Gua Sha

Description

Handmade with medical grade stainless steel.

According to traditional Chinese medicine, good health relies on chi, or energy, to easily flow through your body. If this important force gets blocked in an area, you can start to have skin / health issues. Gua sha is believed to get this vital energy “unstuck” and flowing again.

Gua Sha can help sculpt, de-puff, reduce facial tension, increase lymphatic drainage, move stagnant energy and promote blood flow. And by increasing the skins circulation every day, it moves waste products out of the skin. This helps clear out blackheads and breakouts without damaging skin with extractions.

Gua sha shouldn’t hurt. On your face, use gentle pressure and smooth strokes to get the benefits (I send out a diagram & “how to Gua Sha” with your purchase).

I try to do Gua Sha at least twice a week but if you can make it a part of your evening or morning routine that is ideal!

You can apply a face oil right before you do gua sha (I recommend the Osmosis Nourish oil – found on my website or Jojoba). This will help the stone or roller glide more easily.
You may need to apply it more than once during the process.

Also please skip gua sha on your face if you’ve had skin fillers (such as Botox) injected into your face within the past month.
