Cranium, Face and Neck Sculpting

This energetic cranial therapy differs greatly from other techniques treating the bone structure of the face, the neck and the head. Masa’s gentle, precise and dexterous movements loosen the bones little by little and drain and release toxins. The small touches that she exercises on the face stimulate blood circulation and boost the lymphatic system. Her use of Japanese traditional face brushes stimulates, activates and increases immunity. Through the release of tension and proper relocation of the temporal bones, your face will be sculpted into its ideal structure with your cheekbones more elevated. Thanks to this deep tissue cleansing, the dermis can better absorb the active ingredients of beauty products, for example moisturizer and make-up. The skin firms up and better resists the appearance of wrinkles. After the session you will feel relaxed and calm with a real sensation of well-being, as if you’d just come back from vacation. Your eyes feel rested, the skin smooth, and the face looks open.
