"In this class, the face becomes the aperture through which seeing, body usage, 3-D touch and toning are communicated to the body, and in turn, the body, person and spirit are allowed a truer expression of the being within.  The expansiveness of the Aston® work applied in detail to the microcosm of the face, head and neck opens the door for an expansion of personal expression on every level.  The intricacy of this work when used on the facial muscles, the muscles of the eyes and head can be amazing in its power to balance long patterns in the rest of the body."

Aston® Facial Fitness

Aston^® Facial Fitness – NCBTMB Approved — shows the value of toning and relaxing the facial structures. This form matches the face to the body.

This bodywork blends toning exercises with massage to allow relaxation and vitality. The process includes techniques from all three forms of Aston Bodywork, as well as lymphatic drainage massage and isometric exercises. Facial toning focuses on the position, resiliency, mobility and tone of the structures from the neck up, which tends to assist visual acuity and the health of the temporal mandibular joint (TMJ). This process also neutralizes some of the negative effects of time and emotional expression.
