The Gua Sha is a great addition to your daily beauty rituals. Gua sha is a traditional East Asian and Chinese technique used to invite well-being, circulation, and remove stagnant toxin build-up in the body. This face-sculpting tool is used to improve the skin's firmness and enhance the performance of facial oils/serums absorption while stimulating collagen production for firmer skin.

WHAT IS GUA SHA?

Gua sha is a traditional East Asian and Chinese technique used to invite well-being, circulation, and remove stagnant toxin build-up in the body. It is used gently on the skin of the face, and quite aggressively on the skin of the body. Gua means to scrape and Sha means sand, and this practice has been used for thousands of years.

WHAT DOES GUA SHA DO?

For context, gua sha pre-dates acupuncture. The stroke pattern used awakens the meridian lines (lifeforce path) to activate the body’s natural healing abilities. For the skin, gua sha encourages collagen production (strength in cells). It sculpts and tones the face shape, allowing inflammation to drain and muscles to become free of tension — allowing them to do their supportive jobs properly. It also helps the skin return to its most radiant state as circulation is increased, sending nutrients to areas that may have been starved because of blockage.

Our choice of Black Obsidian stone

Black Obsidian is known as the 'Truth Stone" and is said to purge negative thoughts and emotions. Believed to provide powerful mental detoxification that shields and protects against negativity allowing the bearer to release disharmony, resentment, and anger.

Regular use of the Gua Sha may improve skin elasticity and skin smoothness while reducing muscle tension. Black Obsidian is forged from the force of hot volcanic lava submerged in the sea. A solid smooth black stone is said to be a type of volcanic glass.

This ancient technique has experienced a revival as an amazingly effective Facial & Body sculpting method to improve the appearance and texture of the skin.

Most practitioners agree that consistent use of the tool helps improve microcirculation, skin toning, and smoothness. The Gua sha method effectively works at increasing blood flow beneath the skin.

*We recommend using one of our oil-based serums to begin with, or our cleansing oil. This will aid absorption and enhance the effects of your serum or oil.

Note: Expect natural variations in the stones. Each Gua Sha will be unique in colour and pattern. The smoothness of the edges is the primary function of the Gua Sha we inspect each stone to ensure the edge is not rough or sharp. It is normal for natural indentations to be present which are characteristic of natural crystal stone and do not adversely affect its use or performance.
