Description

Facial gua sha is an ancient Chinese massage technique that opens the flow of life force energy with Courtney St. John. Facial gua sha is an ancient Chinese massage technique that opens the flow of chi (life force energy in Chinese medicine) into the face and neck. It releases stagnation, stimulates energy points, releases toxins and promotes lymphatic drainage. Using a jade gua sha tool, the face and neck are gently massaged and manipulated and specific energy points along the face and body are stimulated using a scraping motion. The resulting beauty benefits are immediately noticeable. It softens wrinkles, lifts sagging skin and minimizes dark circles, puffy eyes, age spots and discolorations. The complexion is brighter, healthier, younger-looking and radiant. Incorporating this short massage into your self care routine a few times a week has the immediate result of lift and glow and the long term effect of significantly slowing down collagen loss!
