Deep Renewal Manual Facial
A therapeutic, all-hands facial — skin health and nervous-system calm in one session.
🧴Your visit, step by step · what's included
- 1Consultation and skin analysis — we read your skin and your stress level, tailoring this hands-on ritual to both
- 2Manual cleanse and warm compress — warm towels open the pores and melt tension while the skin is cleansed entirely by hand
- 3Lymphatic and facial massage — rhythmic hand movements drain puffiness, boost circulation and release the jaw, brow and neck tension you've been carrying
- 4Extractions as needed — any congestion is cleared gently by hand, only where your skin actually needs it
- 5A treatment mask with pressure-point relief — while the mask works, pressure-point massage on the scalp, hands and shoulders takes relaxation deeper
- 6Hydration and SPF — deep moisture and sun protection complete the renewal, no machines involved from start to finish
✦Benefits to expect
- Released facial and jaw tension
- Improved circulation and glow
- Deep relaxation and calm

Frequently asked questions
Is there any downtime?
None. This is a relaxing, restorative treatment; skin may look lightly flushed afterward and settles within an hour.
How often should I book it?
It's wonderful as a periodic deep reset — many clients book it seasonally or monthly alongside lighter maintenance facials.
Who is it best for?
It's great for moderate congestion, dehydration, and facial-muscle tension, and for anyone who prefers a purely manual, no-device facial. Let us know your sensitivities.
How is it different from a standard facial?
It uses absolutely no machines — results come from skilled manual cleansing, extractions, and lymphatic and myofascial massage over a full 90 minutes, making it deeply relaxing and restorative.
What should I do afterward?
Stay hydrated, keep actives paused for a day or two, and wear SPF. The relaxation benefits often last as long as the skin results.
