Natural Health Trading Gua Sha is a tool that comes from Chinese medicine, and the word 'Gua' means scrape, and 'sha' means sand.
This essentially means Gua sha treats muscle pain and give you a sculpted effect when pressure is applied onto the face using it. These tools have different edges, which fit on different parts of your face like your cheeks, jaw, forehead, etc to give you more coverage and contact for a great sculpted effect.
As you stroke along your face using the “Sweeping technique”, your skin stretches and this creates friction, giving you a well-contoured effect.
Facial tools must always be used with a serum or face oil of your choice. The rolling or sweeping effect will also ensure better absorption into the skin and ensure that the essential nutrients seep in.
