Face Massage & Love Hormone

Oxytocin, also commonly known as the "love hormone" or "bonding hormone," is released in response to physical touch, including massage. Face massage as well as other types of body massage allow your body to naturally produce oxytocin in blood.

Oxytocin promotes relaxation and reduces stress by lowering cortisol levels, which is enhanced by the physical touch during the facial massage.

Increased oxytocin levels can elevate feelings of happiness and emotional well-being. This is one of the reasons people feel emotionally uplifted after a massage.

The release of oxytocin during and after a massage can help reduce feelings of anxiety and foster a sense of safety and security.

Oxytocin is also associated with reducing pain perception, which can make massage an effective method for managing chronic pain or muscle tension.

Massage can stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system, amplifying the natural release of oxytocin and leading to these positive effects.
