Facial massage is a manual therapeutic technique that works with the skin, soft tissues, facial muscles, and the lymphatic system. Through controlled manual movements, it influences microcirculation, supports lymphatic drainage, regulates muscle tension, and improves overall skin condition.
This training focuses on conscious manual work based on the structure and function of tissues. The program includes both theoretical and practical preparation, enabling safe, consistent, and purposeful performance of facial massage in professional practice, as well as informed selection of techniques according to skin type and the client’s individual needs.
