Remedial Massage and Facial

The Remedial Facial and Remedial Massage are therapeutic treatments designed to address tension, discomfort, and promote relaxation. The Remedial Facial focuses on relieving headaches, TMJ discomfort, and neck and shoulder tension, incorporating techniques like the rhythmic Japanese Kobido, acupressure, facial cupping, and gua sha to enhance circulation, reduce puffiness, and rejuvenate the face. The Remedial Massage is tailored to address muscular pain, injury recovery, and daily stress, aiming to alleviate discomfort, improve range of motion, and prevent future injury while promoting overall relaxation.

Remedial Facial

The remedial facial is a specialised treatment designed to target tension in the chest, neck, face, and head. Helping to relieve headaches, TMJ discomfort and neck and shoulder tension.

With slow and fast hands, this treatment incorporates the rhythmic Japanese Kobido technique, promoting increased blood and oxygen flow to the face while releasing tension in the muscles and connective tissue.

Additionally, the treatment promotes lymphatic drainage, helping to reduce puffiness and fluid retention in the face using acupressure, facial cupping, and gua sha to naturally rejuvenate the face.

Relieve headaches, TMJ discomfort, neck and shoulder tension

  • Improved Circulation: The combination of Kobido techniques, gua sha, and facial cupping stimulates blood flow to the face, promoting the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to the skin, which helps brighten the complexion and support cellular regeneration.
  • Lymphatic Drainage: Gua sha and cupping help promote lymphatic drainage, reducing puffiness and fluid retention in the face. This results in a more sculpted, toned appearance.
  • Relaxation of Facial Muscles: Kobido and acupressure techniques relax tight facial muscles, which can reduce the appearance of tension-related lines and jaw clenching.
  • Enhanced Skin Tone and Glow: The increased circulation of blood flow and lymphatic drainage work together to promote a healthier, more radiant complexion.
