What is a Gua Sha massage?
It is a traditional technique that involves rubbing the skin with a smooth tool, usually made of natural stone, to stimulate blood circulation, release tension, and promote drainage.
The technique is simple: oil is applied to the skin, then firm, repetitive movements are made with the tool, following specific paths on the face or body. This helps to restart stagnant flow, reduce muscle tension, and eliminate metabolic waste.
On the face, this practice is used to decongest, lift, and tone the tissues. It helps reduce puffiness under the eyes, smooth features, and revive the complexion’s radiance. It is also known to improve skin firmness and reduce signs of fatigue. On the body, it relieves muscle pain, releases tense areas, and sometimes causes temporary redness, a sign of deep work.
