Do you want softer, smoother and fresher skin? Gua Sha is a fantastic method inspired by traditional Chinese medicine that gives your skin a natural lift. Instead of surgical procedures, you can use Me Anima's Gua Sha tools - special stones and crystals that stimulate the skin with gentle scraping. Here you will learn all about how to use Gua Sha and find the right tool for your needs.
What is Gua Sha and how does it work?
Gua Sha is a treatment method that uses crystals and stones to massage the skin and stimulate the lymphatic system. The treatment increases blood circulation, helps to clear away waste products and gives the skin a healthy glow. In addition, Gua Sha can:
- Reduce acne and pimples.
- Smooth out worry wrinkles and fine lines.
- Loosen tense muscles and promote relaxation.
Gua Sha tools come in a variety of shapes and materials, such as jade, rose quartz, carnelian, and bian stones, all with unique properties.
