Auto massage: is facial massage effective?

Have you been inundated with facial massage videos for some time too? Are these techniques straight from Asia and inspired by traditional Chinese medicine as effective as they seem? Well, the answer is yes! It’s simple, our sweet face being made up of a multitude of muscles that we tense throughout the day (when we laugh, when we talk, when we frown…), perform a massage to relax them is ultra beneficial. By stimulating blood and lymphatic circulation, the skin is oxygenated to obtain a brighter, toned and decongested complexion. With regular practice, wrinkles are reduced and news is delayed. Why not be tempted?

What is the best massage to rejuvenate the face?

Kobido massage

Do you want to adopt facial massage in your routine? At the moment, Kobido massage is all the rage. This ancestral Japanese technique, practiced in an institute, has thousands of different massage gestures and is considered a true traditional art. It acts deep down in the muscles to plump and tone the face.

Anti-wrinkle massage: Gua Sha or Jade roller?

While the Kobido relies on perfect use of his hands and wrists, some techniques use small props. This is the case of the Gua Sha massage, derived from Chinese alternative medicine, which requires a semi-precious stone massage tool. This method stimulates blood and lymphatic circulation, evacuates toxins and is recognized for its anti-aging properties.

Another trend, rollerblading or jade roller. Very easy to use, just roll it, from the center outwards, on specific areas of your face to drain, plump and improve the elasticity of the skin.

How to do facial massage?

After arming yourself with your best tools, know that there are several small rules and tips for optimal results. The key to success ? Regularity! Yes, do not think that a massage session is equivalent to a botox session. To see real effects on your sweet face, we suggest at least 3 sessions per week, to be carried out in the morning or in the evening. Our preference? Treat yourself to a moment of relaxation after a hard day’s work and spend 5 minutes on your self-massage, with a night oil to take advantage of the cell regeneration peak that takes place when you sleep. It is also specified that you never use your Gua Sha or your Jade roller on bare skin: always moisturize your face with an oil or a very rich moisturizing cream to facilitate the gesture.

In terms of technique, there are a multitude of tutorials, to be adapted according to your utensils and your needs. Some will prefer to focus on the chin to redraw the oval of the face while others will attack more their expression lines. If you choose the Gua Sha, we suggest holding it flat on the skin, starting from the center of the face outwards and keeping in mind that you always go up for a lifting effect.
