Marino cautions that facial massage doesn’t replace a face lift, “however, it is an alternative for those who are not interested in going under the knife,” she said. The rationale behind the study stems from the fact that a major part of facial aging is due to the loss of fat and soft tissue, which leads to sagging and exaggeration of wrinkles. If we can lift weights at the gym and enlarge our biceps, why couldn't the same be done for muscles in our faces, thereby filling out those contours to create a more youthful countenance? By massaging pressure points along these meridians, any blockages impeding the flow of energy are cleared to restore proper function and balance. Also incorporating the Indian Ayurveda healing tradition, Eastern Facial Massage focuses on the three upper Chakras. Chakras are specific points within the body that serve as energy-flow intersections. By treating the upper Chakras the crown, third eye, and throat, the mind becomes quiet, enabling the body’s prana energy to focus on healing.
