How do you use a Gua Sha tool?
One of the benefits of cold stone massage is that it can provide a deep state of relaxation, a release of tension, as well as, a reduction of swelling and inflammation due to scar tissue, trauma or injuries to muscles. Gua sha sha A few days later I try the no-frills version to alleviate some persistent tension and fatigue at Oakland Foot Health Center, a walk-in storefront not dissimilar to the medical-massage clinics in China serving working-class men on their lunch breaks, aunties, grandmas, and, once upon a time, me. “Gua sha has saved many peasants’ lives,” my masseuse tells me in Mandarin as she scrapes my back during an hour of body acupressure with gua sha, which goes for a modest $60. When I ask what her tool is made of, she chuckles. “It’s supposed to be ox horn, but it looks like plastic to me.” I leave with the same drained lightness coursing throughout my body that I felt after my experience at Ritual SF.

Empress Hydrasoothe Face Mist Dromen & Co Jade Gua Sha Stone Face Massager As with any muscles, for real strength and results you need real dedication and consistency, which means going to see a specialist on a regular basis or performing some Gua Sha at home. Though I’d prefer to lie on her comfy, cushy table and have her knead and lift and gently pull my face into a better state every week, I can’t afford it quite so often, so I bought some “jade” Gua Sha stones at Marshalls for about $8.

There are many gua sha methods, but the basic principle is to lift muscles and stimulate lymphatic drainage to clear out excess fluid. Most experts agree that a hydrating serum or face oil should be applied first to provide slip and seal in moisture. Start with your neck and gently run the smooth edge of the stone up and down with firm but not aggressive pressure. Repeat this five to 10 times, then move on to your face, slowly working from the center outward in zones (chin, cheeks, forehead), repeating each motion five to 10 times: “You cannot rush work with stones,” says the New York City-based dermatologist Dr. Macrene Alexiades. Our Face Massager Picks Just like the aforementioned roller, gua sha (pronounced gwah-shah) has been a key part of traditional Chinese medicinal methods for many moons. The term gua sha refers to the practice itself - a method of attaining 'sha', which can best be compared to the redness that follows a vigorous cleanse or a quick facial massage - a sure-fire sign that your skin cells are getting an oxygen boost as the blood rushes straight to the rescue. A prime example of the theory that pressure enhances performance (there's nothing like a deadline to enhance our productivity), the Gua Sha puts cells through their paces to kick-start repair and help trigger regeneration.
