Gua Sha: De-puff and Sculpt Your Face


Facial Gua Sha is a massage technique, traditionally used in East Asian and Chinese medicine, designed to sculpt the face by relieving tension in the muscles, boosting blood circulation, and encouraging lymphatic drainage.

Massaging your face with a gua sha stone every day (made of jade, quartz or other stones) will brighten your complexion, contour, sculpt and de-puff your face, and soften wrinkles and fine lines.



BENEFITS

  • releasing muscular tension

  • lymphatic drainage 

  • increasing blood circulation

  • improving fine lines and wrinkles




STEPS: How to use



1. Wash your face and apply a cream, serum or facial oil to help the stone glide more smoothly on your skin.


2. Watch a follow along tutorial on YouTube to learn the massage technique. Always hold the stone flat and connected to the skin with light to medium pressure and pull the tool upwards and outwards: never massage the stone downwards on the skin!

For a best practice, consider using both gua sha and a jade roller: use the roller first for the lymphatic drainage benefits, and then the gua sha stone for deeper muscle release and face sculpt.




Have you tried massaging your face with gua sha in the morning / in the evening? If you did, have you had results?


I personally did and saw an amazing transformation! I'm curious to know your experience :)
