Promotes Circulation

Your skin is your body’s largest organ. If you suffer from poor circulation, it presents as dull, pale or discolored skin. Your circulatory system carries nutrient-rich blood (oxygen, vitamins, and minerals), throughout the body while simultaneously removing byproducts and waste. One way to improve circulation is exercise – another is massage.

A study by the University of Illinois at Chicago found massage therapy improves general blood flow, and massage is a standard part of a facial treatment. Facial massages promote circulation, which promotes healthy, vibrant skin.
