What is Acupressure Facial Massage?
This luxurious treatment combines the ancient wisdom of acupressure with modern facial massage techniques to promote radiant skin, release facial tension, and provide deep relaxation. It's much more than a beauty treatment - it works on energetic and structural levels to promote overall wellbeing.
Using gentle pressure on specific acupressure points around the face, head, and neck, this treatment stimulates energy flow, releases tension, and promotes lymphatic drainage. The result is a natural glow, reduced puffiness, and a profound sense of relaxation.
Benefits for Mind and Body
While your skin will look refreshed and radiant, the benefits go deeper. Facial acupressure can help relieve headaches, reduce stress, improve sleep, and promote emotional balance. Many clients report feeling profoundly relaxed and renewed after treatment.
What to Expect
Your Facial Experience
You'll recline comfortably while I work on your face, head, neck, and shoulders. The treatment uses natural oils or serums suitable for your skin type. Soft music and a calm environment enhance the deeply relaxing experience.
Treatment Sequence
The session begins with gentle cleansing and assessment of your skin. I then use a combination of techniques including acupressure point stimulation, gentle massage strokes and lymphatic drainage. Special attention is given to releasing tension in the jaw, temples, and forehead.
Aftercare
Your skin will look fresh and glowing immediately after treatment. The results typically improve over the following days as lymphatic drainage continues. Drink plenty of water and avoid heavy makeup for a few hours if possible to let your skin breathe.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, the treatment includes specific work on jaw muscles and TMJ-related acupressure points. Many clients with jaw tension or teeth grinding often find significant relief (though I'd recommend following up with a Bowen session to address any underlying postural causes).
Your skin will be clean and nourished after treatment. It's best to let it breathe for a few hours if possible, but if you need to apply makeup, choose light, breathable products.
