Kobido is an art of touching that originated in Japan in the 15th century.e century. Originally, it was reserved for the women of the imperial court, who were keen to preserve the radiance of their complexion without the use of make-up. Today, this time-honoured treatment is practised in only a handful of spas in France.
The technique is based on acupressure and manual drainage. It works deeply on the muscles and tissues of the face, without the use of any products or needles. Each movement follows a precise pattern, passed down through a tradition handed down from generation to generation.
Visit Spa Castellane, this treatment finds a setting that truly does it justice. The space is intimate, nestled at the foot of the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence. The silence of the Gorges du Verdon accompanies each session and prolongs the sense of calm long after the massage is over.
Is Kobido painful?
No, the pressure is precise but never uncomfortable. Some points may be more sensitive - jaws, temples - but the session remains pleasant from start to finish.
What is the difference between a Kobido and a traditional beauty treatment?
Kobido is a therapeutic facial massage, not a cosmetic treatment. It uses manual pressure and drainage techniques, inherited from centuries of Japanese tradition.
How many sessions are needed to see results?
A visible effect from the very first session: a fresh complexion and relaxed features. A course of 3 to 5 sessions is recommended for lasting effects on firmness and radiance.
Can I do a Kobido after a day in the mountains or a hike?
Yes, it's even an excellent idea. The sun and wind in the mountains tire the skin; the Kobido drainage is very regenerating and prolongs a day in the gorges.
Is Kobido suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes. No chemicals are used – just the practitioner’s hands. It is a gentle technique, suitable for both sensitive skin and firmer skin.
Here’s how a Kobido session unfolds, from start to finish.
Kobido is suitable for all skin types, for both men and women, whenever you wish to give your face a moment of relaxation. No products are applied, so those with sensitive or reactive skin can enjoy the treatment without any concerns.
It is also a much-loved ritual after a day’s hiking in the Gorges du Verdon. The wind, the sun and the physical exertion take their toll on one’s features. Kobido drainage then restores a sense of lightness to the face and relaxes the jaws, which are often tense from the exertion.
Before an event — a wedding, a birthday, or simply when you want to feel good — just one session is enough to see a visible difference. For long-lasting results, a course of several sessions is recommended.
