We tested for you a treatment combining Kobido, Face Sculpting and Shiatsu for the face

The treatment imagined by Mari Depoulain is much more than a Kobido massage. It's a true ritual, thought out down to the smallest detail, a suspended moment, imagined for our skin and its needs, combining the principles of Kobido with Face Sculpting and Shiatsu facials.  

Renowned as a "natural facelift", Kobido works like a meticulous dance of fingers and palms over the face to relax features, firm skin tissue, relax muscles and smooth expression lines and wrinkles. Efflements are combined with percussive, smoothing and kneading gestures. Each part of the face is carefully massaged using a thousand different techniques, to stimulate microcirculation and lymphatic flow, drain metabolic waste products and improve cell nutrient supply. The result: plumped skin that regains firmness and elasticity, smoothed features and a luminous glow. 

Under her expert, passionate hands, Kobido takes on a whole new dimension, as Marie has succeeded in extracting the very essence of this renowned facial, and adding her delicacy, precision and holistic expertise. She combines all her knowledge of the skin, fascia, muscles and bone structure to serve each skin tone, revealing the natural radiance of each skin rather than transforming it. What's more, thanks to her expertise in facial shiatsu, she adds a powerful wellness dimension by applying gentle, precise pressure along the energy meridians of the face, skull, neck and shoulders to release accumulated tension.

The aim of this treatment? Harmonize body and mind for a moment of intense relaxation, while naturally revitalizing the skin.

Beyond the deep relaxation they provide, Marie Depoulain's signature treatments offer a range of long-lasting, visible benefits:

• Renewed radiance: stimulation of microcirculation and lymphatic drainage revives the complexion, reduces puffiness and reveals a natural glow.

• Plumped-up skin: alternating smoothing, kneading and targeted pressure, massage boosts collagen production and restores tissue tone and elasticity.

• Relaxed features: freed from muscular tension and tenseness, the face is freed from stress and signs of fatigue, for a smoother, more rested appearance.

• Body-mind balance : the integration of facial shiatsu promotes energetic harmonization, relieves tension and creates a deep sense of well-being.

• Tailor-made care : each step is adapted to the skin's morphology, tissues and specific needs, for a protocol that evolves with time and the seasons.

This exceptional treatment combines skin cleansing, exfoliation, mask and deep massage with aesthetic efficacy and a sensory journey. After 1 h to 1 h 30 in her expert hands, skin appears firmer, softer and infinitely calmed, while the spirit awakens light and refreshed.

Expect to pay €160 for the 60-minute Signature Care, €170 for the 70-minute Detox Care and €240 for the 100-minute Grand Soin.
