Preparing for the massage3:52
Begin by cleansing with gel across the face, neck, chest, and décolletage, remove it to ensure a clean skin surface, then perform the dry myofascial massage with gloves.
Diaphragmatic breathing4:52
Diaphragmatic breathing starts myofascial face massage, guiding the client's breath to activate respiratory and lymphatic flow, with slow movements that can boost lymph up to 40 times.
First stage.6:08
Begin the first stage of myofascial face massage by pressing across the face toward the lymphatic system, using gentle squeezing along Langer's lines and shallow ear region pressings.
Cleavage3:50
Master the myofascial face massage technique for the cleavage and neck, using a roller along three lines toward the axillary lymph zone, with left-to-right mirroring and gradual pressure.
Neck4:43
Neck myofascial massage targets the platysma in three levels near the submandibular space and chin; use a roller for four to six reps, twisting when needed, and avoid the thyroid.
Submandibular space6:23
Learn myofascial face massage techniques for the submandibular space to address sagging, sculpt the lower face, and refine facial contours with ear-to-tragus roller movements.
The lower and the middle thirds of the face8:48
Demonstrate myofascial face massage on the lower and middle thirds of the face, using rollers from center to ear and from lips to the nasolabial triangle to shape contours.
The cheeks7:14
Perform myofascial face massage on the cheeks with upward twists, snail-shaped movements, and thumb presses to form the angle of youth while draining subclavicular and supraclavicular lymph nodes.
“Fifth level”7:08
Explore the fifth level, the medium and upper third of the face, including the nose, eye contour, nasolacrimal system, nasolabial triangle, and glabella, with slow stretching, twisting, and squeezing.
Periorbital region5:57
Perform shallow movements in the periorbital region to manipulate small vessels and fascia. Advance forehead work from the hairline along the eye contour with circular presses and three-line slide rollers.
Final stage.8:00
Perform the final stage of myofascial face massage with slow scalp movements and gentle hair stretching, then massage the chin, cheeks, and neck, finishing with light cream and sun protection.

Description

Myofascial massage was originated by Ida Pauline Rolf. It is also known as the 3Т massage – Tension, Traction and Torsion, i.e. Compressing, Twisting and Stretching.

It is based on the combination of deep (aerobic) respiration and short isometric exercises, which are focused on straining one or several muscle groups. The main purpose of this procedure is to eliminate connective tissue disorders, relieve blocked muscles and achieve absolute muscle relaxation.

The course includes a set of practical guides and training videos on the successful use of myofascial facial massage techniques to restore elasticity, skin tone, correct a double chin, facial contours, smooth out facial wrinkles, and reduce the manifestations of rosacea.

The manipulations with connective tissues using certain techniques can lead to the following significant improvements of physiological body processes:

• Muscle spasms are relieved - muscles become properly shaped and any spasms or blockages are removed;

• Facial contours are improved and become symmetrical, expression lines are reduced;

• The circulation of blood is enhanced, which results in better metabolism and the supply of oxygen and nutrients to the cells;

• The flow of lymph is accelerated - breakdown products are faster removed from the body;

• Facial complexion and skin condition are improved;

• Excess fluids are removed, swelling is eliminated and pores are contracted;

• More elastin and collagen are produced;

• Tissue hydration is improved – the skin becomes moistened.

The effect produced by myofascial massage is often compared with circular lifting. Perfect contours, beautiful smooth and radiant skin, and lesser wrinkles are the inevitable effects of this procedure.
