Oriental face massage is different other forms of facial massage. Most other forms simply work the surface of the face to relax and refresh the tissue. Oriental face massage is a combination of traditional Japanese concepts and hand manipulation techniques. Anyone can benifit from a treatment of it from children, men, women and the elderly.

The focus of oriental face massage is not just to improve facial appearance and to balance the bodies ki energy,but to also balance psychological conditions. It utilises traditional Japanese medical concepts such as meridians and tsubo points to balance and harmonise the internal organs. By gently applying pressure and massaging points on the head,neck we treat the whole body in the same way as a Reflexology treatment does. It also works a lot like Acupuncture but instead of using needles we use our finger tips to stimulate the points, so this is ideal for anyone who has a needle phobia.
