Kobido is a form of touch therapy practised in the 15th This treatment originated in Japan. Originally, this technique was reserved for the women of the imperial court, who wished to maintain the radiance of their complexion without the use of artificial means. Today, this centuries-old 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 tissue of the face, without the use of products or needles. Each movement follows a precise pattern, handed down through a tradition that has been passed down from generation to generation.
In Spa Castellane She finds this treatment to be the perfect setting for her. The space is intimate, situated at the foot of the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence. The tranquillity of the Gorges du Verdon accompanies every session and prolongs the sense of calm long after the massage.
Is Kobido painful?
No, the pressure is applied with precision, but is never uncomfortable. Some areas may be a little more sensitive — the jaws, the temples — but the treatment remains pleasant from start to finish.
What is the difference between a Kobido treatment and a traditional beauty treatment?
Kobido is a therapeutic facial massage, not a cosmetic treatment. No products are used; instead, it involves manual pressure and drainage techniques that stem from a centuries-old Japanese tradition.
How many sessions are needed to see results?
From the very first session, there is a visible effect: a fresh complexion and relaxed facial features. A course of 3 to 5 sessions is recommended for lasting results in terms of firmness and radiance.
Can I have a Kobido treatment after a day in the mountains or a walk?
Yes, that’s actually an excellent idea. The sun and wind in the mountains can take their toll on the skin; the Kobido drainage treatment has a deeply regenerative effect and provides a pleasant way to round off a day in the gorge.
Is Kobido suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes. No chemical products are used; only the practitioner’s hands. It is a gentle technique, suitable for both sensitive skin and firmer skin.
The following describes how a Kobido session unfolds from start to finish.
Kobido is suitable for all skin types, for both men and women, as long as you simply want to give your face a bit of a rest. No products are applied, so even people with sensitive or reactive skin can enjoy this treatment without any worries.
It is also a much-loved ritual after a day’s walking in the Gorges du Verdon. The wind, the sun and the physical exertion leave their mark on the facial features. The Kobido drainage technique restores a feeling 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 because you want to feel good – just one session is enough to see a noticeable difference. For long-lasting results, a course of several sessions is recommended.
