What is VIZENDO?

VIZENDO is an award-winning, all-hand facial and body treatment method based on traditional Japanese martial arts and Zen philosophy, combined with modern anti-aging science.

This method deeply relaxes facial and masticatory muscles affected by stress and clenching, restores them to their natural positions, and promotes:

• Anti-aging and lifting effects
• Smaller face and facial balance
• Mind-body harmony

It is a holistic, gentle technique that protects the practitioner’s body while delivering deep and effective results for the client. It also reflects the spirit of Japanese hospitality through detailed and attentive care.
