How to Do Shiatsu Eyebrow Massages

Video Transcript

RICHARD NEIL: So now I'll be working on Sarah's eyebrows and I have actually positioned myself so she can rest on my legs. Make it easier for me and she's higher up and that way I don't have to reach down as far. So starting here, right here where the eyebrows first start, I'm creating these little mini-circles here putting a little bit of pressure down on the eyebrow. Gonna hold a lot in her eyebrows. She's young so she doesn't have that furrowed brow yet but--do that about three times. It's also a very active area of the eyes themselves so what I do is I'll use my pinkies and close up her ears and rest my thumbs on her eyes themselves sort of closing off the other senses temporarily. And you can actually feel her eyeballs are moving. I mean it's very hard to relax the eyes but there's something soothing when you place the thumbs on the eyes, closed eyes, it's very relaxing to the eyes themselves. But you can almost feel the eyes pulsing and then relaxing. You can hold that for a minute or two. And then I'll find these points along her temples. Just that point, the key point where people always show where they have a migraine, headache just where that sideburn ends. Massage that area. Make little circles and you can just hold it there for a while. And you can feel that pulse. So we'll return with a little bit more work on the face.
