Have you heard of the Kobido Facial Massage? Are you curious to know what it is about and if it is for you?

Kobido Facial Massage is an ancient Japanese technique that has gained popularity around the world due to its notable skin and well-being benefits.

Give us just a few minutes of your time and we will tell you, first-hand, what it is like, what benefits it has and why it has become one of our clientele’s favorite treatments. You dare?

Origin of the Kobido Facial Massage

The Kobido Facial Massage has its origins in Japan. Some sources indicate that it was practiced among samurai to relax after battles. For many years, Kobido massage was only available to the Japanese royal family and nobility.

It was not until 1984 that Doctor Mochizuki, heir to an important family of Japanese doctors, moved to North America and there, he began to practice and teach the art and technique of this sensational massage.

The Kobido Facial Massage

Its main characteristic is the rejuvenating effect it has on the face and neck, hence it is also known as a Japanese facelift. Due to its technique, it promotes the natural production of collagen and elastin. It is a very energizing massage, which, to the surprise of our clients, produces a wonderfully calming effect.

Combine the massage with the use of oils and facial sprays with aromas that transport you to places from which you feel you never want to return. After a few simple questions, the specialist will determine what type of products best adapt to the specific needs of each client. Always taking into account the nature of the skin to be treated, whether oily, dry, combination, sensitive, ultrasensitive…

The Kobido Facial Massage treats those areas that may concern us, as it reduces expression lines and increases the firmness and luminosity of the skin. The specialist can influence the areas to be treated. At the end of the massage, our clients tell us that they initially opted for this massage as an aesthetic treatment, but that the experience of deep well-being obtained with the massage also makes it a therapeutic treatment. With the addition of the peace of mind of not undergoing any invasive procedure.

What is the Kobido Facial Massage?

As we always say, each person is a world. And every massage too. Life habits, mood, diet, among other factors, influence each person to feel the massage differently.

In the case of the Kobido Facial Massage, the treatment begins with the application of a hot compress to the face. The skin is cleansed, relaxed, and prepared to receive the benefits of this massage. Starting with the upper part of the chest, shoulders and neck, the professional performs with her hands a series of quick percussive movements that are very pleasant for the person receiving them.

There are professionals who also use tools in addition to their hands, such as a jade stone or rose quartz roller. At Zenia Natural, our specialist prefers in this case to use her hands to work on the skin and deep tissue.

This massage activates all the internal muscles and tissues of the face, as well as the fascia that covers our skull. We already know the importance of taking care of fascial tissue for our body. If you have not yet read our article on this topic, we leave it to you at the following link.

What is an acupuncture facelift?

It is an aesthetic acupuncture technique that consists of using acupuncture to rejuvenate the skin of the face and neck and attenuate, even making disappear, the most obvious signs of aging, that is, wrinkles.

For this, small and fine needles are used, practically painless. These needles are inserted into the points that the specialist considers appropriate to increase blood flow in the area. So the body is balanced, the blocked points are unblocked and the energy flows again through the meridians.

Thanks to the needles inserted into the facial acupuncture points, blood flow is restored. Thus, the nutrients transported by the blood manage to improve both internal health and the external appearance of the treated area, in this case the face.

How does facial acupuncture arise?

Like many other discoveries in the field of medicine, the acupuncture facelift arose purely by chance.

A traditional Chinese medicine specialist was treating a patient with facial paralysis and observed that the previously paralyzed part had a better tone and fewer wrinkles than the rest of her skin.

So she began to treat this aesthetic problem using acupuncture. Thus demonstrating that it is a perfect technique to rejuvenate the face and neck of people who decide to undergo it.

How many sessions of acupuncture for facelift are recommended to obtain results?

Our acupuncture expert, Saray Martínez, recommends 5 facial acupuncture sessions to achieve the desired results, although she ensures that the effects are visible from the first session.

After finishing the treatment it is essential to take care of the treated skin. By avoiding exposing it to the sun without protection, using moisturizing creams suitable for our skin type, and keeping ourselves hydrated, we will make the effects last longer.

It is also advisable to do a reinforcement session. It depends on the person, the results you want to achieve and the condition of your skin. Although doing two booster sessions a year, starting the first year after full treatment, may be enough.

Up to two weekly sessions can be done, so the treatment does not take forever and the benefits and improvements in the skin of the neck and face are appreciated much sooner.

Benefits of acupuncture for facelift.

At this point, we already know that it is an effective, affordable method and without the risk that always involves undergoing surgical treatment. But does it have more benefits? Yes, it does.

Whenever we undergo an acupuncture treatment, whether on the face, back, legs or any other part of our body, we are providing our body with endless benefits.

As we have briefly pointed out before, the needles inserted into the acupuncture points carry out an important function, that of restoring the flow of energy in our body (chi), unblocking the channels through which said energy flows (meridians).

Our body is revitalized, rests, recovers from daily stress, readjusts and above all improves all its functions, starting with the blood system, which is responsible for feeding us and making us function internally.

Our patients tell us that they feel much better on a mental level after their facial acupuncture treatments. They notice their brighter, more rested face and many say they sleep better. They also tell us that their skin tone improves considerably, especially that of smokers, so that facial acupuncture also serves to counteract the harmful effects of tobacco on our skin.

Saray, our acupuncture expert at Zenia Natural, usually performs a gua sha massage once she removes the acupuncture facelift needles. This massage with a heart-shaped jade or rose quartz stone favors lymphatic drainage and activates circulation in the muscles.

Reduces possible inflammations, and favors the elimination of toxins. In short, you can’t miss it!
