In search of a natural solution to blurring wrinkles, I tested this amazing Japanese ancestral ritual.
In the world of anti-aging care, some techniques cross eras and continents, establishing themselves as real beauty rituals. This Japanese ancestral facial massage is renowned for its natural approach and its effects on skin youth. This treatment intrigues and attracts more and more followers. To better understand its benefits, I fly to Barcelona, direction the prestigious Majestic Hotel & Spa, for an immersion in this millennial art.
The experience begins in the elegant and soothing setting of the hotel spa, a place designed for serenity and well-being, conducive to relaxation. The practitioner presents me with the principles of this ritual. It is a complete treatment that stimulates the skin and lymphatic microcirculation of the face, neck and neckline. It is much more than a simple massage; It is a precise protocol that combines various manual techniques: kneading, drainage, smoothing, percussion. The objective? Relaunch the production of collagen and elastin, and thus offer a natural facelift effect on the face.
During the session, the precise and rhythmic movements of the practitioner create a unique feeling of deep well-being. Each gesture of the kobido is linked fluidity fluidity, going up the lines of the facial and soliciting the deep muscles. The kneading techniques aim to unravel the muscular tensions of the face, while light percussion stimulate fibroblasts, these cells responsible for the production of collagen. Drains, on the other hand, help to eliminate toxins and reduce swelling. Gradually, the tension leaves my face, my muscles relax and my skin revitalizes. The modeling acts in depth on the tissues, allowing to plump the skin, to reduce fine lines and to redraw the oval of the face.
At the end of the session, my complexion is visibly brighter, my relaxed features, as rested. The small fine lines around my eyes and my mouth seem faded, and my skin displays renewed tone and flexibility. It is not a radical transformation, but a clear and visible improvement. This massage does not promise instant miracles, but it is part of a holistic care process. A regular practice makes it possible to prolong and intensify these effects.
It is a real moment for oneself, a parenthesis of well-being that nourishes the soul as much as the body. For those looking for a natural approach to take care of their skin and its youth capital, Kobido is an ancestral beauty ritual that deserves to be explored.
