Is it possible to learn this wisdom on your own?
What is the effect of spoon self-massage?
The main purpose of massage with spoons is to eliminate facial wrinkles. German cosmetologist Rene Koch recommends using silver or cupronickel spoons to achieve the best result.
Rene Koch, a German cosmetologist, suggests using massage with spoons in order to achieve incredible effects in eliminating facial wrinkles. You can use products made of any metal, but it is preferable to choose silver or cupronickel. If you follow all the rules of the procedure, you can expect the following:
- Reducing the depth of large facial wrinkles and eliminating small ones;
- you can get rid of puffiness, which will lead to an improvement in the shape of the oval - the contour of the face becomes clearer;
- bags under the eyes become less noticeable;
- Improving blood circulation helps to even out the complexion.
What is needed for a massage
To carry out the manipulation, you need to use spoons, as well as two containers, one of which is filled with hot water, and the second with cold water. The procedure is carried out using massage oil or nourishing cream. It is also necessary to use a napkin or small towel.
What spoons to use
To carry out the procedure, it is recommended to use spoons of various sizes. They can be coffee, table, dessert. At the initial stages, the use of dessert spoons is recommended.
After mastering the technique, you can use larger or smaller spoons.
It is best to give preference to silver spoons, as this material has pronounced antioxidant properties, which ensures the penetration of nutrients into the deep layers of the skin. If you don’t have silver spoons, you can give preference to the stainless steel option.
How to do a massage correctly?
The technique of performing a spoon massage does not require special skills or effort. It is important to follow a certain sequence of movements to obtain the desired effect and take into account a set of preliminary measures. So, to start a facial massage, you need:
- Study the diagram of massage lines.
- Disinfect spoons.
- Thoroughly cleanse the skin on your face.
- Lubricate with oil or apply a rich nourishing cream to the facial areas being massaged. This will ensure that the metal back of the spoon glides smoothly.
If sliding spoons over your face is not intense enough, it means it is not moisturized enough, so you can increase the amount of oil or cream.
What do you need?
Before starting the massage you need to prepare:
- Cupronickel or silver (table and teaspoon) spoons - in the absence of such, you can take simple stainless steel.
- Cotton pads.
- Alcohol.
- Napkin.
- Cleansing facial toner.
- Vegetable oil - olive, flaxseed, pumpkin, apricot kernels, grape.
- Essential oil – roses, chamomile, ylang-ylang, lavender, mint, patchouli. These components must be selected depending on the individual characteristics of the face.
- Nourishing/moisturizing cream.
Recommendations for implementation
Regardless of which massage technique is chosen, it is necessary that the movement pattern of the spoons when performing the procedure follows the lines indicated in the figure and in the given direction. This is due to the fact that the facial muscles have their own facial lines, along which the formation of the main wrinkles occurs.
Depending on whether a warm or cold massage will be performed, there are certain subtleties in the approach and technique.
- Warm massage is performed with spoons, which must first be dipped in heated water. After this, wipe dry and dip the back side into the prepared oil. For massage, it is advisable to mix vegetable oil with the addition of 2-3 drops of essential oil.
- For a cold massage, immediately dip a cooled spoon into warm oil and begin massaging. The movement is carried out in the same way as the massage lines are located, with light pressure.
It is important to ensure sufficient glide to prevent stretching of the skin on the face. If the spoon pulls the skin a little, then you should add an oil base.
Both one and the other type of self-massage with spoons must begin with 1-2 minutes. Every day, increasing the total time by 1 minute, bringing it to 10-15 minutes. The facial muscles will gradually release tension and take on a more relaxed state.

For a spun therapy session you will need:
- half an hour of free time;
- video lesson;
- containers with hot and cold water (ice) or herbal decoction;
- 2-4 spoons;

- moisturizer after massage.
As you can see, the list of components is presented in accordance with the order of actions.
Before the procedure, cleanse your face with your favorite toner.
You can massage your face with silver spoons if you find any in your home. Meanwhile, both cupronickel and steel have also proven themselves well as materials for spun therapy.
To moisturize the skin before spun therapy, you can use olive oil, which has a beneficial effect on the skin.
Worth paying attention! Before massaging, you can apply a skin softening agent either to the skin or directly to the convex part of the spoon - the effect will be equivalent.
During spun therapy, do not deviate from the massage lines, otherwise the effect will be the opposite
Techniques for performing spoon massage at home
Basic massage movements during the procedure:
- tapping,
- stroking,
- trituration,
- indentation (pressure).
It is important, after one movement is completed, to divert the lymph from the facial area towards the main lymph flow, for example, to the neck and collarbones. To do this, complete each movement towards the ear, then down to the neck and collarbone.
You can choose not only warm or cold massage of the facial skin with spoons, but also a combined one. It is the combination of simultaneous use of heat and cold that will help get rid of excess fluid, thereby improving lymph and blood flow.
Hot technique will get rid of the double chin and tighten the skin in the lower facial area. It will even help cope with facial wrinkles and give the correct oval contour.
A cold spoon will relieve irritation and soothe the skin. After such procedures, skin turgor will increase, bags under the eyes will become less noticeable or disappear completely. All facial lines become more clearly defined.
The best time to do it is in the morning. This is due to the fact that it is in the morning that the skin in the facial area responds best to such a procedure due to the fact that it will function normally during the day. Don't massage too often. Consistency is important here. The course should be completed for 10 sessions, after which you should take a break.
Lymphatic drainage
The best type of spoon massage for correcting the correct oval of the face.
- In order to speed up lymph flow, take one heated and one cold spoon.
- Connect them with their edges and apply them to the central part of the chin.
- Next, in a circular motion, they pass from the lower jaw to the earlobe, and then along the outside of the neck to the collarbone.
The movement must be repeated 3 to 4 times on each side.
In this case, all excess liquid is removed from the facial area by pressing with spoons in the right direction.
This massage can be deeper and more intense, unlike other types.
For puffiness under the eyes
You can eliminate swelling with cold spoons. The massage algorithm is as follows:
- Using light movements from the inner corner of the eye along the lower eyelid, we move towards the temple.
- Then it should immediately go down to the earlobe and to the base of the neck.
This movement of spoons along the facial contour also helps remove excess cerebrospinal fluid.
Against forehead wrinkles
A contrasting massage technique or moving heated spoons is perfect. In this case, the facial muscles become less tense, they relax and wrinkles are leveled out.
The movement of the spoons on the skin should be moderately pressing, in a circle from the center of the forehead to the temples. In order to eliminate vertical wrinkles between the eyebrows, it is necessary to press on them alternately with a warm or cold spoon.
It is worth noting that the middle facial area of the forehead is quite intensively susceptible to the formation of wrinkles. The skin here is thick, so pressure with spoons can be carried out quite intensely.
In the nasolabial folds
First, you need to stretch the nasolabial muscles and folds - move the spoons in a vertical direction, alternating the sequence.
- The massage should be performed from the nose to the cheeks or starting from the corner of the mouth, leading a line to the earlobe.
- When heating the spoon, with puffed out cheeks, you should move in a circular motion along the nasolabial fold from the wing of the nose to the chin and move towards the ear along the lower jaw.
To rejuvenate the skin around the eyes
Use cold spoons to massage the area around the eyes.
- Begin to move the spoons over the skin from the inner corner along the brow ridge to the outer side.
- For crow's feet, alternately apply hot and cold spoons in the corners of the eyes.
- You can also use spoon massage with light circular movements in a clockwise direction around each eye, starting from the bridge of the nose.
- The movements should start from the middle, the pressure should not be too intense in the eye area, since the skin here is especially delicate.
For this massage technique, you can choose teaspoons.
This massage will help get rid of dark circles under the eyes.

Everything ingenious is simple! This was once again proven by the German cosmetologist Rene Koch, who came up with a unique massage technique using cutlery - spoons. Anti-cellulite massage with a spoon is one of the simplest, most convenient, and at the same time effective ways to get rid of cellulite at home.
The beauty of this technique lies not only in its effectiveness, but also in the fact that it is accessible to absolutely any woman. To carry out a spoon massage, absolutely no special skills are required, and you only need one tool - an ordinary spoon.
The revolutionary nature of Koch's idea lies in the use of not only cold, but also hot and even flavored spoons. As a result, excess fluid is removed from the tissues, blood supply and lymph flow improves, muscles become more elastic, and facial contours gain greater clarity. However, not only faces. Spoons have proven to be a very effective remedy against sagging buttocks, fat deposits on the stomach and thighs, and even against cellulite.
Why a spoon?
Of course, at first glance, this choice of device for anti-cellulite massage may seem a little strange. However, upon closer examination, it becomes clear why the spoon was chosen.
Firstly, the spoon exerts the strongest possible pressure on problem areas of the skin, but does not injure the skin.
Secondly, using a spoon makes it much easier to massage hard-to-reach places.
And finally, thirdly, a simple spoon can work real miracles with the skin - it not only destroys bumps and pits on the skin, but also relieves puffiness and prevents sagging skin.
Recommendations
Unlike other massage methods, which can be performed at any time of the day, spoon massage is preferably done in the morning. This is explained by the fact that spoon massage has a prolonged effect, that is, the therapeutic effect does not end when the procedure is stopped, but brings benefits throughout the day. Massaging problem areas with a spoon creates a certain preparatory anti-cellulite base. After the massage, the woman continues to lead a normal lifestyle - she goes to work, does household chores, goes shopping, and the effect of the procedure on the body continues.
Traffic rules
The main movement is circular. First clockwise, then counterclockwise. They always massage clockwise with pressure, but under no circumstances should you apply pressure in the opposite direction, so as not to cause a reverse outflow of tissue fluid.
Movement in straight lines from bottom to top is allowed.
The skin must be clean, without any makeup.
Creams and natural essential oils can be used as a massage base. The optimal time for procedures is immediately after waking up.

The technique of anti-cellulite massage with a spoon is extremely simple. Before the procedure, the spoon can be cooled or heated - it depends on personal preference. Both a warm and a cooled spoon give approximately the same effect.
Before massage, a heated or cooled spoon must be lubricated with anti-cellulite cream, a mixture of essential oils or a regular moisturizer. Cream or oil should also be applied to the skin. Ordinary honey is also a wonderful remedy for massage with a spoon. It should be warmed up a little before applying. There is no need to rub these products into the skin - the slower they are absorbed into the skin, the more effective the massage will be. In order to prepare the skin, you should massage the skin a little with a spoon in a circular motion, applying a little force. You should not press too hard - a little pressure will be enough to activate blood circulation.
1) Place warm spoons in the hollow of the neckline and move in a circular motion towards the armpits. You can coat a spoon with wheat germ oil.
2) Place a cooled spoon on the crook of your elbow and slide it up the inside of your arm in a circular motion. Prevents muscle sagging
3) Grease a cold spoon with cream. First, massage the inner side of the thigh from bottom to top, and then the outer side.
4) Cool large salad spoons and apply to the buttock folds. Massage in a circular motion from the center to the sides, then from bottom to top.
5) First move the cold spoon clockwise around the navel, then up and out (with force!). Helps get rid of fat folds.
7) The back should be massaged, moving from the tailbone upward. Circular massage movements are directed clockwise from the spine along the ribs.
Dip a spoon into crushed ice. Then apply it to your eyelids. This will help eliminate puffy bags and dark circles under the eyes.
Considering the popularity of this method, there is no doubt that it gives remarkable results. Another factor worth noting is safety. Spoon massage has no contraindications and is absolutely safe for women. In addition, the procedure does not cause any unpleasant sensations; on the contrary, “spoon massage” causes extremely pleasant sensations. Massage with spoons can be performed even when other types of massage are contraindicated - for example, with varicose veins and during pregnancy. If there are serious health problems or the woman is in the last months of pregnancy, it is necessary to consult a doctor before the procedure.
