Kobido is one of Japan’s oldest facial massage techniques, with a history spanning more than five centuries. For generations, this exceptional treatment was regarded as an exclusive art, passed down from master to master as a refined practice where both precision and intuition play an equally important role.
This traditional Japanese facial massage combines a variety of techniques, ranging from slow, soothing movements to fast, rhythmic strokes that stimulate the skin and deeper facial tissues. Working across the face, neck and scalp, the treatment helps improve the appearance of the skin while supporting its natural balance, leaving the complexion looking refreshed, revitalised and beautifully radiant.
