Each technique addresses specific facial concerns and objectives.

• Kobido Initial : An ancestral Japanese massage that has become iconic. It acts as a natural facelift while stimulating vital energy, providing an immediate sense of well-being.
• Gua Sha : A key facialist tool used to sculpt facial contours, soften the appearance of wrinkles, and enhance skin radiance.
• Facial Stretching : A true workout for the face, targeting each muscle to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while helping to plump facial features.
• Facial Detox : A lymphatic drainage-inspired technique that helps brighten and purify the skin. Signs of fatigue are reduced, leaving the face soothed and refreshed.

These techniques complement one another within a holistic facialist approach and can be integrated into a progressive training pathway.

After completing these four techniques, you can access the Enhancement and Personalisation Training program delivered in Paris. This course teaches you how to combine the different approaches to create bespoke facial massage protocols tailored to each client's needs.

You will also learn how to perform a detailed morpho-facial assessment and provide personalised self-massage recommendations.
