With Körperelle, Lauriane Fritz works with people weakened by physical or mental illness, disability or social difficulties.

 

Focus on this profession with deeply human values.

summary of the article

What is socio-aesthetics?

Socio-aesthetics is a discipline that combines traditional aesthetic care with a social and therapeutic dimension. Concretely, it consists of offering beauty and well-being care to people in vulnerable situations: hospitalized patients, elderly people, people in social reintegration, in precarious situations, victims of violence, people with cancer, people with disabilities...

 

These treatments aim not only to improve the physical appearance of patients, but also and above all to restore their self-esteem, strengthen their self-confidence and provide them with moral support.

 

Socio-estheticians are beauty professionals trained to work directly in patients' homes, or in structures such as hospitals, retirement homes, social centers or foster homes.

Körperelle, to restore confidence to people weakened by illness

Lauriane Fritz is a passionate socio-esthetician who has transformed her career to bring well-being to those who need it most. After completing a 2-year training program, she created her own business, Körperelle, through which she restores confidence and comfort to individuals weakened by illness or disability through tailored aesthetic treatments.

Through aesthetic gestures, she brings well-being to her patients while taking into account their physical and emotional needs. Lauriane Fritz also carries out workshops around different themes, such as cancer, where she welcomes women affected by the disease. These moments are real relief valves, which allow patients to regain confidence and self-esteem.

Focus on the practices and techniques of socio-aesthetics

socio-aesthetics brings together a variety of treatments adapted to the specific needs of each audience.

What aesthetic treatments are carried out?

The treatments offered in socio-aesthetics include:

  • Facial and body treatments: skin cleansing, hydration, relaxing massages, anti-aging treatments, which help revitalize the face and body and provide relaxation and comfort;
  • Hand and foot care: massage, manicure and pedicure, which contribute to relaxation and general well-being;
  • Makeup: makeup sessions that restore radiance, hide signs of fatigue or the effects of medical treatments;
  • Hair care: advice and care to help people feel better, especially if they suffer from hair loss due to illness or stress.

Emotional support

Care is in reality a gateway to broader support, which takes into account the social, emotional, and psychological dimension of each person. Indeed, socio-beauticians do not just provide aesthetic treatments: they also provide emotional and moral support. They create a safe and calming space, in which people can relax, confide and feel listened to, which is particularly important for people who are isolated or suffering psychologically.

Adapted intervention methods

socio-estheticians like Lauriane Fritz adapt their methods according to the context in which they operate, but also according to the specific needs of their patients.

 

For example, for patients undergoing chemotherapy, the actions must be gentle and the cosmetic products chosen carefully so as not to irritate the hypersensitive skin.

In nursing homes, gestures must be slow and soothing, to relieve elderly people, who are often sensitive. Each care is thus personalized to offer maximum well-being and comfort, and to meet the needs of mature skin.

The benefits of socio-aesthetics

socio-aesthetics brings benefits to the physical and mental well-being of patients, but also to their quality of life.

Improved self-esteem and self-confidence

For many people in vulnerable situations, their self-image is altered, whether by illness, insecurity, or traumatic experiences. By giving individuals the opportunity to take care of themselves, socio-aesthetics allows them to reconnect with a positive image and well-being. Aesthetic treatment becomes a way to reclaim your body and your appearance, which has a direct impact on self-esteem.

Stress reduction and emotional calming

The gestures of the socio-beautician, gentle and caring, promote relaxation and help to ease tensions. For people hospitalized or isolated, beauty treatments provide a comforting break and help reduce stress, anxiety and sometimes even pain. This bodily relaxation also helps improve sleep and general mood.

Restoration of social ties

socio-aesthetics promotes social bonds and breaks isolation. The sessions offer moments of conviviality, listening, and exchanges which allow people to feel less alone. In some cases, the socio-esthetician becomes a trusted figure with whom individuals can share their emotions, their fears, and their hopes.

The importance of the quality of the products used

In socio-esthetics, the products used must be gentle, safe, and healthy. It is essential that cosmetics are suitable for sensitive skin, and have an impeccable composition: pollutants, petroleum derivatives, irritants, allergens, endocrine disruptors, and PEGs have no place in them.

 

TheGrangettes brand designs safe cosmetics, excluding any controversial or harmful ingredients from its product range. The objective? Take care of everyone's health.
