The Art of Japanese
Zen Facial Massage with Essential Aromatherapy Oils
Japanese Facial Massage is a unique method that focuses on a blend
of the aesthetic and physiological. The
focus of this class is on:
1. Increasing the flow of
oxygen and blood to the facial area, neck and shoulders
2. Toning, tightening the
skin and fascia
3. Lymphatic drainage and
detoxification of skin and organ systems
4. Better mental
alertness, focus and relaxation for the client
5. Emotional cleansing
through ear-acupressure and essential oils
6. Preventive maintenance
for aging and skin blemishes
Traditionally, through the use of Acupressure and special
manipulative massage strokes, the treatment goes beyond Swedish massage and
concentrates on opening up the acupuncture meridians that energize the face,
head and shoulders to achieve a balancing and grounding effect.
Additional physiological relief is obtained for all types of
headaches, TMJ dysfunctions, sinusitis and emotional balancing.
This is a hands-on course where the student learns to incorporate
theory with working with Qi using penetration
techniques, field awareness and intention. The practitioner goes beyond the
superficial beauty of the client by bringing out the radiance of inner health.
