The benefits of body massage are well-known, but facial massage proves just as beneficial, though not as well-known.

Many people believe that facial massage helps prevent wrinkles and bad skin. It prevents tension in the jaw and temple area, too, which can help reduce headaches. Any good facial massage should also include a neck massage and both should really be part of the overall massage experience.

Slightly warmed oil that doesn’t irritate the skin should be used, along with firm but gentle strokes to improve circulation and relax facial muscles.
