Tsuboki Facial Massage uses massage and acupressure techniques to work on the muscles of the face. It works on both deep and superficial muscles.

It is suitable for suitable for men or women who want to feel good on the inside and the outside.

This helps to reduce the development of wrinkles, improves the tone and appearance of the skin and encourages the elimination of waste products.

Hence a Tsuboki Facial Massage is a great treatment to help us age well and is often described as being a “natural face lift”.

The Japanese believe that beauty is more than skin deep. The fantastic thing about Tsuboki Japanese Facial Massage is that it works on many levels at the same time, from the inside out

Tsuboki Facial Massage stimulates of acupressure points and meridians, and this helps to stimulate the whole body through its work on the meridians. The treatment includes:

  • Neck massage
  • Detailed face massage
  • 50 acupressure points worked on
  • 8 meridians
  • Lymphatic drainage- which encourages the removal of metabolic waste products.

A Tsuboki Facial Massage is very relaxing to receive. However as 7 of the 8 meridians that run through the face are yang (or more energising) meridians, this explains why clients often report feeling deeply relaxed during the massage but also balanced and energised afterwards.

The Session

The session starts with an initial consultation and filling in a health questionnaire (as there are some health conditions that are contra-indicated, meaning a Tsuboki Facial Massage isn’t appropriate for you).

You will then be made comfortable on a couch. If you wish, you can stay fully clothed, but it is beneficial that your neck and shoulders are accessible. You can either come wearing a camisole top or vest, or a gown will be provided.

You will be asked to remove necklace and earrings.

The Tsuboki Facial Massage will start on the shoulders and neck, releasing any tension in these areas.

Your scalp will be massaged. This helps to condition the scalp and enhance blood circulation in the head. When the scalp is “tight” from stress, circulation and hair growth are impeded.

Your face will then be massaged. An organic facial oil will be used as crystal facial tools are used on the face to release tension and toxins and leave skin more toned and radiant.

The 8 meridians of the face will then be worked on to balance the health of the whole body. The tsubos of the face will be worked on as many of these have a specific beneficial effect on the appearance of the face.

The session concludes working with the Lymphatic system to encourage the removal of metabolic waste.

The whole sessions – including time for a drink of water (essential for releasing toxins) will take approximately 60 minutes.

Cost £40 for a 60 minute session
