Kobido massage is an ancestral Japanese technique designed to rejuvenate and revitalize the face.
It alternates between gentle digitopressions derived from shiatsu, percussion, pinching and smoothing of the face, as well as work on wrinkles.
It is performed using an oil with properties adapted to the facial area.
It is a true ritual that also combines toxin drainage thanks to digitopressions on several facial meridians.
In addition to its aesthetic benefits, Kobido provides deep relaxation, harmonizing body and mind.
It seduces with its effectiveness and holistic approach, making well-being a priority while sublimating the skin.
