Wishing Wellness Facial Routine: Gua sha

Gua sha aims to move energy, known as qi or chi, around the body.

Facial Gua sha relaxes tension in facial muscles which is purported to reduce fine lines. In theory stimulating the facial skin and muscles using gua sha can tone skin and promote increased skin elasticity.

Our face is often overlooked, even during a massage. We often hold a lot of tension in our forehead and jaw line. Massaging these areas with a well designed (ancient) tool helps bring focus and energy to your face and it only takes a few minutes to put on a facial oil and massaging.

This is a great after shower or pre-bed routine.

There are a lot of great ‘how to’ videos online but nothing beats listening to your own body and bringing focus to the nooks and crannies of your face and neck that need extra love.
