There are several methods of implementationtherapeutic massage. And one of them is the Jacquet massage technique. It was developed by the French dermatologist Jacquet (1860-1914). Jacquet massage stabilizes blood circulation, resolves purulent foci, and also normalizes metabolic processes. That is, this massage is used as a resorption agent for various skin diseases. Jacquet massage technique is also aimed at normalizing the sebaceous glands and improving skin microcirculation. Jacquet massage is performed on the face, back, thighs, chest. Jacquet massage is a technique that is used without applying creams or oils, but with the use of talc, a small amount of which is sprinkled on the skin. Therapeutic massage according to Jacquet, as a rule, is performed more intensively than cosmetic. This type of massage is used to solve such problems as circulatory disorders, excessive sebum secretion and acne treatment.

Technique of carrying out of massage

The Jacques massage technique isis quite difficult to perform. This method consists of rhythmic pinching, which is done with the thumb and index finger, during which areas of the skin are grabbed. Such pinches have an excellent effect on both the superficial layer of the skin and the deeper layers - the subcutaneous tissue. It is necessary that such pinching be strong enough. That is, with the pads of the index and thumb, the skin is grabbed in its entire thickness in the area that is being treated, and then with quick and short movements it is squeezed in all directions and thus the entire surface being treated is bypassed. Usually, the contents that are squeezed out of the acne look like a cheesy mass or a spiral rod with a black head, which is a sebaceous plug that is heavily contaminated with dust settling on the skin. Pinching should alternate with vibration and light stroking. If suppurating acne predominates on the skin, then Jacquet massage is contraindicated. When performing the Jacquet massage technique, it is necessary to remember the directions of the skin lines. Such movements stimulate the normal activity of blood flow and sebaceous glands, due to which they prevent excessive sebum secretion, which is usually the cause of acne. This massage technique makes it possible to affect those layers of the skin that are not affected by conventional massage (in which only the superficial layers of the skin are massaged).

Schedule of massage sessions

Sessions of therapeutic massage according to Jacques the first daysshould be done daily, then the frequency of procedures should gradually decrease and reach no more than two or three procedures per week. A session of this massage should last no more than ten minutes. A longer duration is strictly prohibited here. And in order for you to be able to achieve an optimal result, you will need to have at least ten sessions. It is this number of sessions that helps to obtain a high-quality result. Of course, it is possible to perform this massage a little longer than ten procedures. Quite often, Jacquet massage is used after such a cosmetic procedure as skin cleansing, since it promotes its rapid recovery and healing. Keep in mind that this procedure can only be trusted to an experienced specialist, because the technique of performing this massage is quite complex and necessarily requires skills and special knowledge.

Facial massage

Jacques facial massage is usually used foryoung women who suffer from oily seborrhea of ​​the skin of the face with acne, stagnant spots and infiltrates, as well as if the tone of the facial muscles decreases sharply. When performing a facial massage according to Jacquet, as well as on other parts of the body, talc is applied beforehand. The duration of this procedure is about five to six minutes. In total, twenty procedures are performed two to three times a week. It is best to cleanse the face before each such procedure, during which the skin is treated with a two-percent solution of salicylic alcohol. Facial massage consists of three types of movements (stroking, kneading, vibration). The difference from other types of cosmetic facial massage is in the very nature of the kneading movements (deep and pinching, which allow you to squeeze out fat).
