Face massage can improve your skin condition and rejuvenate your face in various ways. It includes smoothing, lifting and stimulating massage stroke patterns. As well as having beneficial effects for the skin, the treatment is very relaxing.
Benefits of face massage for the skin
- Plumps the skin
- Encourages cell renewal
- Stimulates blood flow to the face, improving the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to skin cells.
- Removes dead skin cells, brightening the appearance of the skin.
- Improves skin suppleness by promoting the production of collagen.
- Improves lymphatic drainage, which can reduce puffiness and speed up removal of waste products.
- The release of tension from the face muscles eases frown and other lines.
- Can improve sinus drainage, leading to reduced pressure and fewer sinus headaches.
Relaxing benefits of face massage
As well as its skin benefits, face massage is effective for relaxation and mental well-being. Clients often have the treatment for its relaxing effects, rather than skin benefits. Many people hold tension in their facial muscles, particularly in the jaw, forehead, and around the eyes. Massaging these areas relieves stress, reduces headaches, and encourages relaxation. It also helps to calm the mind and lower cortisol levels.
The price for 30 minutes face massage is £25
How often should you get a face massage?
For best results, you should have face massage regularly – ideally weekly or fortnightly, but at least every 4 weeks.
Can face massage reduce wrinkles?
The effectiveness on wrinkles varies from person to person and depends on the frequency of treatment. Stimulation of blood and lymph circulation by face massage will help to plump up the skin, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. If you hold tension in your face, for example frowning or clenching your teeth, then regular face massage is likely to make a noticeable difference to lines as your face becomes more relaxed.
Face massage with hot stones
Face massage can be enhanced with the use of hot stones. Specially shaped face stones are used in gentle, circular, and sweeping movements. The stones help to improve blood circulation, promoting oxygen and nutrient delivery to the skin for a healthy, radiant glow. The heat relaxes facial muscles, reducing tension and easing headaches or jaw pain. Additionally, the warmth enhances lymphatic drainage, reducing puffiness and detoxifying the skin.
The price for 30 minutes face massage with hot stones is £27
