Connective tissue massage is a special technique that improves the skin, restoring its radiance. The massage enhances blood circulation and activates metabolism. As we age, collagen and elastin decrease in everyone. It is particularly suitable for loosening scar tissue and improving or reducing sagging skin, poor circulation, aging skin, wrinkles, or acne.

WHY IS A CONNECTIVE TISSUE MASSAGE EFFECTIVE?
BETTER BLOOD CIRCULATION
A connective tissue treatment works by stimulating the deeper layers of connective tissue, resulting in improved blood circulation.
​
This increased blood flow allows oxygen and nutrients (including the nutrients from your skincare) to reach the cells more easily.
​
This not only promotes overall skin health but can also aid in addressing certain skin issues, such as a dull complexion.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
From what age is a connective tissue massage suitable? A connective tissue massage can be suitable for various ages.

What does a connective tissue massage do for my skin? A connective tissue massage has various positive effects on the skin, thanks to the targeted stimulation of the deeper connective tissue and underlying muscles. Here are some of the benefits that a connective tissue massage can have for your skin: Improved circulation: Connective tissue massage stimulates blood circulation in the skin and underlying tissues. This increases the supply of oxygen and nutrients to the cells, which can lead to healthier and more radiant skin. Collagen production: The massage movements stimulate fibroblasts to produce collagen. Collagen is an essential protein that provides the skin with firmness and elasticity. This can result in firmer and younger-looking skin, while reducing fine lines and wrinkles. Increased elasticity: The massage can enhance skin elasticity by stimulating elastin fibers, which can help reduce skin sagging. Reduction of adhesions: Connective tissue massage focuses on releasing adhesions in the connective tissue. This can restore the freedom of movement of muscles and tissues, which is beneficial for overall flexibility and posture. Lymphatic drainage: The massage techniques can improve lymphatic drainage, allowing toxins and fluids to be more efficiently removed from the body. This can help reduce swelling and create smoother skin. Stress reduction: A connective tissue massage stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system, resulting in deep relaxation. This not only positively impacts the mind but can also reduce tension in the body. Overall skin health: Connective tissue massage can enhance overall skin health by balancing oils, reducing inflammation, and promoting healthy cell renewal. Improved skin texture: The combination of collagen production and improved circulation can noticeably smooth and even out the skin texture. In conclusion, a connective tissue massage can rejuvenate your skin, make it firmer, and promote a healthy, radiant appearance. The final results may vary depending on your skin type, age, and the frequency of treatments.
How often should I repeat a connective tissue massage? The connective tissue massage is specifically designed to release adhesions and fluid buildup in the skin. If you are new to this treatment, it's normal to need a few sessions initially to see results. Generally, it is recommended to undergo a series of 3 to 6 treatments, spaced about a week apart, to fully benefit from the treatment. To maintain the achieved results, we recommend repeating the treatment 3 to 4 times a year. Whether you choose to have an individual connective tissue massage or add it to your regular facial treatment, consistency can help maximize the benefits over time.
Is a connective tissue massage painful? A connective tissue massage can sometimes be experienced as uncomfortable or mildly painful, especially in areas where there are adhesions, tension, or knots. This is because the massage targets deeper tissues and connective tissue, which can be more sensitive than superficial massages. However, the level of discomfort varies greatly from person to person and depends on factors such as your personal pain threshold, skin sensitivity, and the degree of tension in your muscles and connective tissue. While some people perceive the massage as deep and relieving pressure, others might find it somewhat more painful.
When is it better to avoid a connective tissue massage? Here are some cases in which you should exercise caution or avoid a connective tissue massage: - Rosacea, also known as 'couperose': Consult with a doctor before considering this massage, as it can exacerbate rosacea. - Active skin infections: If you have active skin infections, such as fungal, bacterial, or viral skin rashes, it's advisable to postpone a connective tissue massage. The massage could spread or worsen the infection. Open wounds or cuts: If you have open wounds, cuts, or abrasions, a connective tissue massage can disrupt the healing process and increase the risk of infection. - Poor general health: If you suffer from severe health issues such as heart problems, blood clotting disorders, severe hypertension, or other conditions, it's wise to consult with a doctor before considering a connective tissue massage. - Pregnancy: While some pregnant women might benefit from massage, caution is advised with connective tissue massage, especially during the first three months of pregnancy. Always consult with your midwife or doctor before scheduling a massage during pregnancy. - Cancer or recent cancer treatments: If you have had or currently have cancer, or have undergone recent chemotherapy, radiation, or other treatments, you should consult with your treating physician before considering a massage. - Medication use: Certain medications, such as anticoagulants (blood thinners), can increase the risk of bruising. Discuss your medication use with the massage therapist before undergoing treatment. - Extreme sensitivity to pain: If you are very sensitive to pain, a connective tissue massage might be uncomfortable or painful. It's important to communicate your boundaries and consider opting for a milder massage technique. Consult with our massage therapists if you are taking any medication.
You might consider a connective tissue massage if you experience: - Uneven redness in the face after a workout - Sensitive skin - Subcutaneous inflammations - Accumulation of fluids and waste products - Possible changes in hormone release - Skin sagging - Dull, lackluster complexion - Reduced absorption of skincare products.
