Gua Sha Massage: How to perform it:

When performing a Gua Sha facial massage, begin by choosing an oil that suits your skin type. This ensures a smooth surface that easily allows the stone to glide over the skin without irritation. Apply the oil evenly to the desired area. Hold the Gua Sha stone at an angle of approximately 15 degrees to the skin and apply light pressure while scraping the stone in an upward motion.

Follow the natural direction of the facial muscles to avoid pulling and irritating the skin. Repeat these movements in each area you wish to treat. This effective Gua Sha massage technique should be able to help release tension, improve blood circulation and create a feeling of relaxation and well-being.
