For millennia, massage has been used as a treatment. It provides relaxation and releases tension on various parts of the body. Massage is the manipulation of muscle to bring a desired result on the body part by practitioners or your own hands. Facial skin needs special care, such as selecting the skincare product based on skin type and conditions, diets, and facial massage. Facial massage is a crucial practice to keep facial skin healthy, bright, and young. It reduces fine lines, wrinkles and improves skin appearance over time. It is accompanied by various accessories such as stones, clothes and needles, which promote healthy skin and enhance the appearance of the skin.
Facial massage improves blood circulation and causes the widening of blood vessels (vasodilatation). The expanding of the blood vessels helps the blood to flow faster and it is easier for the blood to reach the superficial parts of the skin, causing bodily fluid – oxygen and nutrients to reach the face. The toxic chemicals are excreted during these processes – the pores unclog and increase the absorption of skincare products.
