You may already be familiar with the beloved skincare tool of the crystal or jade roller, but have you heard of the gorgeous beauty benefits of using a Gua Sha? A traditional Chinese practice, the Gua Sha is an ancient technique that comes with a whole host of stimulating and soothing properties for your skin. In this article, we take a deeper dive into the world of the Gua Sha and find out exactly how this tool and technique can benefit you along with a step by step guide on how to get it right.
The Gua Sha tool is a flat stone (usually made from a semi-precious gem). You can find Gua Sha made from Rose Quartz, Jade, Obsidian, Amethyst and other such stones that bring their own unique healing properties too. It has sharpish edges and is used for massaging the face or scraping gently across the skin. The word Gua means to stroke or to press and the word Sha means redness. While its name may translate to something similar to ‘stroke red’, that doesn’t mean that this practice is as rough and as extreme as it sounds. In short, you use the Gua Sha tool to stimulate the skin and encourage healthy circulation and lymphatic drainage among other things. You could see a Gua Sha facial as a non-invasive gentle kind of acupuncture as it brings similar benefits without the need for needles.
