Gua Sha Facial Treatment
Gua Sha is a thousand-year-old technique where you scrape the skin to remove waste products, tension and pain. The principle behind the technique is that you repeatedly scrape an oiled area of skin with a Gua Sha tool. You scrape in a specific direction, for example from acupuncture points, meridians and lymphatic channels.
Gua sha body massage is a deep connective tissue treatment. It promotes blood circulation, which may cause redness in the treated area, but this disappears after a few days. Extremely effective treatment.
Gua Sha facial treatment that improves blood circulation, gives renewed glow to the skin, reduces wrinkles and gives a more even skin tone.
When you book a Gua Sha facial, you get a pampering treatment that is not only relaxing and calming, but also boosts your skin's collagen production and gives it a renewed glow, helps reduce wrinkles and provides a natural firming effect. It also has a relaxing effect that can help with headaches, stress and muscle tension in the face.
Wrinkles, sagging skin and other signs of aging stem from poor circulation, loss of elasticity and use of facial muscles, and when we are stressed, the body diverts blood circulation from the skin to our muscles, which means our skin ages. Gua Sha can increase circulation by many percent.
Increased blood circulation to the face leads to an increased detoxification process, giving your skin new energy and radiance, and exfoliation increases collagen formation in the skin, which increases skin flexibility and reduces the visibility of wrinkles.
Gua Sha facials are a highly effective anti-aging treatment for the face.
Children and adolescents also benefit from Gua Sha treatment, as it is very relaxing and calming. It is also good for teenagers, as it helps to balance the skin and the hormonal system. Children and adolescents who suffer from anxiety can also benefit greatly from having a Gua Sha stone and learning to curve it for self-treatment.
Gua Sha is not only a miracle worker for your skin, but it can also help with a number of chronic conditions such as dizziness, migraines, tension headaches, stress and much more.
If you have a beard, we recommend that you shave it or keep it short.
