Gua Sha is a traditional Chinese healing method which involves massaging the skin with a smooth-edged tool known as a Gua Sha, used to improve circulation and promote lymphatic drainage.
Regular use of Gua Sha can help your face look more contoured by toning your facial muscles, aiding in circulation which helps carry away toxins and congestion, whilst enhancing skin tone and texture, as well as reducing signs of ageing.

Always ensure your Gua Sha is clean before you begin.
Apply some oil or moisturiser to your clean face and neck, and gently glide the tool over your skin in upward and outward strokes.
Light pressure should be applied – you are simply stimulating the lymphatic system and so using the Gua Sha in a specific way will maximise your results.
You can also store your Gua Sha in the fridge or freezer for a cooling effect, or warm it up in some hot water for a warming effect.
For maximum effect, and depending on your skin type and needs, use this every night for a few minutes with your favourite oil or cream.
