What is Gua Sha?

• Gua means scrape and sha means sand, its a
  treatment that involves scraping your skin with
  short or long strokes to stimulate
  microcirculation of the soft tissue, which
  increases blood flow.

• Gua sha is a natural, alternative therapy that
  involves scraping your skin with a massage tool
  to improve your circulation. This ancient Chinese
  healing technique may offer a unique approach to
  better health, addressing issues like chronic
  pain. Gua means scrape and Sha means sand.
• Gua sha is intended to address stagnant energy,
  called chi, in the body that practitioners
  believe may be responsible for inflammation.
  Inflammation is the underlying cause of several
  conditions associated with chronic pain. Rubbing
  the skins surface is thought to help break up
  this energy, reduce inflammation, and promote
  healing.

Benefits Of Using Gua Sha

• Our bodies can experience stress in the form of
  hunching back while at a computer, or headaches
  from tension, and similarly, our faces experience
  stress in the form of furrowed brows or clenched
  jaws. Gua sha relieves tension in the muscles of
  the face and body by increasing blood circulation
  and encouraging lymphatic drainage to eliminate
  bloating. It helps break up fascia, the
  connective tissue that hugs muscles but can
  sometimes interfere with optimal circulation.

• On the face, gua sha is known to decrease
  puffiness, promote anti-ageing, improve
  elasticity, detoxify the skin, rebuild collagen
  and improve skin tone. Its like a natural
  face-lift one that leaves your skin looking
  younger, firmer and brighter. Performing gua sha
  on your face for a few minutes every day can work
  wonders for your skin.

• Did we mention that gua sha is also super
  relaxing? Using long, repetitive sweeping motions
  helps to relax your muscles, and by incorporating
  some deep breathing and being present with each
  motion you are bringing your awareness into your
  body and out of the busy mind so youll be calm
  and ready for bed. We like to call this gua sha
  meditation.

1. Begin with the front side of the body. At the
   feet, work up each leg and thigh toward the
   heart. Focus on working into the pelvic ligament
   area for the maximum benefit of lymphatic flow
   and drainage.
2. Then, repeat upward sweeping motions on the back
   of the legs, starting at the calves and moving up
   toward the upper thigh with the same stroking
   movements.
3. Next, stoke up each arm on both sides moving
   toward the axillary area (under shoulder) for the
   maximum benefit of lymphatic flow and drainage.
   The underside of the arm can be sensitive so move
   cautiously in this area.
4. Using body gua sha on the abdominal area, start
   at your obliques and stock in a downward motion.
   When working on the abdomen itself, you want to
   work in a clockwise circular motion, encouraging
   the flow of digestion.

How to perform gua sha on the face?

1. Never put your gua sha tool in the fridge. This
   will only constrict your blood vessels, which is
   the opposite of what we want.
2. Start with a light face oil or cream so that your
   gua sha tool can glide across your face.
3. Forehead Sweep the stone up from the start of
   your eyebrows out to the hairline. Move up the
   forehead and repeat.
4. Under eyes Gently sweep from the inner corner of
   the eye to the hairline.

• 5. Cheekbones Sweep underneath your cheekbones
  and direct it toward your hairline.
• 6. Lips Glide over your lips back and forth six
  times.
• 7. Jawline Chin Glide the stone upwards from
  the centre of your chin and out to the ears to
  contour the jaw.
• 8. Neck when youve finished the face, sweep
  from under the chin down the neck to continue the
  drainage process. Move around, in downward
  motions, each time starting at the top, until the
  whole neck has been done.
