TsuboKi®
Japanese Face Massage
‘Tsubo’ is a point along a meridian where the body’s energy
is most easily influenced and ‘Ki’ is the name of this
energy. Traditional Japanese massage techniques work on
both the under lying facial musculature as well as the
skin, increasing circulation and removing toxins; the
stimulation of Tsubo, like acupressure points, affect the
whole body. Dermal rollers,‘RidoKi’, are used to invigorate
the skin, with traditional Japanese Camelia Oil leaving it
soft and smooth. A ‘natural facelift’

A
powerful and yet very gentle and relaxing face treatment,
working on both the surface facial musculature as well as
the deep. There are 12 main meridians in the body, 8 of
which run through the face, and by working on these points
we are said to affect the whole body. This may be why
people report afterwards feeling like they’ve had a deep
tissue full body massage.
A combination of ‘Anma’, Japanese massage techniques
(literally meaning ‘rubbing’) and Acupressure is used in
this treatment. Working in this way improves the condition
of the facial skin, diminishing wrinkles, improving muscle
tone, activating the facial nerves, thus increasing the
flow of Ki, Chi or Prana to the face and hey presto, a
natural facelift! Catherine has trained in Advanced (level
2) Tsuboki.

TSUBOKI® Japanese Face Massage is a wonderfully relaxing
yet energising treatment suitable for men or women who want
to feel good on the inside and the outside.
Based in part on the principles of acupressure, it is a
modern take on meridian theory, which goes back thousands
of years in Japan and China. TSUBO = acupressure point -
this is a place along a meridian where the energy can be
most influenced, affecting the body on many levels (see
elsewhere). KI = the energy that flows through the
meridians.
TSUBOKI® = massage using the tsubos to influence the flow
of Ki in the body!
In short, it is a "full body" massage and "natural
facelift" combined into a relaxing and restorative
health-giving treatment. WOW!The Japanese believe that
beauty is more than skin deep, and that to be beautiful you
have to be healthy too. The fantastic thing about Tsuboki™
Japanese face massage is that it works on many levels at
the same time, from the inside and the outside. By working
SUPERFICIALLY we improve skin tone and lymph flow. By
working with the MUSCULATURE at a deeper level, we can
affect muscle tone and general appearance, as well as
prepare the face for the next stage. By working with the
MERIDIANS that run through the face, we can affect the
balance of health in the whole body. In addition, many of
the TSUBOS have a specific beneficial effect on the
appearance of the face. By working with the LYMPHATIC
system we encourage the removal of metabolic waste
products. Many of the techniques can help to prevent lines,
wrinkles, and puffiness - a natural facelift!
The face is a very accessible part of the body to offer for
massage, yet face massage can be the most intimate and
nurturing of massages. The face massage is incredibly
relaxing to receive, but 7 of the 8 meridians that run
through the face are the yang, or more energising ones.
This may explain why clients often report feeling deeply
relaxed during the massage but balanced and energised
afterwards.
TSUBOKI ® massage comprises FOUR specific stages:
STAGE ONE massage to the neck and shoulders to increase
circulation to the face and reduce tension in these areas
STAGE TWO a detailed face massage using camellia oil as
traditionally used in Japan (this is fragrance free).
STAGE THREE working more than 50 tsubos and 8 meridians
STAGE FOUR lymphatic drainage to eliminate toxins
