Are you looking for a facial treatment that will give you jaw-dropping results without a shocking price tag? That’s where Gua Sha comes in. Gua Sha, or “coining,” is a traditional Chinese technique. Read on to find out more.
Everything You Need To Know About Gua Sha
The word ‘Gua’ means scrape, and the word ‘Sha’ means sand. The treatment involves scraping a flat rose quartz or jade stone over the skin with upward strokes to relax muscles and promote tissue drainage.
The treatment is used in East Asian and Chinese medicine. You may be familiar with the Gua Sha massage, which use a unique tool to treat muscle pain and tight muscles. There’s also a prescriptive facial treatment, done with a similar technique.
What are Gua Sha’s benefits?
Gua Sha treatments can help with migraines and neck pain, among other symptoms. Just as your body experiences stress when your shoulders are hunched over a computer, or tension headaches, your face holds stress as furrowed brows and a clenched jaw. The facial massage technique is designed to relieve that tension in the muscles of the face, whilst boosting blood circulation and encouraging lymphatic drainage to reduce bloat. It helps to break up fascia, which is the connective tissue on muscles but which can sometimes interfere with circulation.
