What to expect:

  • Charlotte will start with a short meditation to slow down and feel present.

  • She will then briefly share her knowledge around facial massage - the benefits, different types, best oils to use, the healing nature of touch.

  • We will then move on to showcase different techniques and practise. Don’t worry if you’re on your own. We will all be practising on ourselves. Charlotte will show us techniques to use in our day-to-day routine and also techniques to target specific issues, like a headache, blocked sinuses and more.

  • Finally, we’ll finish with a blissful savasana combined with light touch.

  • Treats and Timmy Smith mocktails to follow because this is what we love to do!

Benefits of facial massage:

By definition, facial massage is a practice from ancient Chinese medicine meant to stimulate circulation in the skin by manipulating and rubbing skin on the face to drain the lymphatic system. While they did not know anything about the lymphatic system, the collagen matrix, or our other modern understandings of the face—they intuitively developed techniques as part of a ritual or meditative practice. So, what should you expect when you incorporate even a couple of minutes of massage in your daily routine?

  • Increased circulation

  • Improved elasticity and collagen production, reducing fine lines and wrinkles

  • Releases muscle tension in the face

  • Stimulates the lymphatic system

  • Temporarily lifts skin
