What is KOBIDO massage?

Kobido massage comes from Japan. This highly effective technique covers the face, shoulders and neck and is considered as an alternative to many aesthetic medicine treatments. It is lymphatic drainage and a lifting face massage. During its implementation, the specialist focuses on the elimination of tensions and restoring the functions of the muscles. We observe a huge variety of techniques and their intensity. This is of great importance as it allows the deeper layers of the skin, muscles and the nervous system to be stimulated. At this stage, there is talk of an increase in energy flow, which gives the effect of a natural lifting and allows for a younger appearance. Such deep tissue massage allows you to observe the results after the first session, but to maintain them, the treatments should be repeated in a cycle agreed with the therapist, but not too often. Importantly, we can count on relaxation. The masseur will focus on the muscles of the shoulders, neckline, neck, head and face.

During the treatment

This treatment consists of several successive stages. These are quite quick and intense movements that, at first, may cause a slight discomfort. The first stage of the treatment allows for the effective removal of muscle tensions, which leads to the smoothing of fine expression lines. The second stage is relaxing the muscles that remain tense as a result of the accumulated emotions. It is usually followed by a very important stage - lymphatic drainage. Only after all these intense stages can the main part of the treatment begin, i.e. the lifting and modeling stage. The final stage is acupressure and the obligatory to wake up and cool the heated tissue with salt ball massage. At the customer's request, at the end, kinesiotaping (aesthetic taping) is used, i.e. covering parts of the face with kinesiological tapes to strengthen and extend the effects of the treatment.
