What is Gua-Sha?
Gua Sha is a technique that has been used in Chinese Medicine for thousands of years and basically involves scraping the skin. This helps encourage blood flow to the area bringing nutrients to the skin and promoting the removal of toxins. Additionally, you are exfoliating the skin by removing dead and dying skin cells and exposing younger, plumper healthier-looking skin. Traditionally, it is done with a piece of water buffalo horn but a tablespoon will work just fine. In as little as 10 minutes a day, you can see amazing results on your face.
