (safe + simple)

1. Cook your rice, pasta or potatoes as usual.
2. Cool quickly: spread in a shallow container and refrigerate within 1 hour. Keep 12–24 h.
3. Enjoy cold (salad/bowl) or reheat once until steaming throughout. Don’t reheat more than once.

Safety first (important for rice & pasta)

👍🏻Refrigerate as quickly as possible after cooking; don’t leave starchy foods at room temp. This prevents Bacillus cereus overgrowth (“fried rice syndrome”).
👍🏻Eat within 1–3 days, or freeze portions. Reheat thoroughly.

Easy meal ideas

🌾 Rice: next-day basmati rice bowl with veggies, herbs, olive oil, lemon.
🥔 Potatoes: chilled potato salad with olive oil + a splash of vinegar (vinegar can further blunt the sugar spike).
🍝 Pasta: cook al dente, chill overnight, then reheat with tomato sauce—or serve as a cold pasta salad.

Good to know:
Not every study finds big changes every time (variety, cooking style and your biology matter). But overall, cooling (and cool→reheat) is a low-effort tweak many people find helpful.

Bonus tip: 🚶 A 10–15 minute quick walk after eating is still one of the most evidence-backed, immediate, effective and reliable ways to blunt a blood sugar spike because your muscles soak up glucose while you move!

Medical note:
If you use insulin or sulfonylureas, any change that lowers your post-meal glucose can affect dosing. Check your levels and speak with your clinician.

When it’s hot, we all know hydration is important. But did you know that hydration isn’t just about water? Your body also needs the right balance of electrolytes — minerals like potassium, magnesium, sodium and calcium — to keep your muscles, nerves and cells working at their best.

Why potassium matters in the heat:
Potassium is essential for muscle function, heart rhythm and fluid balance. Without enough, you may feel tired, get muscle cramps (especially at night), or struggle to recover from activity.

Here’s why you can "leaf" your fatigue behind with these Salad Leaf Superheroes!
Not all leafy greens are equal in potassium content. Take a look at the charts we created comparing the potassium content in different salad leaves available in Spain.
If you swap out the usual iceberg lettuce for Little Gem-style cogollos, lamb’s lettuce (canónigos), rocket (rúcula), spinach (espinacas), or watercress (berros), you’ll be giving your body a lot more of the good stuff to balance electrolytes naturally — while still enjoying that fresh summer crunch.

At Costa Med Osteopaths, both Russell and Sonja are all about helping you to live intelligently well, so here’s a quick tip: if you’re eating salad for the crunch, make it work harder and do more for you!

Here's a quick list showing you the 💚 Leafy Green Potassium Power – per 100g:
🌱 Spinach – raw (espinacas) — 558 mg
🌱 Spinach – cooked (espinacas) — 466 mg
🌱 Lamb’s lettuce (canónigos) — 459 mg
🌿 Rocket (rúcula) — 369 mg
🥬 Watercress (berros) — 330 mg
🥗 Little Gem / Romaine Hearts (cogollos) — 247 mg
🥬 English lettuce — 194 mg
🥬 Curly lettuce (lechuga rizada/crespa) — 187 mg
❄️ Iceberg lettuce — 141 mg

➡️ See the difference? Swap iceberg for watercress or spinach and you’ll double — even triple — the potassium in your salad.

And if salad isn’t your thing, have no fear — the kiwi and banana are here! 🍌🥝

Other Easy-to-Find Potassium Heroes – per 100g
🥑 Avocado — 485 mg
💛 Portobello mushrooms – raw — 437 mg
🧡 Lentils – cooked — 369 mg
🍌 Banana — 358 mg
🍠 Sweet potato – cooked — 337 mg
🥝 Kiwi — 312 mg
💜 Beetroot – cooked — 305 mg
🍈 Cantaloupe melon — 267 mg
🥥 Coconut water — 250 mg per cup (240 ml)
🍅 Tomato — 237 mg
❤️ Pomegranate — 236 mg

Russell and Sonja’s tip: Potassium works hand-in-hand with magnesium, so pairing these foods with nuts or seeds gives your body even better balance.

Stay cool, stay hydrated, and keep your electrolytes happy — your muscles and energy will thank you!

When pain becomes your ‘normal’... it starts stealing more than just your comfort.
It takes your energy.
Your sleep.
Your mood.
Your spark.
Your LIFE!

At Costa Med Osteopaths, we see people every day who’ve been living with chronic discomfort — often for months or years — not realising there is a gentle, hands-on way forward.

The problem is that pain slowly becomes background noise. The brain adapts — because it’s weirdly good at normalising discomfort, especially if it’s not screaming pain. So people just carry on thinking that "it's their age" or that "it'll get better by itself"!

Well...How's that working out for you? 😆🧐

We're here to tell you that you don’t have to ‘just live with it.’

Whether it’s niggling back pain, neck tension, pelvic issues, joint stiffness or just zero energy, our team is here to help you feel like you again.

So let’s talk. Let’s start now.
