About Holistic Facial Massage
Holistic Facial Massage is my signature treatment that combines Ayurvedic and Japanese sculpting facial massage techniques, head massage, lymphatic drainage, Somatic Experiencing, and abdominal massage (for two hour treatments).
The connective tissue of the face, neck and head can become constricted and fixed from lack of dynamic movement, stimulation, and as a result of holding stress and unexpressed emotion. Quoting William Shakespere, "God have given you one face, and you make yourself another!"
Working with this connective tissue, and the deeper layers of tissue and muscle is important because it directly impacts the stagnation that results from lack of mobility in this area. This brings a greater flow of blood and nutrients to the face, resulting in more supple, hydrated, and glowing skin. This treatment also has a profound impact on the nervous system, as a result of working directly with the vagus nerve which is highly innervated in the face, neck and chest. With the addition of abdominal massage (for 2 hour treatments), you will receive a truly nourishing treatment that will leave you feeling relaxed, rejuvenated, and grounded.
"I was blessed to have Ffion lay her soft gentle hands on my skin. I'm a new mother with not much time to spare so this was the ultimate treatment. My facial was out of this world. Truly relaxing and I felt comfortable enough to drift in and out of sleep. This has been the best facial I've ever received. Then Ffion gave me an abdominal massage and worked on releasing pressure under my ribs after being pregnant. Both of these treatments are very different yet extremely beneficial. Her work is caring and kind. Ffion is present for you and your needs and she walks you through her process as she goes along . My experience from start to finish was beautiful and Ffion is a warm gentle ball of energy"
