Facials Are the New Massage — And You Can’t Tell Me Otherwise
Some folks don’t like massages—and I get it.
The idea of undressing, lying face-down, and letting someone touch you from head to toe might not feel like your thing.
But have you ever had a facial… for the massage of it?
I’m not talking about the products or the glow (although, yes please). I’m talking about that moment… when a warm towel hugs your face, your jaw relaxes for the first time all week, and you forget what day it is.
That moment is holy.
There’s a certain kind of magic that happens when someone takes time with your face—not just to cleanse it, but to care for it. The slow strokes across your cheeks, the lifting movements along your jawline, the gentle pressure around your scalp and temples... It’s not just skincare—it’s soul care.
For people who don’t like full-body massage, a facial offers a beautiful alternative.
You’re still receiving. Still relaxing. Still surrendering the stress you’ve been carrying in your face (yes, your face holds tension too).
And let’s be real—most of us haven’t been touched with care in a while.
When you allow someone to hold space for you—even for 60 minutes—you start to understand something simple and spiritual:
Life is short. Letting someone else in to share in your care isn’t weakness. It’s wisdom.
So if massages aren’t your thing, no judgment. But maybe give a facial a chance.
Not just for the skin benefits (though we love those too)...
But for the pause.
The presence.
The permission to be cared for, gently and fully.
Because your face deserves more than a quick wash.
It deserves to be held.
