Natural FaceLift

This style of massage is a mixture of highly effective techniques taken from Japanese Face massage, Indian Face massage, Acupressure and Facial Reflexology. This massage acts as a natural facelift with no need for surgery or botox injections. Due to daily stresses in life, many people suffer from facial tension, which can cause puffiness, lines and wrinkles. This massage helps to reduce these and gives a more youthful look.

Natural FaceLift Massage combines the techniques of Anma, the traditional system of massage in Japan, and Ayurveda, the nicest Indian healing method. Put together in a specifically designed treatment, the techniques used can improve the complexion, remove toxins from the face, prevent and reduce wrinkles, helping to improve overall health. 

This advanced method of traditional facial massage, treats not only the surface, but also the deep facial tissues with highly refined, gentle hand and finger manipulation. That means this style of massage therapy uses NO needles, not even acupuncture needles! All the work is done with the therapist's hands and finger tips, so there are no side affects whatsoever. 

Because this style of massage works on many different levels, there are multiple benefits. So, let's break them down:

• Muscles: Think of how often we use our facial muscles. You are using them right now! We smile, frown, cry, eat, yawn etc... And over time this can cause a build up of tension in the muscles, reducing the blood and lymph circulation to the facial tissues. Why is this a problem? Because it prevents the removal of waste products and reduces the amount of oxygen and nutrients being received. Natural Face Lift massage helps to reduce the tension in the facial muscles and tissue, therefore improving the flow of blood and lymph (Lymph is the fluid that circulates throughout the lymphatic system).
• Nervous System: The power of touch is vital to our health, and can have an immediate positive impact on our emotions. Our nervous system governs the way we react to our environment and regulates our bodily systems. Natural Face Lift massage can help to calm, soothe and activate the relaxation response in our bodies.
• Circulation: Having a massage will always boost your circulation and this style of massage is no different. It boosts the lymphatic drainage and blood circulation. The lymph vessels are very close to the skin's surface and the gentle stroking used in this massage has a major effect on improving saggy, puffy and grey skin.
• Skin: Our skin is made up of connective tissue formed from lasting and collagen. These weave together and form a flexible, webbed structure. As we age, these fibres lock together and he skin loses its elasticity. So by gently toning these fibres we can promote lost skin flexibility. This massage also helps to shed dead cells, exposing new fresh younger cells. 
• Energy: Our bodies run on energy, it flows through every part of us. But it can become blocked, leaving our bodies unbalanced. This massage helps to balance and unblock the energy centres by using finger pressure on the facial meridians and pressure points, releasing the flow of energy to the bodies energy system.

The benefits of this massage are impressive, but not only does it help with the youthful look and feel, but it also has other healing properties:

• Improve skin suppleness
• Reduce and release any muscle tension in the face and jaw
• Relieve stress symptoms such as insomnia, headaches and eyestrain
• Tone and help to tighten the skin and underlying muscle 
• Stimulate rejuvenation and cellular activity 
• Aid lymphatic circulation, increasing the elimination of toxins and the supply of nutrients to the cells
• Promote blood circulation
• Enhance mental and physical relaxation  

How long does the Natural Face Lift massage results last? Well, this depends on how many treatments you have and how often. It can also depend on your skin type. 

The results of the first treatment last for 3 days, so to get the best from this massage, it is best to have the treatments in bundles of 4 to 5. The closer together the treatments are, the better the results. This is due to muscle memory. Our muscles retain the information we give them through massage. So by having the treatments closer together, we increase the duration of the results.

So, you would have the first treatment, then 4 days later, the second. Depending on your results, the third treatment is generally in a week, and then the fourth in 8 days after that. 

Because of muscle memory, we would then look to move your treatments further apart, to a 3 weekly maintenance system.
