Have you tried body brushing? This anti-inflammatory skin treatment has a multitude of skin-boosting benefits; it removes dry, rough skin, boosts elasticity, increases drainage from the lymphatic system, promotes circulation and reduces the appearance of cellulite. Dr. Sturm’s BODY BRUSH comes in two variations - soft and medium – if you’re new to body brushing, begin with the softer bristles until you become accustomed to the pressure.  

Movement is essential for releasing inflammation-reducing hormones in the body. And it doesn’t mean you have to start incorporating regular 5K runs in your routine – studies have found that doing just one 20-minute cardio session can lower inflammatory levels. Try practising 20 minutes of a low-to-moderate intensity Pilates or yoga class – or try taking a brisk walk - to build strength and flexibility, whilst allowing yourself a moment of self-care.

It is sometimes hard to follow a healthy diet in today’s fast paced life. Dr. Sturm created her oral supplements collection, STURM INSIDE, with holistic ingredients that boost overall body wellness, and work in tandem with your skincare to support skin health from the inside-out. If you find it difficult to remember to take your supplements every day, attach taking them to another activity you’re already doing consistently, such as brushing your teeth to help you. Not sure where to start? Find the right supplement for you by following this guide. 

The key to great skin is consistency. Make sure you are always stocked up on your favorite Dr. Sturm supplements with our Auto-Replenishment program. 

A hot bath is the fastest way to relax and rejuvenate after a long day, but it’s also proven to have amazing whole-body benefits too, from soothing sore muscles and joints, to reducing stress levels and relieving cold symptoms. Milk baths are full of nourishing vitamins and minerals and hold anti-inflammatory properties which are ideal for soothing and healing skin. Simply add some whole milk and dark honey to hot water (honey adds an extra hydrating and calming effect), close your eyes and listen to something soothing to create a comforting escape from everyday stressors.   

Drinking plenty of water and upping your intake of water-rich foods such as soups and smoothies will work inside your body to keep winter dehydration at bay. Add in Dr. Sturm’s SKIN PROTECTION SUPPLEMENT, which contains adaptogens Ashwagandha and Rhodiola, to boost the body's resistance to chemical and physical stress and strengthen skin barrier function. On the outside, make sure you’re using more hydration-rich body products; after showering, apply the SUPER ANTI-AGING BODY SERUM and the ANTI-AGING BODY CREAM to lock-in moisture and leave your skin soft and smooth.    

If you’re able to, take some time to get outdoors today. Studies have shown that spending time immersed in nature has the potential to lower inflammation, reduce stress, boost serotonin levels and even increase our creativity and clarity levels – something we can all do with during a hectic day. Just make sure that, wherever you are, you apply a broad-spectrum SPF to protect your skin from the elements, and prevent the dark spots, fine lines and inflammation that can be caused by UVA exposure. 

Including probiotic and prebiotic foods such as kefir, kimchi and live yoghurt in your diet is key to a healthy gut microbiome, which supports essential body functions and effects your metabolism, immune system, appetite, mood and skin health. Dr. Sturm’s delicious anti-inflammatory kefir smoothie bowl is a great booster to start the day with a happy gut – try adding your favorite Dr. Sturm supplements such as SKIN RECOVERY into the mix to supercharge your smoothie’s effects.
