Clients are just loving my new lymphatic face and buccal massage treatment!


This specialized facial technique is called Neolifting, and it works with the soft tissues of the face, neck and cranium, while encouraging gentle osteopathic adjustments and breath work.


It often surprises people how much tension they feel in their face. But our face contains dozens of muscles which can carry great amounts of tension from the variety of emotions we experience day to day. Especially if we are going through difficult periods in our life.


There is a close relationship between emotions and muscle activation.


For example our eyes crinkle when we are happy and our brows furrow when we are upset. The prolonged tension in our facial muscles can intensify our emotional state, and vice versa. Relaxing these overly tense muscles can help to break this cycle and contribute a positive influence to our mental state. When the nervous system feels safe, the face responds.


The Neolifting technique gently works the muscles of the face both externally and internally using a series of non-invasive repetitive massage strokes to:


  • Reduce tension in facial muscles

  • Improve the overall appearance of the skin

  • Help muscle recovery

  • Restore facial posture by balancing three horizontal lines of the face: chin, cheek, and forehead.

  • Eliminate spasms and blockages

  • Relieve TMJ tension, headaches, and sinus pain

  • Promote lymphatic drainage

  • Provide passive fitness of facial muscles


Due to its holistic approach, the Neolifting technique sees the relationship between anatomy, fascia, lymphatics, breath and nervous system regulation working together as an essential component to health and wellness.
