What is Japanese Face Massage?
Kobido, an ancient Japanese face massage, offers numerous benefits for both the skin and overall well-being. By enhancing skin vitality, it harmonizes the skin’s condition and improves blood circulation. This massage brings definition to facial contours, releases expression lines, and eliminates toxins, promoting a radiant, glowing complexion. Additionally, Kobido fosters a profound connection with the body, providing deep relaxation and mental clarity. It allows for an inner journey, leaving you feeling light, clear, and rejuvenated in both body and soul. Overall, Kobido is a holistic treatment that supports the protection and renewal of the epidermis, reflecting inner health and happiness.

Increased local circulation of the skin.
Increased nutrients brought to the epidermis.
Reduction of edema and chronic puffiness via the drainage of stagnant fluids from reservoir areas.

Beauty is more than skin deep.
When we embrace and honor the timeless tradition of getting older, we capture the timeless beauty within. The body then follows the mind, and magical things begin to take place; we radiate confidence, we glow with wisdom and ultimately we more readily nourish our appearance with the beauty that is already inside of us!
Some say that the eyes are the window to the soul, but in my experience it is the skin that tells the story of a life well lived. The skin is a very resilient organ, and yet it is also delicate and sensitive. The skin filters out environmental toxins, protects the internal bodily functions from the external world, and along with our facial expressions it is an excellent communicator! The skin can show you what the air quality is, where you live, how you eat, and what thoughts you have. All of these things (and more) impact the rate at which you age. At Four Pillars Ayurveda, I take all of things into consideration as I create a facial rejuvenation plan for each of my clients.
