Defeat Stress But Also Increase Well Being By Way Of An Invigorating Facial Massage

Facial massage therapy - if done on a regular basis - is touted by many for its effectiveness

in reversing the effects of aging by tightening and lifting the muscles in your face, resulting in more youthful looking skin. It also helps to reduce the fine lines and wrinkles associated with aging, making it even more popular. Facial massage therapy also helps to exfoliate the skin by removing the dead skin cells and dirt that give your face a dull appearance.

If a facial massage lasts too long, it can result in stretched muscles, so your therapist will limit it to about 20 minutes. People with sensitive skin cannot handle excess amounts of pressure, as it can result in irritation or damage to the skin. Most massage therapists apply massage oil or lotions to the face prior to the facial massage to lubricate it and reduce friction. This is done after an inspection of your skin to determine if it is oily or dry; some clients with oily skin may need little or no lubricant.

Facial massage therapy can increase circulation and reduce the effects of aging ... but what else does it do? It also serves to improve your skin's texture and tone, moisturizes it and reduces any redness that may be present. Occurrences of breakouts and blemishes can also be reduced - or even eliminated - by facial massage therapy.

When beginning your facial massage session, your therapist will scrub and cleanse the skin (which is called exfoliation) to insure a completely clean surface, free of makeup and contaminants. He/she will then continue the session by applying massage creams or lotions to reduce friction during the actual massage. When thoroughly lubricated, your therapist will complete your facial massage by the use of gentle, soothing strokes on various areas of your face to achieve the most benefit.

Following are some of the areas your massage therapist will address during your facial massage and the benefits they provide:

Massaging the forehead and nose areas reduces the appearance of horizontal lines.

Pores are unclogged and blemishes reduced by targeting the nostrils.

Massaging the area around the cheeks and mouth can prevent wrinkles and sagging muscles.

Bags under your eyes are eliminated by targeting the area around the eyes.

Muscle tone is increased - and sagging skin reduced - by massaging the chin and neck.

Massaging the ears stimulates other parts of the body.

So remember ... whenever you feel a certain amount of stress from everyday life or your body starts to ache, and you feel like you could use a good massage, think about your face. Just like in your body, stress and fatigue can show up in your face; the best remedy is a facial massage to take the stress out of your face and make you feel like a brand new person.
