Japanese Facial Massage Training

2-day training · August 2026, Morges Led by Anna Makarkina Bochatay · Face Massage Trainer & Kobido Specialist for massage therapists, beauty professionals, and health practitioners

Kobido is one of the oldest and most sophisticated facial massage techniques in the world originating in 15th century Japan. More than an aesthetic treatment, it is a complete therapeutic approach: lifting, draining, relaxing deep facial tension, and restoring energetic circulation through the face.

What you will leave with Full technical mastery of the Kobido protocol. A treatment you can offer from the very next day. Certification of participation.

Who this is for Massage therapists, naturopaths, aesthetic professionals, TCM practitioners, and any health professional wanting to integrate a high-value, results-driven facial therapy into their practice.
