Chiroplastic facial massage - rejuvenation without surgery

How is chiroplastic massage different from other types of massage?

“Hiro” is translated from Greek as hand, so chiromassage is performed exclusively with the hands, without the use of outside tools. For this type of facial massage, the entire hand (pads, fingers, base and edge of the palm) can be used.

Unlike other types of massage, Spanish combines classical and oriental techniques. It affects all layers of the skin (epidermis, dermis, subcutaneous fat layer and facial muscles).

However, the procedure is aimed not only at the physical, but also at the psycho-emotional state of a person, since it is carried out according to the principle “an action that does not bring pleasure will not be able to give a positive result.” Thanks to the use of various techniques and techniques, each session is different from the other and does not cause addiction to a person.

Who is it recommended for?

The chiromassage technique is offered for use by anyone who has:

• rosacea, manifested by dilation of subcutaneous vessels in the form of red “stars” or a network of capillaries;
• loss of clarity of the contour and oval of the face with the appearance of sagging skin;
• decreased level of elasticity of the epidermis;
• loss of muscle tone;
• age-related skin changes;
• the appearance of swelling;
• insufficient oxygen supply to cells;
• chronic fatigue and constant depression.

We also bring to your attention our partner, where you can sign up for a massage in the city of Nikolaev.

The technique has no age group restrictions, but it is recommended for everyone who has reached the age of thirty-five, since it is at this time that the skin begins to fade and lose its elasticity.

Cosmetologists' opinion

Daria Konovalova, massage therapist

My regular clients quite often come to me for a Spanish facial massage. I believe that it is truly one of the most effective for combating premature aging and also provides great therapeutic benefits. I also recommend using it in combination with a vacuum massage, which uses special jars with suction cups. It is worth noting that when choosing a specialist, you should rely on reviews from friends and acquaintances, since improperly performing a massage can not only be ineffective, but also cause serious harm to the face, making the skin even more flabby and wrinkles deeper and more noticeable.

Victor Pavlenko, massage therapist

In our clinic there are a lot of people who want to try Spanish facial massage, which they read about on the Internet. However, many are irresponsible about this, since they come with completely different diseases, which are contraindications, and insist on a session. Not every specialist will be able to approach their work responsibly and refuse a client, so before attending any procedure, I recommend consulting with your doctor about the possibility of carrying out this procedure.

Effect after a course of massage

Thanks to the mechanical effect on the skin, it is cleansed of dead particles. Accumulating on the surface, they affect the clogging of pores and the appearance of rashes.

Stimulation of muscle tissue normalizes blood circulation and improves lymph flow, thereby neutralizing stagnant processes. The effect on the nervous system improves the patient’s emotional background.

Such actions lead to the following results:

• normalization of metabolic processes,
• removal of toxins,
• reduction of swelling,
• smoothing skin texture,
• launch of regenerative processes,
• improvement of complexion,
• increasing skin elasticity, tightening contours,
• reduction of wrinkles,
• reduction of fatigue.

Indications

• Changes in facial contour, the appearance of wrinkles and the presence of other signs of aging.
• Acne and acne.
• Changes in complexion, appearance of age spots and redness on the face.

• Loose skin of the face and neck.
• Cuperosis.
• The appearance of a double chin.
• The appearance of dark circles under the eyes.

How many sessions are needed to achieve the goal, how often to repeat the course

All terms of time and frequency are set by a specialist depending on the age and condition of the skin. One procedure can last from 15 minutes to 2 hours . After the first session, changes in the color and contour of the face will become noticeable.

However, a deeper result will be obtained after completing the entire course. The minimum number of sessions is 7-10, the maximum is no more than 15, they are held 2-3 times a week.

Chiroplastic massage is recommended at any age. At 20-30 years old, 1 course per year will be enough. After 30, it is recommended to repeat courses twice a year (but no more than 3 times) with maintenance procedures in between.

Is preparation necessary?

Massaging using the chiroplasty method should invigorate, eliminate congestion in the body, relax the muscles of the body, and clarify the train of thought.

When starting the procedure, special attention should be paid to the space of the room in which the therapeutic massage is planned. It should be light, clean and warm. A cool room will not allow the patient's muscles to relax to the required extent.

Since any massage causes a decrease in body temperature, it is better to provide a heater in advance. It is important that there is no draft in the room and that the circulation of fresh air is stable. To cover already massaged areas of the body, you can provide warm terry towels to keep the muscles warm.

Before the session, the massage therapist himself must be prepared, so he should relieve psychological stress and physical tension. To do this, just lie or sit and listen to relaxing melodies. The healer should not be focused on everyday thoughts.

Before the massage procedure, the patient must remove all jewelry, including earrings. It is important that he removes his contact lenses first, otherwise they will interfere with normal relaxation. It is better not to keep the patient busy with conversations, irritating his psyche. It is enough to turn on calm, relaxing music that allows you to meditate and think about something good.

What cosmetic products are used during the procedure?

To cleanse the skin, you can use oil solutions or micellar waters.

It is not recommended to use products with alcohol, as this can increase skin dryness. Sometimes after cleaning, an antiseptic compress with a decoction of herbs (chamomile, calendula, sage) is used.

During the massage, oils (olive, almond, corn, grape seed, shea, coconut and others) can be applied to the skin to improve contact. They can be heated to increase efficiency.

Instead of oils during massage (especially for oily skin), you can use other products, such as serum, talc, cream.

After completion of the procedure, ice cubes, a mask and cream can be used at the client’s request.

Preparatory stage

Regardless of which Spanish massage technique you choose, be sure to cleanse your face of any remaining makeup before performing the procedure. When performing self-massage, you can try holding your face in a water bath to steam it with herbal decoctions and open the pores. Also remember to cleanse the neck, back of the head and shoulders. Such manipulations are extremely necessary, because during movements, various bacteria and microorganisms can spread throughout the skin and penetrate deeply into its layers, which will only worsen the situation.

Some cosmetologists apply a special antiseptic compress for 5–10 minutes. As a rule, sage, chamomile, and string are brewed. The temperature of the decoction used should not be very high - 35–45 degrees.

The dermis is then coated with oil to make the hands glide better over the skin. The movements cannot be strong, because preliminary relaxation of the muscles is required. Therefore we recommend using:

• aroma oils;
• yoga;
• classical music;
• lit candles.

During the massage, the master reaches the bone tissue through special kneading.

Chiroplastic facial massage technique

Chiromassage involves the use of different massage techniques, during which the entire hand is used. The main ones:

• kneading - patting and stroking movements;
• slight tingling;
• wave-like vibration effect.

Massage should be performed along massage lines.

Movements can be more intense near the lips and nose, while around the eyes manipulations should be carried out as gently and easily as possible.

In the zygomatic areas, it is recommended to apply pressing movements for direct massage of blood vessels. It is advisable to finish the massage with light tapping and/or stroking. A standard Spanish massage session includes several stages:

1. Cleansing the skin of remnants of cosmetics and secretions, followed by application of a composition that enhances contact with the skin during the procedure.
2. Relaxation of muscles with stroking movements, affecting the neck, shoulders, oval contour, cheeks, temples, brow ridges, forehead.
3. Lymphatic drainage, in which soft and slow, tapping or wave-like movements are carried out along the lines of lymph drainage.
4. Lifting by pulling small areas of the skin. Most often it is performed alternately on both sides of the face.
5. Removing any remaining oil or cream.

Contraindications and side effects

Like any cosmetic procedure, Spanish massage has a number of contraindications, which you must familiarize yourself with before performing it. Chiroplastic massage is not recommended for:

• open lesions of the skin,
• active rosacea,
• clusters of protruding moles,
• oncology,
• skin diseases,
• the presence of ulcers, deep pimples,
• allergies,
• exacerbation of chronic diseases,
• for problems with the facial nerves,
• recent chemical peelings or cosmetic injections.

In addition to contraindications, the procedure may have side effects. With the right technique they are rare. This is mainly minor redness in people with very sensitive skin. They go away in 15-20 minutes.

However, incorrect implementation of the procedure can lead to:

• painful sensations,
• hematomas,
• skin deformations,
• deterioration of blood circulation,
• increased skin dryness,
• problems with the facial nerves.

Precautionary measures

This type of massage has very few contraindications. They come down to various skin problems:

• eczema and dermatitis;
• neoplasms, as well as papillomas and moles;
• herpes;
• wounds and microcracks;
• allergic rash;
• inflamed acne.

It is also not recommended to carry out the procedure during and after acute respiratory infections, influenza and other infectious diseases. Recent injections of botulinum toxin and fillers do not give the green light for Spanish therapy. It is necessary that at least 3 weeks have passed since the administration of the substance.

As for women who are in an interesting position, such a massage is even welcome. Very often during pregnancy, not only the legs, but also the face swell. Removing toxins through the pores minimizes the load on the kidneys, ensuring comfortable fluid removal from the body.

If massage is performed correctly, no complications arise. When a non-professional works, or contraindications were not taken into account, complications may occur due to the exacerbation of existing diseases.

Thus, chiromassage, or Spanish massage, is an excellent opportunity to eliminate numerous problems on the facial skin associated with age-related changes.

After massaging, the skin becomes elastic and acquires an even color, toxins are eliminated, and you begin to feel great.

In addition, during such a massage, the hormone of joy - endorphin - enters the blood, so you will definitely recharge with energy and remain in a good mood for a long time.

Customer Reviews

Margarita, 52 years old

You always want to look young, but subjecting yourself to injections and plastic surgery is a little scary. Therefore, in pursuit of youth before radical methods, I decided to try Spanish massage.

I didn’t particularly hope for results, but the effect of the procedures surprised me. My face has become toned, the contour is more pronounced, the skin is more elastic, wrinkles are no longer so noticeable. In addition to everything, this massage is wonderfully relaxing, which is very pleasant after a hard day at work.

Alina, 33 years old

I tried chiroplastic massage for the first time on vacation. One evening, my friend and I decided to pamper ourselves and signed up for a session. The sensations were so pleasant that we decided to do the procedure before leaving home.

Since we saw our reflection in the mirror several times a day, we didn’t notice any significant changes. But our loved ones are the opposite. Friends and colleagues made many compliments, and even the cosmetologist noted the tightened oval and smoothing out of small wrinkles. Now I do the course regularly 2 times a year.

Sveta, 45 years old

Before Women's Day, many beauty salons offer discounts on procedures. So I decided to take this opportunity and try a chiromassage procedure that was then unknown to me. The relaxing atmosphere and smooth movements of the master breathed life into me. After the procedure, I felt rested, so a few days later I decided to go for a massage again.

After the second session, the first results were already noticeable: swelling decreased and complexion improved. So I didn’t stop and took the full course, which I don’t regret one bit.

Cost of one session

It is believed that after a course of procedures, the effect of the massage lingers for several months , so paying for a course of chiromassage is a profitable investment in your beauty. Since the Spanish massage technique is very difficult to repeat at home, the salon will charge an average of 2000–2500 rubles for one procedure.

But for women who are inclined to experiment with their bodies, you can try massage yourself. To do this, you should watch a couple of videos of different techniques and choose the most optimal one for yourself. Learn to feel your face, and then even without special courses you will be able to comprehend the basics of Spanish massage.
