The Face Yoga is a facial workout developed by Fumiko Takatsu, former Japanese teacher now a real star in USA.
It is a set of daily poses and exercises that originate from yoga and which aim at the health of the face and body alongside mental well-being.
The muscles of the face are almost 60 and exactly like those of the body they need to be trained and toned. The result is immediately brighter and more oxygenated skin and, in the medium term, a less tired face with reduced wrinkles.
WHAT IS FACE YOGA
This particular gymnastics acts through exercises and breathing, reducing tension and relaxing the muscles.
Fumiku Takatsu's treatment is able to stimulate circulation and oxygenation of the skin and at the same time gives self-esteem and love for oneself.
Just one daily 10-minute session to firm up muscles and tissues, making it possible to compensate for loss of volume, to reduce wrinkles and dark circles and to make the face younger.
