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.
