Kobido massage is based on alternating fast and slow movements of the hands; it includes patting, tapping and pinching. It is an intense massage that requires the specialized skills and knowledge of a physiotherapist.
Stages of massage:
- Muscle relaxation - calm, gentle movements designed to induce a state of relaxation.
- Manual lifting - stronger, faster movements with skin kneading and pinching. This stage is designed to stimulate blood microcirculation and the production of collagen and elastin by the skin.
- Lymphatic drainage - slow, circular movements performed according to the direction of lymph flow toward the heart. Lymphatic drainage reduces swelling and promotes the removal of toxins and impurities.
- Acupressure - applying pressure to specific points on the face.
Kobido massage can be used by everyone, as long as there are no contraindications. The treatment is especially recommended for people who notice the first signs of aging in their skin.
