JUST a seven-minute walk from the hustle and bustle of Ealing Broadway station is triyoga’s sixth London studio.

We sent reporter Lucrezia Alfonsi to have a skin hug facial…

“I had a beauty treatment more commonly known as a face hug massage with therapist Joanne Bale.

Through the use of reflexology techniques combined with Frankincense oils, rose and lavender oils, small crystal balls used as face rollers and face cupping, I was treated to an extremely relaxing experience.

I felt pampered throughout thanks to the music and the atmosphere it created around me, to the point that a one-hour massage felt like just 20 minutes.

This treatment not only relaxes you, but also has a rejuvenating effect as it reduces wrinkles thanks to face reflexology and face cupping which sculpt your jaw and work around your eyes.

But does this face massage really work? As I tried it myself I can confirm it does.

After the treatment I felt relaxed, my face looked brighter, softer and depuffed, my mind was free from negative energies and I felt more energetic.

As soon as the treatment ended I told Ms Bale how I felt and she confirmed that was exactly the goal of the face hug massage.

What’s more is that even once it ended I continued to benefit from the treatment throughout the day and in the following day.

And as long as you keep yourself hydrated, stay away from alcohol and caffeine, this will make you fall asleep early at night, making the treatment useful for those who suffer from insomnia.”
