Booked together with a facial rather than on its own. Choose your facial, then add this when you book or mention it when you arrive.

Most facial massage is there to help the products go on and to feel pleasant. Meridian sculpting is doing something narrower than that, and it is worth knowing which one you are booking.

The short answer
BoJing is a traditional Chinese bodywork technique adapted for the face. The therapist works along the facial meridians by hand and, where it helps, with a smooth stone tool, holding pressure at specific points rather than gliding over the skin. People generally come to it for held tension in the jaw, temples and brow, and for the lifted, less puffy look that follows a session. It is added to a facial and takes 25 minutes.

What happens in the session

Your therapist starts at the neck and collarbone rather than the face. That order is deliberate: the drainage routes run downward, so the lower channels are opened before anything is moved toward them. Work then moves up through the jaw, the cheek, the area around the mouth, and finishes at the temples and brow.

The pressure is firmer than a standard facial massage and stays in one place longer. On a tight jaw the first few points can be tender, and that tenderness is the useful part. Say so if it crosses from tender into painful, because the pressure is adjustable and there is nothing gained by enduring it.

Some of the work is done with a gua sha stone. That is the part guests most often recognise, and it is used for the long draining strokes along the jaw and cheek rather than for the point work.

The eye version is shorter and gentler, worked with fingertips around the orbital bone, and runs 15 minutes.

Who it suits, and who it does not

It tends to suit people who:

  • Clench or grind, and carry it in the jaw and temples.
  • Notice puffiness in the morning that takes hours to settle.
  • Want a visible lift for an event without anything injected or cut.
  • Spend the day at a screen and hold tension in the brow.

Skip it, or tell us first, if you:

  • Have had injectables in the treatment area in the last two weeks.
  • Have active, inflamed acne where the work would be done, since pressure over it is not helpful.
  • Bruise very easily or take blood thinners.
  • Have had recent facial surgery or dental work that is still healing.

Be clear-eyed about what it does. The lift is real and it is visible, and it is also temporary — a few days, longer if you come regularly. Anyone describing facial massage as permanent restructuring is overselling it.

How to book it

Meridian sculpting is an add-on, not a standalone appointment. Book the facial you want first, then add sculpting to it. It pairs naturally with the La Mer and Valmont facials, where the treatment is long enough that the extra 25 minutes does not feel rushed.

If you are coming regularly, ask about the course rate when you book. The current offer is ten sessions with three more included.
