An Exceptional Treatment by Céline Marengo

Céline Marengo is no ordinary esthetician; she views the face as a mirror of the soul and approaches each treatment as an opportunity for true inner care. Initially destined for a career in cardiology, Céline charted a different course, building an impressive journey through prestigious training. She worked for the La Prairie brand, then explored energy healing, Ayurvedic practices, and mastered the ancient Japanese Kobido technique of manual care. Her fascination with the face and inner being shines through in every treatment, offering an approach that is both innovative and soothing, where the face and soul find rare harmony.

Kobido: An Ancient Art to Revitalize the Skin

More than a simple facial massage, Kobido is an art—a journey into Japanese traditions where every gesture reawakens the body’s energy and the face’s radiance. Performed with millimetric precision, this ritual combines deep, rhythmic movements to provide a natural lifting effect, redefining facial contours and pushing back the signs of aging. Unlike conventional cosmetic approaches, Kobido works on the deeper layers of the skin, toning and softening while releasing deep-seated tension.

For Céline, the effects of Kobido are immediate and remarkable: reduced wrinkles, renewed radiance, and restored firmness. This choreographed-like treatment goes beyond the epidermis, revitalizing the face by stimulating collagen production and restoring the skin’s natural suppleness and tone.

Kobido is also an energy-balancing therapy. In this tradition, the face is seen as a map where emotions and accumulated tension are imprinted. The massage activates strategic pressure points, akin to those used in acupressure, to release blockages and promote the smooth flow of vital energy.

Each Kobido session becomes a moment where both skin and spirit find calm, where stress fades, and well-being takes over. It is a true symphony for the body and soul, a journey back to one’s essential harmony.
