There is so much information out there on the 'Do's and Don'ts of skincare! So how do you know what's best for you? -RESEARCH!- However, in a busy day there's hardly time for that, right? That's why we here at BLS Spa do it for you! Today lets talk all things Gua Sha.
Gua Sha. Gua Sha Stone. Lymphatic Drainage
So what exactly is Gua Sha and what is a Gua Sha stone? Fabulous question! Gua Sha is actually an ancient Chinese medicine technique that manipulates and scrapes the skin to promote healing and all over skin wellness. A Gua Sha stone is a flat, smooth pebble used to achieve this. Modern stones are usually made up of jade or quartz and come in many shapes and sizes!
Now that we have a better understanding of what it is and where it comes from, let's talk benefits! Honestly, there are so many to list! Gua Sha is awesome!
First on our list of many is lymphatic drainage. This is a facial massage technique used to target movement in the lymphs to improve the flow of fluids and reduce puffiness.
Improves the circulation and gives extra oxygen to the skin cells leaving it fresh and glowing! We all love a good glow, right?!
Helps reduce inflammation caused by stress, poor diet and pollutants which effectively helps prevent breakouts.
Reduced wrinkles and dark circles under your eyes.
Effective treatment on hyperpigmentation.
Eases muscular tension.
It feels GREAT!
Use it in the morning to help reduce puffiness in your cheeks and eyes - use it before bed to ease tension and promote relaxation for a better night of sleep! But whatever way you use it just use it!
