Melt Away Your Stressful Day But Also Let Go By Way Of A Soothing Facial Massage

Facial massage therapy - if done on a regular basis - helps to reduce the signs of aging by tightening and lifting the muscles in the face

. It also reduces the fine lines and wrinkles that appear as we age, making the procedure that much more popular. The skin on your face can appear dull from a buildup of dead skin cells and dirt ... a facial massage exfoliates the skin and returns it to its natural glow.

A facial massage session usually lasts only about 20 minutes, because if administered for longer than that, the muscles in the face can be stretched. This is especially true for people with sensitive skin, which is prone to damage or irritation if too much pressure is used during the facial massage. Because different skin types require different types of lubricants, your massage therapist will examine your skin prior your facial massage to determine what type is best for you. Clients who have very oil skin may not require the use of oils or lubricants at all.

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:

Reduction of the appearance of horizontal wrinkles and lines: forehead and nose.

Unclogging of pores and reduction of blemishes: nostrils.

Prevention of wrinkles and sagging muscles: mouth and cheeks.

Reduction the appearance of bags under your eyes: the area around the eyes.

Prevention of sagging skin and increased muscle tone: chin and neck

Massaging to stimulate other body parts: ears.

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.
