Brush facial massage: benefits, stages of technique with brushes, video

The history of brush massage, which is also called Egyptian, goes back to the distant times of Ancient Egypt. It is associated with the legendary beauty of Queen Cleopatra. It is believed that this massage was secretly used by the queen to maintain the beauty of her face. And knowing about the beauty of Cleopatra, we can conclude that it is very effective.

Besides Egypt, this massage is extremely popular among Asian women. They believe that with its help, the protective energy called “Zii” is activated.

History of brush massage

The secret history of the invention of brush massage is rooted in the distant past. It is known that noble Egyptian women used this method to preserve youth and attractiveness. Perhaps it was part of magical rituals, used to achieve a relaxed state that clears the mind of extraneous thoughts. The mysterious Cleopatra, whose fame for her intelligence and beauty has survived thousands of years, willingly resorted to this method of facial care. That is why this massage is also called Egyptian.

Now this method is widely used in Asian countries, whose residents are confident in the healing properties of such effects. They believe that energy is concentrated under a person’s skin, protecting a person from evil and disease. When stimulated with gentle brushes, this energy is activated, the person receives a vital impulse, and the skin acquires a healthy, natural color.

Preparing for the session

Brush massage is a gentle but powerful way to work with the face. This technique is taught by qualified specialists.

Before the session, it is necessary to establish a direct relationship between the master and the patient. To do this, they communicate with each other on distant topics for half an hour, creating a mood and a comfortable psychological atmosphere of confidential contact, conducive to complete emancipation.

The essential point is the immediate preparation of the face. To do this, the skin is cleaned and allowed to dry. When going for a massage, you should not apply decorative cosmetics to avoid clogging your pores.

Only after the client has completely relaxed does the master begin work. The procedure takes place while lying on a couch or sitting in a chair. The cosmetologist conducts a session while sitting behind his head. Do not start the massage until all the muscles relax.

Reviews

If you are only focused on a cosmetic result and for this reason you decide to try massage with brushes, then it is better to go to a cosmetologist for regular procedures. Because brush massage is COMPLETELY different. A nice smoothed face, melted wrinkles, tightened skin, etc. visible results - all these are just inevitable “side effects” of massage with brushes. The main work and the main result are deeply internal processes. You suddenly notice that your neck has completely relaxed and there is no trace left of the headache. Or how, with a gentle movement of the brush, you release something inside and smooth it out. Or somehow the spine feels very stable, balanced and correct, and suddenly good support and confidence arises in oneself and in life. Well, for those who are ready to go into the deep layers of their personality, brush massage can open this door. I don’t find an explanation for all this, but I write these words quite consciously and responsibly - as a client who has completed a course of brush massage, and as a professional psychologist. Thank you very much Nastya! It is unforgettable and remains inexplicable. Yes, the face is good, by the way.

Olga

As a practicing massage therapist and energy therapist, I am extremely picky about the techniques and performer, and about the ecology of the process. Brush massage performed by Anastasia is what suits my high demands. Magic movements gently and imperceptibly dismantle into atoms, turning off control and allowing the body to take a break from the mind, and the soul to fly freely. Nastya protects the process like a baby. Thank you, dear man! I recommend it to everyone not only as a cosmetic treatment, but primarily as a relaxation and restorative procedure. You can not only relax, but also learn a lot of interesting things about your body by immersing yourself in the process. Or maybe even go beyond it. Enjoy!

Execution technique

About ten brushes of different hardness and shape are used. However, there are masters who prefer to work with a large number of tools in order to convey a complex range of sensations to the client. Brushes made from natural fur are most often used, but synthetic tools are used for allergy sufferers. The gentle work of the brushes is complemented by cool jade roller massagers, which smoothly roll along the massage lines, removing fine wrinkles and smoothing out folds.

Meditative music, sounds of the forest, and birdsong will help you relax. Preferably soft lighting, you can use lamps with aromatic oils. The client closes his eyes and tries to clear his mind of unnecessary thoughts. Light circular movements are made, smoothly and gently. They start with light, barely noticeable touches, which gradually become more intense and noticeable. The brush moves over the skin without resistance, it should be dry and fluffy. The preparation ritual and the entire session take approximately one and a half hours.

The massage is performed with brushes strictly along the massage lines - the lines of least stretch of the skin, which can be studied in detail in this article.

What happens at the energy level

Impact on muscles with brushes refers to the practice of relaxation and meditation, in which the master guides his client. He performs the functions of a protector, protecting his client from worries and troubles, removing traces of sadness and adversity from his soul and body. With gentle contact with fluffy fur, the client is reunited with his own essence. A deep dive into the subconscious restores harmony and helps the soul find peace and tranquility.

The procedure is completed with a half-hour rest: do not use a mobile phone or other gadgets. A smooth exit from a relaxed state will consolidate the positive effect.

A noticeable result occurs after about the fifth session.

Brush facial massage on your own - is it possible?

Many ladies are interested in whether they can massage their face and décolleté with brushes on their own. Undoubtedly, this is possible, but the relaxing effect will be noticeably less. Unfortunately, touches that you do yourself do not give the same effect as the actions of another person, so it will be difficult to achieve a state of detachment and purity of thoughts. Reviews from those who have practiced the technique themselves also say that when changing instruments there will be no effect of surprise or contrast.

But the session at home will still have a positive effect on the skin. The massage should be done in a calm, pleasant environment, after a relaxing shower or bath. Beautiful music and a lamp with aromatic oils will help you focus on pleasant sensations and detach yourself from problems.

You need to lie on your back or sit in a deep, comfortable chair, close your eyes, and slowly begin to draw circles on your face and décolleté. The techniques do not require strong physical effort or the use of dangerous tools; movements must remain smooth and gentle, so it is impossible to harm yourself during self-massage.

Details

The procedure has a number of contraindications

For example, you should not massage your hands if the pain in the joints is acute and severe, or if you have fungal or other skin lesions. It is also not recommended to resort to massage if you have psoriasis, dermatitis, oncology, or diabetes. In case of viral and bacterial diseases, or increased body temperature, it is better to postpone the procedure until complete recovery.

If you have experienced a hand injury, then before starting a massage, you need to consult a doctor . You can massage your arms and hands only after tissue restoration.

Important Tips

If you perform the procedure yourself, pay attention to the following:

The skin does not stretch if you use oil. 3-5 drops are enough for the entire treated area. It is advisable to use non-comedogenic formulations (for example, argan oil). Water-based skincare products are not suitable as they are quickly absorbed.

At the end of the procedure, the remaining oil is wiped off with a dry cloth. Do not leave the product on the skin, especially around the eyes - this will lead to swelling.
Apply only light pressure to the scraper. If you overdo it, hematomas and burst capillaries will appear on your face. Both are unaesthetic and contradict the very idea of Guasha massage: to remove swelling and make the skin tone even.
You should always follow the pattern of movements during massage. Do not move the scraper against the massage lines - this will create new wrinkles and swelling.
After each session, the plate must be washed with soap. If this is not done, the oil and bacteria from the stone will enter the pores of the skin and cause acne.
Movements during the session should be intense to accelerate the flow of blood and lymph.

The first 2-3 times Guasha massage may be painful. The pain is due to the fact that the muscles are not accustomed to such an impact. After a few sessions, the discomfort will go away and the procedure will bring only pleasant sensations.

Massage of arms and hands as prevention and recovery

Proper massage will not only relieve tension in the hands, improve the condition of the joints, but also affect certain organs:

Thumb – liver, bronchi, lungs. Massaging this area allows you to improve blood circulation in these organs, as well as relieve a sharp attack of coughing.
Index finger – gastrointestinal tract. Stimulating your fingertip can help reduce toothache. The closer to the base, the further along the digestive tract we move. That is, if you need to improve the functioning of the stomach, you need to massage somewhere in the middle of the finger.
The middle finger is the circulatory system. Those who have vascular diseases can use massage to improve their condition. Massaging the middle finger is a kind of signal to the brain.
The ring finger is the nervous system. This finger is the least mobile. If you influence it correctly, you can lift your mood, increase resistance to stress, and normalize your emotional state.
Little finger – small intestine and heart. The massage of this finger is carried out very carefully. He is the smallest and most fragile. If you gently stimulate the point near the nail, you can improve intestinal motility and get rid of constipation.

This massage is an excellent prevention of various diseases of internal organs, promotes rapid recovery of the body after illness, accelerates regeneration and normalizes functioning.

Many active points are located on the palm itself. Massaging your palms fills you with energy and normalizes your heartbeat.

Indications for hand massage

Massage will help avoid joint problems for people who constantly type, as well as assemblers, writers and students during lectures. We often don't notice how much stress is placed on our hands and fingers until pain appears or our hands become cramped from fatigue.

Regular hand massage is recommended in the following cases:

Chronic joint pain;
Fatigue , constant fatigue;
Decreased mobility of the hands or fingers;
Long-term work involving hands (typing, weaving, handling objects, etc.);
High load on the limbs.

It is also recommended to massage the hands and fingers of children under 3 years of age more often, as the points on the palms and fingers stimulate brain function. This massage helps the child develop normally and better assimilate information.
