Face Contouring & Anti-Aging Massage Tutorial

Posted in: Epic Tutorials, Natural Treatments

Hey every­one!

I came across a post from Sesame at Viva­Woman back in Decem­ber, where she talked about a pop­u­lar Japan­ese face con­tour­ing mas­sage by Yukuko Tanaka. I was fas­ci­nated with this because 1. I love the Japan­ese cul­ture, food, his­tory, and com­plex­ions :D , and 2. I love massages.

The mas­sage is cred­ited for reduc­ing and pre­vent­ing wrin­kles, improv­ing sag­ging skin, min­i­miz­ing pore size, elim­i­nat­ing puffy eyes and under-eye bags, and improv­ing skin tone and skin texture.

I researched for sev­eral days hop­ing to find Eng­lish trans­la­tions of the videos to share with you, but there were none at all, only bits and pieces of Eng­lish tran­scripts with some pictures.

So I had the videos trans­lated for you guys (a won­der­ful man named Szu did an incred­i­ble job, and refused any pay­ment for his trans­la­tion work, I’m extremely grate­ful to him), and I worked until 4 am this morn­ing to do the Eng­lish sub­ti­tles and Eng­lish voiceovers. And voila! I have posted them on my YouTube chan­nel today so you can start doing this 3-minute anti-aging massage!

Enjoy!

    Just had to post a big THANK YOU to you — and to Szu — for your superb work. I was hav­ing so much trou­ble fol­low­ing the orig­i­nal videos because I wear glasses, and had to keep tak­ing them off to do each mas­sage„ and then put them back on to check and re-check the tech­nique for each mas­sage. The glasses and the for­eign lan­guage combo wasn’t work­ing for me at all! Now, I can HEAR how to do the mas­sage cor­rectly, and can leave the glasses off while I fol­low along with your voiceover. Bril­liant. Thanks so much.

    thanks so much for trans­lat­ing this! On another web­site, I saw that you and your friend had been so kind to do this and I wish to thank you. BTW, you have gor­geous skin and an amaz­ing web­site full of great nat­ural infor­ma­tion! What do you use to keep your skin so lovely?

    Paola, thank you so much for the won­der­ful com­ment. :) To answer your ques­tion, I can do a detailed post on it if you’d like.

    Yes, please do! I’m sure it would ben­e­fit a lot of us that are try­ing to take bet­ter care of our­selves nat­u­rally. Specif­i­cally, I am 31 years old and already get­ting the dreaded nasi­o­labial folds and fur­rows (too much laugh­ing and too much wor­ry­ing) but I dont want to get Botox. I know no top­i­cal will get rid of these, but maybe tak­ing bet­ter care of myself, and my skin will make them less not­i­ca­ble. Also, I love your posts about just tak­ing bet­ter care of your­self to help main­tain good skin. Thanks again!

    Saw this on your YouTube site and just wanted to drop by here to say a big THANK YOU! I nor­mally just mas­sage my face any old way at night but this will help me stick to one regiment.

    Again, thank you bunches, your effort in help­ing us all look younger is much appreciated!!

    Many peo­ple need that kind of mas­sage and that’s very relax­ing. And also I really appre­ci­ate your effort trans­lat­ing these video. Great job!
