Rediscover your natural radiance with the Face Up™ Method
❋
Welcome to Face Up™
Face Up™ is a deeply restorative facial sculpting method that works with the deeper layers of the face, jaw, neck, and upper body.
Created by Olga Newman, it’s become internationally recognized for it’s ability to gently unwind stress patterns and bring the whole body into a softer, calmer state through slow, intentional touch.
Rooted in myofascial release, lymphatic support, breath awareness, and mind-body connection, Face Up™ is far more than a beauty treatment, it helps ease tension through the face and jaw and creates a sense of space in your body.
Face up ™ offers a powerful, non-invasive alternative to aggressive cosmetic approaches by addressing the root causes - the patterns and tension that shape the face from the inside out. This way, we are not just creating a moment of relief, but supporting real, long-term change.
Our daily habits shape the face - the way we hold stress, the way we sit, the way we breathe, the way we clench without noticing. Long days on screens, tight shoulders, shallow breathing, bracing through the jaw … it all shows up.
Face Up™ supports circulation, reduces puffiness, releases jaw tension, and helps the facial contours lift in a way that feels natural. Clients often describe it as a full-body exhale - grounding, regulating, and deeply restorative.
Benefits of Face Up™
Face Up™ offers a deeply therapeutic blend of benefits that work far beyond the surface of the skin.
Brighter, healthier skin - increased circulation delivers more oxygen and nutrients, giving the face a clearer , more radiant glow
Reduced puffiness & lymphatic support - gentle techniques encourage lymph flow, helping clear stagnation and natural detoxification
Fascial release - slow, intentional work with the connective tissue softens restrictionsand creates more ease and openness through the face
Jaw tension relief- deeper layers of muscular holding unwind, easing clenching patterns that shape the lower face over time.
If you are experiencing significant jaw pain or chronic clenching, the dedicated Jaw Release treatment may be more suitable.
Nervous system regulation - the treatment invites stillness, allowing your system to settle and reconnect with itself from the inside out
‘‘What if the tension you see on your face has very little to do with your skin and everything to do with how you are moving through life’’
-Olga Newman, Face Up™ Founder
Frequently asked questions
-
No. Face up™ isn’t a cosmetic facial. A cosmetic facial works on the skin. Face Up™ works on the structures underneath the skin - the fascia, muscles, lymphatics pathways and the nervous system.

I recommend waiting 6 weeks after Botox before booking a Face Up Massage to allow the treatment to fully settle. However, if you’d like to come in sooner, we can still proceed—with care. In these cases, I will avoid the area where Botox was administered and gently remind you of the potential effects massage may have on the treatment.
For dermal filler, I advise waiting 6–8 weeks post-treatment before receiving a Face Up Massage. This is to reduce the risk of filler migration, as facial massage can influence how filler integrates and settles in the tissue.
If you’re ever unsure, feel free to reach out before booking.
-
Yes, Face Up Massage can be a beautiful support during pregnancy, particularly for calming the nervous system and releasing tension.
I generally recommend booking once you’re in your second trimester. Please note that the treatment is performed while lying on your back—however, if you're further along or feeling any discomfort, I am more than happy to adjust the setup with a side-lying position and supportive pillows to ensure your comfort and safety.
As always, let me know if you have any questions or specific needs ahead of your appointment.
-
Your initial session will begin with a 15-minute consultation, where we’ll explore your areas of concern, daily habits, and any lifestyle or environmental factors that may be contributing to signs of ageing.
There is an option to take a “before” photo to help track your progress over time.
The Face Up massage itself is 70-minutes.
To support your treatment at home, we will discuss some home-exercises based on your bodies needs after your session.
-
Absolutely, So many of my clients feel calmer and look fresher or less puffy straight after a session. If you are looking for longer-term change, I can recommend a treatment rhythm based on your goals which we will discuss.
-
This depends on what you’d like to get out of your treatments. We’ll always talk this through together and tailor a plan that feels right for you.
As a guide, many clients choose to come monthly to maintain results and support ongoing goals. If you’re looking to kick-start your results, you might choose to come every 2 weeks for a short period of 4–6 treatments.
There’s no pressure to commit, it’s about finding a rhythm that works for you and your lifestyle.
