Bite II
TheraFace PRO
Adding to his ever-expanding portfolio of water features and sculptures, award-winning British sculptor David Harber has unveiled a new iteration of his Bite sculpture. Bite II is hand-crafted from copper and patinated in a rich verdigris. Produced at Harber’s rural Oxfordshire workshop, the new design features two offset conical faces of mirror-polished stainless steel that meet in the middle to create a vortex of distorted reflections. The transition from a sphere into conical mirror inlays creates an optical illusion. The sculpture received its official preview at this year’s Chelsea Flower Show in May as part of a stand designed by garden designer Emily Erlam. Standing at 90cm in diameter, Bite II is also available in oxidised and stainless steel finishes. “I’m excited by the interplay of spherical and conical surfaces, the textures and tones of each metal contrast in aesthetic harmony,” Harber said of his work. www.davidharber.co.uk
Providing eight treatments with one device, the new TheraFace PRO from percussive therapy specialist Therabody provides gentle massage designed specifically for the face. The device, which has microcurrent and LED red light as well as an infrared light therapy attachment, allows spas to add a chargeable self-care option to their menu, for example in relaxation areas. It can also be used in treatments to reduce the strain placed on therapist’s hands. “As the experts in whole-body wellness, we’ve translated that philosophy to the area of the body above the shoulders,” says Dr Jason Wersland, founder and chief wellness officer of Therabody. Interchangeable magnetic ring attachments allow for seamless changes between skin-toning microcurrent therapy, light therapy, tension-relieving Cryothermal technology and percussive massage therapy. It can also be used to alleviate muscle tension and headaches. www.therabody.com/uk/en-gb
