Origins and evolution of the Institut Takumi Finch
2014 - 2017: The birth of an innovative method
Inspired by Japanese therapies, we developed a facial method that combines physical, mental and emotional relaxation while boosting self-esteem. More than a beauty treatment, it balances body and mind.
2017: Evolution towards Therapeutic Wellness
The method is being extended to relieve certain skin conditions and anxiety, becoming a comfort treatment recognised for its physical and emotional benefits.
2020 : International recognition
The clinical results presented at international conferences gain the attention of health and beauty professionals, with widespread coverage in the press and on television.
2022: Integration into Medical Care
Cancer support centres in France and Switzerland adopt the method, recognising its positive impact on the well-being of patients in remission from serious pathologies.
2022: Enrichment with Fasciatherapy
The addition of fasciatherapy amplifies the benefits of the method, offering even deeper and more targeted treatments.
