Therapeutic Facial Massage
A Therapeutic Facial is essentially a head, neck and shoulder massage that includes hydrating and nourishing skincare. The focus is face massage with special attention to the forehead and jaw to help release tension in your face, jaw and neck.
The Therapeutic Massage on the other hand is a whole body massage.
Massage for Face, Neck & Jaw Tension
Is Therapeutic Facial Right for You?
You may be a good fit for this service if:
You hold a lot of tension in your jaw or face
You clench your jaw or notice tension around your temples
Your neck and shoulders are frequently tight
You experience tension-related headaches
Your face feels tight, tired or tense
You're looking for massage for jaw or facial tension
You want focused facial massage rather than just a few minutes of massage during a traditional facial
You want your skin to receive nourishing and hydrating care at the same time
Massage First, Skincare Second
This isn't a traditional facial with a little face massage added in.
The massage is the focus of this facial. I use therapeutic techniques throughout the face, jaw, scalp, neck, shoulders, chest and arms, with extra attention to the areas where you tend to hold tension throughout the entire facial.
Often times this type of tension in the face not only is painful but it contributes to dry skin, puffiness, lines and wrinkles. This session will help improve circulation, puffiness and hydrate your skin.
As a massage therapist and an esthetician, I created this session so you can have the benefits of focused tension relief and a nourishing skin treatment at the same time.
A softer, more relaxed feeling through your face and jaw
Less tension through your face, neck and shoulders
A relaxed scalp and upper body
Clean, hydrated and refreshed skin
A healthy-looking glow
The feeling of having received both meaningful massage and facial care in one appointment

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a massage or a facial?
Both.
Think of it as a therapeutic upper-body treatment with professional skincare. You'll receive focused massage for your neck, shoulders, scalp, jaw, and face along with a customized facial.
Will my skin still get the benefits of a facial?
Absolutely.
Your skin is thoroughly cleansed, gently exfoliated, hydrated, and protected using professional skincare products selected for your skin type.
How is this different from a regular facial?
Facial massage is a major part of the service to help with tension relief instead of just for relaxation and lymphatic flow.
Is the massage painful?
No. The approach is therapeutic but not aggressive. Pressure is adjusted to your comfort level, and the goal is to help release tension without leaving you feeling beat up afterward.
Leave Feeling Better Than When You Arrived
If you clench, always feel like your face is tight and your shoulders are in your ears, this session will help it all melt away.
