Remedial Facial Massage

our Sculptural Buccal Technique®, a trademarked method created by our founder, Kate Michelmore after decades of industry experience, and the power of sculpting massage to lift, sculpt, and plump your skin for a naturally elevated look.

Elevating Rituals Beyond Routine

Kumo® Facial Rituals invite a sensory exploration—a fusion of meticulously crafted formulations, prepared in our on-site lab, with intentional, integrative wellness practices.

Each experience is woven with moments that transcend routine, transforming self-care into a quiet ritual of reflection and renewal.

Within these rituals lies the depth of our NeuroGlow® protocol, an immersion into the language of neurochemistry. Through the alchemy of touch, we harmonize neuropeptides and ease the nervous system, cultivating a lasting calm from within.

Complementing this is our signature Buccal Massage, a sculpting journey that reaches into the facial structure itself, releasing tension and restoring vitality from the inside out.

Kumo® offers an experience that is both grounding and elevating— a quiet homage to beauty as a daily, personal ritual.

Here, wellness-minded beauty becomes an invitation, a mindful pause crafted for everyone, every day.

    Grounded in science and backed by clinical data, NeuroGlow® integrates advanced neuropeptide stimulation to promote skin healing and reduce the impact of stress on your complexion.

    Each of the protocols we share—NeuroCalm, NeuroGlow, and NeuroClear—is a testament to the power of subtle intervention. Through targeted movements and intentional touch, we support the release of oxytocin, the quiet modulation of cortisol, and the activation of natural endorphins.

    We aim to cultivate a state of wellbeing as deep as it is enduring.


    By targeting cortisol levels and activating neuropeptides, like endorphins and serotonin, we reduce inflammation and restore hormonal balance, with research showing a 31% cortisol reduction after just one session.

    The treatment begins with an opening ritual to engage body and mind using deep pressure, incorporating touch from head to toes, focusing on areas that store tension.

    Following with a Deep cleanse using our Bioactive+ Cleansing Oil, and gentle herbal steaming to enhance cellular renewal. We then apply nutrient-rich serums and masks, complemented by a sculpting massage that boosts lymphatic flow and releases facial tension.

    The facial then concludes with a deep tissue massage to trigger endorphin release and further stimulate the vagus nerve, leaving both your skin and body deeply grounded and radiant.
