History of Kobido
The kobido was born in 1472 during a competition between two of the greatest masters of Anma* (precursor of shiatsu) in an inn in Suruga, south of Mount Fuji.
This competition lasted for months without being able to designate a winner. The two great masters then combined their talents in order to create a new house called Kobido.

The traditional way to beauty.
Kobido is an art from a sophisticated & ancestral Japanese tradition which at the time was exclusively reserved for the Empress & her courtesans: the secret of their great beauty.
The kobido is extremely technical, it crosses the centuries, adapts to the world and to the times but above all retains its fundamentals.
His techniques are so numerous that we like to say that there are 1000 Kobido for every 1000 faces.
Kobido techniques
The ancestral techniques of Kobido are unique, centered on a special treatment based on percussion,offlexionsandhand realignment. Depending on the part of the face where they are applied, there are several variants that alternate diametrically opposed gestures. They can be extremely light, followed or preceded by others that are deeper & slower or even faster & aerial. It is precisely this diversity of gestures that makes it an exceptional massage, both authentic & original, with surprising effectiveness.

Understanding a face as a whole
Under the skin of our face hides anetwork of muscles linked together by tendons or attached directly to the skin itself. Each contraction will thus solicit it and modify its expression.
Beneath this network of fibers is ourbone structurewhich, let's not forget, also ages, thus rectifying the architecture of our face.
And then when we are young, the skin is at its zenith:The lipid layers (Bichat balls),energy & protective reserve make the face plump and plump, very smooth but over time, these fatty tissues melt away & thus change the features of the face.
Facial beauty & health
It is commonly accepted that aging depends on deour genetics but external elements linkedlargely to our modern lifestyles accentuate its process: Excessive exposure to the sun, harmful food hygiene, stress, lack of sleep, cigarettes, various pollutions...
Taking care of the health & beauty of your face naturally is above all a holistic approach in which the kobido massage will find its full dimension.
