Stainless Steel Gua Sha (Face Massage Tool)

Gua Sha (pronounced “gwa sha”) is an ancient Chinese facial massage technique that can help with:

• improving energy flow and blood circulation
• encouraging lymphatic drainage (aiding the body in removal of waste and toxins)
• improving skin complexation, vitality and elasticity by increasing collagen and elastin production
• increasing skin absorption (paired beautifully with jojoba oil benefits!)
• oxygenating the skin
• reducing skin and eye puffiness
• relieving muscle tension throughout the face and neck
• connecting to your body and self through self care ritual and meditation

Gua Sha Features:

• Made of medical grade stainless steel (304 stainless steel), meaning strength, durability, cleanliness, corrosion and rust resistance and recyclability
• Made to last - other crystal gua shas are fragile/breakable
• Rounded, smooth edges with each side of the gua sha tool suiting a different purpose (see photo) and allows you to massage your facial acupressure points
• Lightweight, portable and durable

Directions for Use: The amount of pressure applied in gua sha massage needs to be firm to achieve best results (but not too hard). Ensure your face and gua sha tool are clean before commencing - simply run the tool under fresh water with some natural soap. Apply a small amount of face oil to your face and neck (I recommend organic Jojoba Oil). You want to scrape the tool (almost flat, not upright) along your skin. Working from the collarbone up the neck, or from the centre of your face outwards, following the contours of your face. There are many tutorial videos on gua sha online, which I recommend exploring and following along while you get the hang of it. You can do this daily and it is a beautiful addition to your morning flow. 

There is also a Gua Sha & Jojoba Oil Face Pack available.
