Questions

Frequently asked questions about Kobido

Is Kobido a beauty treatment?

Yes, it is a beauty and wellbeing ritual: it relaxes the facial muscles and enhances the radiance of the complexion, with no medical purpose.

Should I come without make-up?

No need: make-up is removed at the start of the treatment. If you prefer to use your own products, come without make-up.

What happens at a first appointment?

Before each massage, we take time to talk, to get to know each other and to understand your expectations, your preferences and any precautions to take. This conversation helps guide you towards the massage best suited to your needs.

Which length should I choose: 1 hr or 1 hr 30?

Most massages last 1 hr (€70) or 1 hr 30 (€90). Shirotchampi lasts 45 minutes (€60); foot reflexology and the Tui Na back massage take 1 hr (€70), and the Signature massage 1 hr 30 (€95). Tailor-made massages of more than 1 hr 30 are also possible, depending on the needs identified. If you are unsure, the conversation before the session lets us choose together.

Do the massages have a medical purpose?

No. Every service is a wellbeing and relaxation massage, with no medical or therapeutic purpose.
