Tourists fly 10 hours for European destination's main attraction but reality leaves them floored
Tourists visiting a European hotspot have been left shocked after one of its main attractions was covered up by a picture due to maintenance work in the area A tourist who flew over 10 hours to see a European travel hotspot's main attraction was left floored when he arrived. Young Cho flew from South Korea to Finland in order to visit Helsinki. The city is well known for its cultural destinations boasting a raft of museums, art galleries, theatres, and a huge national concert hall. One of the most popular tourist spots in the city is the Senate Square and cathedral. The square contains some of Helsinki's oldest buildings, dating back to the 1700s, and is surrounded by the city's historic cathedral, Government Palace, and the University of Helsinki. The area has long fought to be dubbed a World Heritage Site. However tourists visiting Helsinki are today welcomed by a sight much different from what they might expect. The cathedral has currently been covered by a picture of itself and the facade fenced off with barriers as work is being done to build a new underground power station, water well, and sewage system. Officials hope it will help events held in the area and improve basic infrastructure. It is thought the work will be carried out in phases until November. Questions had been asked as to why the work had been done in the height of tourist season. But project construction team manager Annina Mattsson explained: 'The square was reserved for a defence forces event at the beginning of July, so work could not start before that. The work on the stairs will be completed before the Helsinki Festival in August.' It will be little relief to Young Cho however, after he travelled hundreds of miles to see a picture of the cathedral. He told MTV Uutiset: 'I think it's very beautiful but this is just a picture. We flew here for 10 hours so it is a little bit disappointing.' Kristina Almén from Sweden would have liked to take home a photo of the real church as a souvenir. 'Now I don't know what this actually looks like.' Other tourists however have accepted that the building work has to go ahead. Henrik Caroe Gjellebol, who was visiting from Denmark, said: 'Of course it would be nice to see it finished with the renovation but I fully understand it needs to be done from time to time. 'What can I say? I would love to see it another time when the renovation is finished.' While Canadian Cindy Hardy says there are other buildings to visit in Helsinki. She commented: 'It's a little disappointing because it would be nice to see it as it's meant to be seen but Helsinki though has so many beautiful buildings so there's lots to see. 'We did notice that there's a lot of construction going on or renovations but there's so much beauty in all of the buildings around.'

Integrated Aesthetics Now Offers Drug-Free Mental Health Treatment, Exomind
Spring, TX— Integrated Aesthetics, a comprehensive aesthetics and wellness practice, has expanded its whole-person care model with the introduction of EXOMIND, an FDA-cleared, drug-free therapy for Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). The non-invasive protocol employs EXOMIND's patented ExoTMS™ technology to stimulate specific neural circuits in the brain responsible for emotional regulation, cognitive control, and decision-making. EXOMIND helps patients regain mental clarity, resilience, and balanced mood in under 30 minutes per session. Located in Spring and The Woodlands, Texas, Integrated Aesthetics has long combined plastic surgery expertise, advanced dermatologic services, and a 60-plus-treatment medspa under one roof. By adding EXOMIND to its wellness portfolio, the practice aims to give patients a safe, comfortable route to clearer thinking and balanced mood—no pharmaceuticals, injections, or anesthesia required. 'Beauty and confidence flourish when the mind is healthy,' said board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Young Cho. 'Our patients already trust us to care for their bodies and their skin; EXOMIND now lets us support their mental wellness without medication, downtime, or stigma. It's a natural extension of our mission to treat the whole person. EXOMIND addresses a growing public-health priority: mental wellness now ranks as the number-one health concern among U.S. adults, outranking both obesity and cancer. Recognizing this urgent need, Integrated Aesthetics takes a holistic approach that pairs leading-edge aesthetic services with science-backed cognitive treatments. The EXOMIND device targets the brain with focused magnetic pulses, promoting neuroplasticity, rebuilding weakened neural pathways, and 're-training' thought patterns linked to depression. Reported benefits include sharper mental clarity, relief from brain fog, improved emotional stability, assistance in addiction recovery, reduced anxiety, and even metabolic support for weight-management efforts—all without systemic side effects. Integrated Aesthetics' multidisciplinary team guides each patient through a comprehensive consultation to determine candidacy. Six sessions (two per week) complete the protocol, each lasting less than half an hour, so patients can resume their day immediately. Most describe the sensation as a gentle tapping on the scalp—comfortable and entirely non-claustrophobic. The new service aligns perfectly with the practice's broader wellness offerings, which include hormone optimization, sexual health therapies, body composition programs, and regenerative treatments. The practice's co-founder and board-certified dermatologist, Dr. Melissa Chiang, explained, 'Exomind helps quiet the negative self-talk and judgment that so many of us struggle with—the very patterns that often bring people into our practice in the first place. We've always focused on helping you feel confident in your outer beauty—but with Exomind, we now have the opportunity to help you see the beauty within yourself as well.' For individuals who have not responded to—or prefer to avoid—pharmaceutical antidepressants, EXOMIND offers an attractive alternative. Unlike medications that can require weeks to titrate and may cause weight change, sexual side effects, or systemic fatigue, the ExoTMS approach delivers targeted neuromodulation while patients remain fully alert. After completing the full six-session course, many report lasting improvements that continue to strengthen over subsequent weeks as neural networks adapt. Integrated Aesthetics invites adults experiencing depression, persistent anxiety, brain fog, or other mood-related concerns to schedule an EXOMIND consultation at either of its convenient locations. The Spring office is located at 5061 Farm to Market 2920, Spring, TX 77388, and the Woodlands location is at 26118 I-45, Spring, TX 77386.
