How to use Patakara

Instructions

The manufacturer only includes a brief instruction manual in Japanese inside the original Patakara product box. A more complete and expanded version, developed in 6 languages (English, German, Portuguese, Russian, Italian and Spanish) and created by our team based on years of experience and practice, is only available when purchasing from Patakara.eu.

Therefore, when you purchase your Patakara from our store, you will receive the tools and links required to access the best usage and maintenance tips and recommendations, as well as a detailed and comprehensive user guide — with images, videos and step-by-step explanations — designed to help you achieve the desired results with your Patakara.

Precautions

Despite the high safety of the method, there are a number of precautions to take into account when using Patakara:

• Minor injuries and infected sores either in the oral cavity or on the face;
• Skin conditions (eczema, fungous diseases);
• inflammatory diseases of the facial and trifacial nerves;
• neuropathy;
• ENT ilnesses — rhinitis, maxillar sinusitis, tonsillitis (with lymph flow, bacteria can also spread in the body);
• lymphatic system diseases;
• brain blood flow disorder;
• high blood pressure;
• oncological diseases;
• severe osteoporosis;
• brain injuries;
• general serious diseases (pancreatic diabetes, severe vascular pathology, endocrine and immune system diseases, systemic connective tissue diseases, collagenoses).
• mental disorders and certain neurological diseases;
• alcoholism;
• drug abuse;
• generally feeling sick;
• your general physician’s prohibition;
• notched cosmetic mesothreads (cogs and aptos) in place.

The main contraindication for using Patakara is any illness in acute phase. In that case, consult your doctor.

In case of any systemic disease that causes swelling and edema (such as cardiopulmonary or kidney diseases, thyroid disorders, etc.), the results of exercising will not last long, as the skin will stretch out again and again due to the constant flow of fluids.

FAQ

What are the main goals of using Patakara?

• Restoration of normal facial muscle tone.
• Improvement of macro- and microcirculation in the face and neck.
• Restoration of lymphatic flow.
• Recovery of proper tongue posture and nasal breathing.
• Improvement of the aesthetic appearance of the face.
• Correction of posture and movement patterns through additional techniques.

Together with certain complementary exercises (if necessary), the following effects can also be achieved:

• Improved lymphatic drainage in the clavicular lymph nodes.
• Improved blood circulation in the thyroid gland.
• Improved cerebral blood circulation.

Does Patakara help with TMJ dysfunction and the asymmetries associated with it?

Yes, very significantly. In most cases, when the origin is not related to structural bone issues, facial asymmetries are caused by imbalances in muscle tone. Patakara is highly effective in helping restore proper muscular balance.

Our body has many mechanisms of self-regulation and self-recovery — we simply need to help support them. With the Patakara facial trainer, we work simultaneously on the muscular, circulatory, lymphatic and nervous systems. This offers hope for improved health, better quality of life and preservation of facial youthfulness for people affected by facial muscle and nerve problems, as well as TMJ dysfunction.

How long does it take to achieve the full effect?

It depends on your starting point, age and lifestyle. If you practice according to the instructions (4–5 times a day), maintain a healthy lifestyle and engage in physical activities such as biodynamics, Pilates or dynamic yoga, you will generally need at least 6 months to achieve good results. In older individuals, the process may take up to 1 year.

Based on our personal experience and that of our clients, results may continue to improve for 2 to 4 years. After that, progress usually slows down, and it may become necessary to complement the training with additional techniques if certain areas still require further work.

Which facial area improves most quickly with Patakara?

The area in which muscle tone has been least affected and where fibrosis is less pronounced.

Each face is unique, and every body has its own imbalances. Posture also has a major influence on the condition of the neck and, consequently, the face. The lower part of the face is usually the most difficult area to restore when significant structural changes are present. This area is also frequently associated with the formation of nasolabial folds and tension around the mouth and chin.

Can Patakara be used during orthodontic treatment?

Yes. Not only can it be used, but Patakara can also be an excellent complement to orthodontic treatment. Tooth movement may become faster and more comfortable, while the muscles may remain more relaxed during the reorganization of the bite.

You simply need to pull your Patakara slightly outward so that it does not come into excessive contact with the brackets, for example. It is also important to make sure that the surface of the trainer does not become damaged or scratched.

In addition to Patakara and certain massages, what else is recommended for treating bruxism?

1. Stress reduction.
2. Control of facial tension and expressions.
3. Proper oral and bite care.
4. Neck exercises.
5. Good postural habits.

Does the absence of molars influence the formation of nasolabial folds?

Of course — it is one of the possible causes. Instead of injecting fillers into this area, it is often preferable to restore missing teeth (with implants, for example) and combine this with regular Patakara training.
