your face reflects what's happening beneath the surface
from the way you hold tension in your head, neck and shoulders, to the way you breathe and move through life
The FaceUp Method™
holistic facial sculpting technique that works far beyond the skin
what is the FaceUp Method™?
Created by Olga Newman after years of clinical practice and research, the FaceUp Method™ is a holistic facial sculpting technique that works far beyond the skin.
Rather than masking the signs of ageing, it focuses on releasing the tension patterns held within the face, jaw, neck and surrounding tissues that can influence how we look and how we feel.
combining facial sculpting, myofascial release, lymphatic drainage, buccal massage and somatic bodywork, the FaceUp Method™ supports the body's natural structure.
as tension softens, circulation improves, lymphatic flow is encouraged, and the face often appears brighter, more lifted and more defined - without needles or invasive procedures.
why facial tension matters
the face is deeply connected to the rest of the body.
the way we hold stress, our posture, our breathing patterns and our daily habits can all influence the muscles and tissues of the face.
Over time, tension can become something we carry without even realising it - showing up as:
a clenched jaw
tight temples
heaviness in the face
tension around the eyes
changes in facial expression
feeling like your outer appearance no longer reflects how you feel inside
by releasing these patterns, facial sculpting massage allows the face to soften and return to a more balanced, natural expression.
how it works
releasing tension, restoring structure
The FaceUp Method™ works with the deeper structures beneath the skin - including muscles, fascia, lymphatic pathways and habitual movement patterns.
The face is not separate from the body.
Jaw tension, neck restrictions, posture and breathing patterns can all influence facial expression and the way tissues are held.
When the body has more space to soften, the face can begin to reflect that change.

the Casa Baba approach
at Casa Baba, the FaceUp Method™ is thoughtfully integrated with my broader understanding of the body, fascia and nervous system
drawing on my background in Biofield Tuning, breathwork and holistic bodywork, I tailor each experience to support your nervous system and the unique patterns your body may be holding.
a session may begin with weighted tuning forks placed on specific points of the body to invite stillness, bring awareness inward and encourage deeper relaxation before facial sculpting begins.
by creating space for the body to soften first, we allow the face to release and respond more naturally.
