“CORAIL Feamainne”, which translated from Irish means Seaweed Treatment Centre, recently launched its unique pamper package. Marrying traditions with innovative technology, this Irish seaweed treatment is claimed to be one of a kind. The holistic treatment uses fresh seaweed from Ireland’s west coast, which the makers claim is renowned for its healing and soothing abilities for arthritis, backache and skin conditions.

The Seaweed Treatment Centre is owned and run by Liz Murphy, who, after years of working in the international diagnostic market, returned to her hometown and opened Murphystore. Based in a historic building, Liz opened an outlet for the promotion of local art, craft and Irish seaweed products. Her Irish Seaweed Treatment Centre is the latest addition to the company.

The innovation behind Corail Feamainne’s treatment is the seaweed paste itself. Using new technology, whereby heat is not applied during the production process, the paste retains the seaweed’s natural proteins and vitamins, which she claims are lost in other processing systems. The result is a bioactive material, rich in iodine, iron and zinc and vitamins E and C, important elements for healthy skin.

Seaweed is claimed to exfoliate and draw out impurities from the skin. Removing dead cells, it allegedly cleanses and refreshes the skin enhancing cellular renewal. This toning effect boosts circulation. Seaweed cells reflect those of human plasma and as such balance cellular energy.

Speaking at the launch, Donal Maguire of BIM said: “Seaweeds are remarkable in that they share many of the characteristics of human skin; they have to be able to withstand the drying and ageing effects of ultraviolet radiation from the sun and still stay supple and moist. Seaweed has even been shown to mobilise melanin pigments, just like the tanning process. These unique qualities make it an ideal skin treatment and it is great to see top quality Irish seaweed being used to create this exclusive and natural experience.”
