LESSON in
MASSAGE
M
ASSAGE, as any dictionary will inform you, is "scientific rubbing and manipulation of the body which strengthens the tissues and restores 'tone generally, acting as a mild and thorough exercise
to the patient."
If you apply this same scientific rubbing and manipulation to the face it also has a strengthening effect on the tissues, restores tons, and exercises the muscles of the face in much. the same way as maskage exercises the muscles of the body.
Once you have learned the massage movements you can apply skin food much more effectively to your face than if you merely rub it in roughly or carelessly.
CERTAIN movements are suitable to different parts of the
face.
For a "STROKING" movement you use the second and third fingers of each hand and even gentle strokes. The pressure must be very light and superficial.
This is useful for forehead massage. Place the second and third fingers of each hand in the centre of the forehead and work up towards the hair line- and out towards the temples with firm strokes, or from the nose out across the checks out towards the cars with lighter strokes,
The "ROTARY STROKING" movement la used around the eyes and t must be very light. The second and third Angers are placed at the outer corner of the eye and worked in gentle sliding movements round and round, under the eyes, towards the nose, and out over the eyebrow back towards the temple. "TAPPING" la given with all the finger tips, which are worked alterna- tively and continuously. This is useful for stimulating a complexion that has become sallow and needs toning up. It can be used over the checks, chin and forehead.
THE "TREMBLING VIBRATORY" movement needs a good deal of practice and takes the place of the electric vibrator used in beauty parlours.
For this you place all the fingers and the thumbs of each band into as small a circle as possible, and bring both circles down on the sisin in a trembling vibratory movement. You can use this for the cheeks, chin and jaw line. Start at the centre of the chin with each hand and work out along the jaw line towards the ears and out from the nostrils over the cheeks towards the

"FRICTION" is used for general stimulation, and is very pleasant if you apply it to the back of your neck and along the top of your shoulders. Use the pad of your thumb and your first three fingers together.
