Facial Massage Our facial massage is so far beyond the ordinary facial experience it merits its own page. While most spa facial treatments temporarily soften or brighten the surface of the skin, the addition of specialized massage to facial treatments creates a profound result that is much longer lasting, and more than skin deep.
Our facials center on massage for the face but also include cleansing, exfoliation, mask treatments, and a deeply moisturizing finish. Facials begin with a relaxing massage of the neck and shoulders. Almost everyone carries tension and stress in the neck and beginning there reduces muscle tension and aids in lymphatic circulation.
Our training includes facial lypossage, a method of massage to break apart facial cellulite; networks of fat or adipose cells that can mar the natural lines of the jaw and cheekbones and hang loosely below the chin or neck.
Facial acupressure helps to reactivate facial muscles that weaken over time or after sickness, tightening skin over the eyes and forehead where sagging can be quite noticeable.
Kobido Japanese facial massage helps to tone muscles, tightening the surface of the face and minimizing the dark look of the under-eyes and alleviating puffiness by encouraging bloodflow and circulatory drainage.
Just as important are the products we use. Our facial products are entirely organic, free of parabens, propylene glycol, artificial fragrances or dyes, sodium or ammonium laureth/lauryl sulfates, and are produced without animal testing.
