Revitonica (REVITONICA) and Osmionika (OSMIONIKA)

These effective and unique techniques for improving the appearance of the skin and working out the muscles of the face and neck were developed by Natalia Osminina, who for about 20 years has been involved in the rehabilitation of patients with problems of the muscles and skin of the face.

Their principle of operation is based on the laws of biohydraulics, theoretical mechanics, biomechanics, etc.

People who are interested in this topic can find special literature in bookstores: “Fitness for the face. Revitonika System ”and“ Face Resurrection, or Ordinary Miracle ”. These books were written by N. Osminina.

In them, she tells in detail what Revitonika and Osmionika are. Natalia not only describes all the exercises of this system, but also talks about the reasons for the appearance of the main shortcomings.

The sets of exercises are divided by the author into blocks for the back, neck and different areas of the face. Natalia Osminina also developed an author’s block for eliminating nasolabials.

Revitonics for working out the muscles under the nasolabial rolls is performed after cleansing the skin as follows:

1. Place your index and middle fingers together.
2. Place them on top of the cheekbones near the wings of the nose.
3. Stretch the lips so that they have the shape of an oval.
4. Begin to silently count to eight, and at the same time open your mouth so that your lips maintain the shape of an elongated oval.
5. During these actions, you should press on the cheekbones with your fingers.

Octionics to relax the muscles surrounding the nostrils is performed as follows:

• First part. Clamp the edge of the left nostril between the thumb and forefinger of the right hand. Place the index finger of the left hand around the nostril, and scroll the eights with two fingers. In order for this movement to work correctly, one should imagine that one finger is the zero of one part of the figure eight, and the second is the other zero of the figure 8. The fingers should be rotated relative to the conditional center of the figure eight.
• Second part… Put the index finger, directing its tip to the nostril, along the nasolabial. Begin to perform vibrating movements with them, slowly moving your finger, pushing the lymph along the fold down. Movements should be slow and choppy. You can enhance the effect of this movement by simply sniffing.

Octionics to relax the lifting muscles of the wing of the nose and upper lip is performed as follows:

1. Clamp the edge of the left nostril between the thumb and forefinger of the right hand. Place the index finger of the right hand at the inner corner of the left eye (this is the starting point of the muscle that lifts the wing of the nose). Move your fingers so that a crease forms between them. Pinch in such a way that the fold is not formed by the skin, but subcutaneously by fatty tissue and muscle.
2. Rub the resulting roller until it disappears. Stretch the worked out area in different directions. Perform a pinch again, and periodically stretch the muscle.

The complex is performed alternately with each half of the face.

The exercises included in the Revitonics and Osmionics complex give a lifting effect, restore muscle tone, eliminate their tension and spasms. Thanks to their implementation, not only the effect of skin tightening is obtained, but also puffiness under the eyes is eliminated, wrinkles are smoothed.

Exercise should be done daily 1 – 3 times a day…
