DIY ayurvedic facial massage

You may have heard of foot reflexology, the deliciously relaxing therapy where different areas of the sole of the foot are massaged to stimulate and revitalise areas of the body. But did you know that the face is also rich in reflex points that are linked to our organs and body systems – so massaging your face can be enormously therapeutic (as well, of course, as being soothing and relaxing). The Natural Health Hub’s reflexologist Ally Brown specialises in a natural facelift massage using reflexology and an award-winning anti-ageing elixir. Here our video shows how, in lockdown, you can massage your own face utilising some of the principles Ally uses for her natural facelift…

People come out radiant from Ally’s natural reflexology facelifts! Benefits include: 

  • increased flexibility in the facial muscles
  • more defined features such as cheekbones and jaw
  • improved muscle tone generally
  • reduction in the appearance of fine lines and puffiness, and reduction in tension
  • plus all-round general improved complexion, not to mention the pure relaxation of the treatment.

None of that is quite possible right now of course while we are in lockdown. But here Mary Dagliesh, vice-president of the Federation of Holistic Therapists, demonstrates some ayurvedic face massage tips that you can do on yourself at home – they’re simple techniques to help ease tension, and look and feel fresher.  

 

Facial reflexology & natural face-lift massage

For her facial massage Ally uses Zone Facelift Facial Elixir, winner of the Beauty Shortlist Awards 2018. This anti-ageing elixir contains amethyst crystal and medicinal plants used by shaman and Native American healers, along with a myriad magical ingredients to rejuvenate the skin naturally.

Great for headaches, anxiety, depression, stress, sleep deprivation and more!

 

Ayurvedic medicine

Ayurvedic medicine is one of the world’s oldest holistic healing systems, developed more than 3,000 years ago in India. It’s based on the belief that health and wellness depend on a delicate balance between the mind, body, and spirit. Its main goal is to promote good health, not fight disease. Which are of course exactly the principles we are passionate about at The Hub.

I have reposted the video that goes with this article from The Federation of Holistic Therapists so it is easier to find and share -:) https://www.fht.org.uk/system/files/field/article-files/it_summer_18_53_self-help_marma_face_massage.pdf The article and video show you how to look after your skin by giving yourself a simple face massage – it's simple to do and can help you look and feel great.
