About Kobido massage
The world-renowned Kobido facial massage incorporates over 1000 techniques aimed at nurturing firmer, radiant skin. This practice finds its origins in Chinese medicine and traditional Japanese skincare.
Allow me to explain further the mechanisms behind this massage’s effectiveness:
- We possess more than 70 facial muscles that, unlike skeletal muscles, strengthen with age, causing visible wrinkles. Regularly relaxing these muscles is crucial to stop this process.
- During the massage, controlled damage occurs in the skin’s deeper layers, stimulating increased oxygen, collagen, and nutrient production. This prompts quicker regeneration and reduction in wrinkles.
- As we age, facial muscles tend to connect to the skin and sag. Through precise massage techniques, I lift these tissues upward, effectively preventing sagging and maintaining facial contour.
- Incorporating lymphatic drainage techniques, Kobido gently yet effectively reduces puffiness, swelling, and aids detoxification by promoting the natural flow of lymphatic fluids. This enhanced circulation rejuvenates the skin, resulting in a refreshed, revitalized complexion
Kobido main stages
To cleanse the skin with a gentle foam, preparing it for the treatment
The technique of deep tissue massage involves slow, intense elongation of tissue to restore balance in the layer of connective tissue and muscles. The massage relieves tension and increases the flexibility of tissues in the face, neck and chest.
This stage induces deep relaxation and looseness in the facial skin. It alleviates all muscle tensions, reducing the visibility of expression wrinkles. This step impacts both the physical and mental aspects of the massage, allowing for rest and genuine relaxation. The massage stimulates circulation, improving the complexion of the facial skin.
Manual lymphatic drainage is a type of compressive massage that affects the lymphatic system. By stimulating and improving lymphatic circulation in the body, it enhances the functioning of the entire lymphatic system. By removing swelling and toxins, it leaves your skin radiant and healthy
