Holistic facials
Experience the latest in skin science and the art of ancient rituals to feel beautifully radiant
This is more than just a facial, it’s a journey of sensation, deep restoration and skin rejuvenation.
For a transformative, deeply relaxing yet energising experience, I offer in-person holistic facial massage treatments from my studio space at the Ikigai Well-being Centre in Whitstable, Kent.
My approach to skincare fuses ancient healing philosophies with modern high performance.
Treatments are rooted in traditional Chinese medicine healing methods gua sha, facial cupping and acupressure, which are combined with deep tissue sculpting massage and LED light therapy, the latest in skin science.
Facial massage manipulates the skin, fascia, connective tissues and muscles to physically uplift and revitalise your skin and face. The results can be incredible.
By applying eastern healing philosophies it’s possible to improve your modern way of being.
With treatments bespoke to you and the individual needs of your skin, each experience will leave you feeling cared for and blissfully radiant.
From my signature facial to a skin consultation - rest assured you're in safe hands.
Your skin is an organ of your body, so we nourish it with skin food. All treatments use planet friendly and natural hand selected products from local independent brands such as Faversham based Floragy, Nini Organics, Neighbourhood Botanicals and Pai.

Sculpt + Lift Facial Massage
90 minutes // £95
A 90 minute deep facial massage with buccal massage to lift your contours and give you an uplifted feeling, literally!
There’s a good reason this technique is known as a natural facelift.
In this longer treatment we work deeply into your facial muscles, with a massage technique known as a natural facelift, it really is that good. Your jaw line is defined, cheeks plumped, eyes opened and lifted.
Results are immediately visible which you’ll be able to maintain with simple home practices and supercharge with regular treatments.
Buccal massage is a sculptural massage technique pioneered by Yakov Gersovich. The muscles in your mouth will be massaged internally to ease jaw tension and lift and sculpt the muscles.
This is for you if you clamp down on your jaw and need tension relief or you simply crave an uplifted feeling.
Combined with high performance natural skincare that is food for your skin : double oil cleanse, brightening mask, deeply nourishing serum, skin enriching massage oil and facial cream or balm suited to your skin type.
