How to Massage the Face Muscles: Pinpointing Muscle Groups for Massage

Video Transcript

Hi! On behalf of expertvillage.com, my name is Jean Hurley from Siegels Day Spa in Cottonwood, Arizona and we’re here today to show you some tips and techniques on pinpointing muscle groups for a massage. Moving into the face, just to look at a face you can see some muscular definition anyway, but this is a good time to have the client help you by moving the jaw. You want to like chew, you can see the muscles how they move. It’s going to be a simple in the process there of following the muscles with your fingers. You can feel each muscle’s movement. If you want to frown, there you go; the muscles move themselves. The muscles are very small on the face. If you scrunch your forehead, you see the wrinkles along the forehead. Those are muscle groups again elongating. Massage attachments are here along the nose, above the nose and into the temporal lobes here. You can feel them kind of I guess like little worms. They’re not particularly tough muscles where they feel like cable; they’re sort of meaty and into the jaws here. You feel an attachment here around the cheek bone and into the mouth, the mandible and stretching there around the ears, then at the hairline.
