What Does Gua Sha Do?

Facial Gua massage technique is designed to relieve tension in the muscles of the face to relax wrinkles and provide a more youthful complexion.

According to traditional Chinese medicine, qi or chi is the energy that flows through the body.

Many people believe that a person’s qi must be balanced and flowing freely to ensure their health and wellbeing and that stagnant qi is the underlying cause of several conditions, including chronic pain.

The stroke pattern used awakens the meridian lines (life force path) to help break up this energy, reduce inflammation, and promote healing.

The gua sha massage technique induces a deep state of relaxation, relieving the stress and tension of everyday life.
