This ancient Japanese manual technique combines elements of massage, acupressure, and lymphatic drainage. It stimulates collagen and elastin production, improves circulation, and relaxes tense muscles in the face, neck, and décolleté. Kobido massage has a firming and rejuvenating effect, prevents the formation of facial wrinkles, soothes headaches and bruxism, and promotes relaxation and well-being.
This ritual proceeds in stages, each of which serves a specific purpose in preparing and stimulating tissues. The first step in a Kobido massage is a thorough cleansing of the facial skin of makeup, impurities, and sebum, which provides a foundation for manual work and ensures optimal skin adhesion. The massage therapist then moves on to gentle, relaxing movements designed to relax the superficial layers of the facial muscles. This stage prepares the muscle structures for deeper manual work. Stroking and rubbing techniques are employed. Deep tissue and lifting massage is a key part of the treatment, utilizing fast, rhythmic, and variable massage techniques, including kneading, pinching, and vibration. The massage therapist works both on the skin’s surface and in the deeper myofascial layers. This stage also includes intensive lifting techniques and manipulation of acupressure points. The next stage involves lymphatic drainage using gentle, rhythmic movements to improve lymph flow. This technique focuses on the natural flow of lymph from the face, neck, and décolleté. The treatment concludes with a moment of calm, with the massage therapist once again using gentle, relaxing movements that stabilize the effects of the massage and help the body transition into a state of regeneration.
The Kobido massage is an excellent choice for those seeking natural methods of facial care and lifting without the intervention of aesthetic medicine. It is particularly recommended for those with signs of fatigue, facial stress, muscle tension, swelling, or loss of skin firmness. It is also effective for those working at a computer, prone to neck and jaw tension, and those suffering from bruxism – by working on the masseter muscles, it helps reduce tension and its consequences. The Kobido ritual is also ideal for those seeking to combine deep relaxation with effective care. Thanks to its universality and gentle nature, the massage is suitable for both women and men, regardless of age or skin type.
Kobido massage offers a range of aesthetic, health, and relaxation benefits. It acts as a natural facelift – improving muscle tone, smoothing fine lines, contouring the face, and giving the complexion a radiant appearance. It promotes blood and lymph circulation, which can reduce puffiness, supports detoxification and natural skin regeneration, and also relieves muscle tension and headaches. Additionally, it has a soothing effect on the nervous system – helping to calm the mind, reduce stress, and induce a deep state of relaxation, restoring inner balance.
Kobido massage is an intensive manual treatment that combines quick, precise, and deep techniques for working with facial muscles. Although incredibly relaxing, it requires the skin and tissues to be in good condition, so it is not suitable for everyone. Contraindications to the massage include active skin inflammation (such as
The 90-minute Kobido massage at the Thai Bali Spa is enhanced with the application of a cream mask, which is an integral part of the ritual. The treatment begins with a thorough facial cleansing, which not only removes impurities but also symbolically ends the pace of daily life, opening space for a deeper, more mindful experience. The next step is a precise Kobido massage – a technique combining various manual movements that stimulate circulation, work on deep muscle layers, and influence the skin’s structure. After intensive manual work, a regenerating cream mask rich in active ingredients is applied. As the facial skin absorbs the beneficial substances, the massage therapist shifts attention to other areas – the hands, feet, or scalp – providing comprehensive relaxation. The conclusion of the treatment brings intense regeneration, rebuilding the skin’s hydrolipid barrier, and a deep state of relief and harmony.
