Japanese Lifting Massage is a structured manual therapy system rooted in traditional Japanese techniques, based on precise movement sequences that affect the tissues of the face, neck, and décolleté. The technique includes both relaxing and stimulating phases, influencing facial muscles, the nervous system, blood circulation, and lymphatic flow.
The course covers facial and skin anatomy, the structure of Japanese Facial Massage, and principles for selecting techniques based on tissue condition. You will learn how to control pace and intensity, organize the treatment session, and combine Japanese Facial Massage with other professional procedures in clinical practice.
The practical section focuses on performing Japanese Lifting Massage step by step, therapist ergonomics, and maintaining a coherent treatment structure that can be consistently and repeatably implemented in a professional setting.
