Facial Gua Sha

SIN KANG TCM

Gua Sha (scraping) is an ancient Chinese method for improving the overall condition of one's facial skin. Gua Sha works deeper into the layers beneath the skin than traditional facial treatments, clearing meridian blockages, improving Qi and blood circulation, draining toxins from the body, improving muscle tone, reducing water retention and puffiness, and removing internal heat (re qi).

If you are looking for a facial treatment that will have a jaw-dropping result — without an equally shocking price tag, that’s where the buzzy Gua Sha treatment comes in.

Chinese Gua Sha Facial Massage

Facial Gua Sha therapy is the Chinese massage technique of scraping the facial meridians and acupoints with a flat jade or rose quartz stone. The Chinese facial Gua Sha massage technique helps to break up the connective tissue in facial muscle while the Gua Sha strokes unclog blockages in the meridians and detoxify the skin. All these help to promote better blood circulation and encourage lymphatic drainage to eliminate bloat. Besides boosting the blood circulation and relieving tension in the facial muscles, Facial Gua Sha can have therapeutic effects in relaxing our nervous system.

Facial Gua Sha has been reported to be effective in alleviating many skin conditions like rosacea, acne, eczema, and dryness.

At Sin Kang TCM clinic, we will begin with cleansing, Facial Gua Sha, and then end with a mask. No extraction happens.

Glow & Lifting Facial Gua Sha

We consider that beauty is the exterior manifestation of internal health. Shiny hair, a healthy weight, and glowing skin ― these are all signs your organs are happy in Chinese medicine. Focus on your health and beauty will follow.

Facial Gua Sha is able to give you clear skin, fewer wrinkles, and a more sculpted appearance. It is a simple and gentle technique that will increase circulation and lymphatic flow in your face.

Using a Gua Sha tool allows you to work deeper into the muscles and fascia than simply using fingers alone, so you can consciously release where you are tight. Facial Gua Sha activates acupressure points along the 12 major meridian lines in your face. The better quality Gua Sha tools will have been created using jade or rose quartz stone, and shaped without using unnecessary resins. East Asian medicine places value in the energy that certain objects carry, and materials like jade and rose quartz are known to carry healing energy.

Using a jade Gua Sha tool essentially gives your face a mini workout ― you are stimulating blood circulation, which increases the amount of oxygen and nutrients to the skin, which can improve skin health.

Individuals who are undergoing chemotherapy shouldn’t use Gua Sha 48 hours before or 24 hours after a treatment. Pregnant women should also avoid it unless a professional handles the task, due to the pressure points on the face and body that can trigger uterine contractions in rare circumstances. A Gua Sha tool can still be used if you have Botox or dermal fillers. The Gua Sha therapist should simply avoid the treated areas.

Individuals who are not recommended to do Gua Sha include menstruating women as it can affect the heaviness of the flow and those who have rosacea.

Gua Sha is an old Chinese technique for improving blood circulation and energy flow and it really works. The technique can be performed on the entire body and is historically fairly aggressive—the skin is scraped till red with a flat Gua Sha tool. As a proven result of the practice, you will have improved skin. It is not a hoax

Yes, Gua Sha can help you get rid of your double chin. All you need is a Gua Sha tool to get started. Simply scrape it down your skin to increase circulation and move the sluggish lymph to be cleared away. Our therapists are more than capable enough to help you with that.

While Gua Sha is recommended once a week, the frequency of use will be determined by your skin type and tolerance to the procedure. “Aim to employ Gua Sha at least two to three times a week as you become more familiar with it and more comfortable with your techniques,” says the author.

Gua Sha has been shown to help ease facial tension, reduce puffiness and inflammation, and even lower sinus pressure. However, because the musculature of the face is significantly thinner, you should avoid exerting excessive pressure while working on this area.
