Gua Sha Facial Fusion by Cecily Braden

Join Kristin Shaw and I for an immersive week of facial massage techniques and theory. Learn how to utilize the natural function of the skin to achieve “immediate results for long-term change.”

​ALL THE TECHNIQUE + ALL THE TOOLS

📍 Denver | June 14-17

Gua Sha Facial Fusion combines multiple massage modalities that allows you to customize and cater to the individual needs of your clients for immediate results, with long term benefits.

CJB Pro + Precision are 2 patented Gua sha stones designed by Braden in 2016 specifically for the techniques taught in this course.

CJB Thai Herbal Poultice Facial Massage was the first facial massage protocol developed by Cecily Braden in 2003

The Lymphatic Brush by Cecily Braden, the original patented skincare tool was added in 2023.

​🔸 ALL THE TECHNIQUE + ALL THE TOOLS

Gua Sha Facial Fusion brings it all together into a seamless transition from technique to tool to help you gain the greatest benefit from each.

🔸 Gua Sha
🔸 Thai Herbal Poultice
🔸The Lymphatic Brush
🔸Manual Lymphatic Drainage
🔸Connective Tissue Manipulation

We cover so much in class because everything is connected. One movement leads to the next, and we have to shift and change as the skin responds to our touch and adjust our intention, pressure and technique accordingly.

This is why we “fuse” multiple modalities with multiple tools in order to support the skins needs and be able to find our own rhythm as we listen, communicate and try to understand what the skin is trying to tell us.

The sequence of movements, alternating techniques and “fusion” of modalities is very specific and intentional when it comes to releasing the restrictions in the tissue, muscles and opening the pathways for fluids to flow throughout the face, neck and décolleté.

It’s all connected and each movement dictates the next movement as the face responds, releases and supports the natural function of the skin.

🍎 NEW YORK FIVE BORO BIKE TOUR 2026

Another ride, another 45+ miles through Manhattan’s five boroughs.

The biggest challenge this year was the WIND! Wherever we were headed, it was sure to be going in the opposite direction or hitting you from the side in an attempt to “huff and puff” and blow your bike over, but WE DID IT!

I ❤️ NEW YORK

ABOUT THIS RIDE

The history of Bike New York begins with the Five Boro Bike Tour, which started as an audacious plan to take a group of high schoolers on a ride across New York City.

Beginning in 1977, the American Youth Hostels and the NYC Board of Education initiated a high school training program that culminated in a challenge: 50 participating students were asked to pedal through all five boroughs in a single day. It was the first Five Boro Bike Tour, then known as the Five Boro Challenge, and it began with 250 total riders. Every year since, on the first Sunday in May, we welcome 32,000 cyclists from every state in the nation and more than 60 countries around the world to NYC for an experience of the Big Apple unlike any other.

Thai Herbal Poultice Facial Massage by Cecily Braden

Stress and tension is a common denominator that almost all my clients share and, the reason I always start EVERY treatment with the Thai Herbal Poultice Facial Massage.

The heat + the herbs and specialized techniques release tension, warm the tissue to create mobility and support the metabolic processes for vitality and optimal function.

Tight tissue doesn’t receive fluids well, so it’s important to relax and open the tissue space prior to lymphatic drainage or attempts to lift and sculpt for long-term change.

This is the foundation of all our Function Functional Flow Facial Therapies and supporting the interconnected relationship between the fluids and fibers” of our body.
