1) What is Gua Sha?

Gua Sha is a traditional Chinese massage therapy which dates back over 700 years to the Ming Dynasty.

In Chinese, Gua means ‘scraping’. Sha means ‘an energy in the body that causes excess heat’

Practitioners use gua sha to move stagnant energy known as ‘qi’ across the face and body to improve blood and lymph circulation. It helps remove toxic compounds from the body.

2) How often should I gua sha?

Gua Sha can be used every single day for 5-10 minutes. 

At SHANTI³, we recommend a ritual of 5-10 minutes every morning as part of a daily practice. 

Using the Freedom Facial Oil and Gua Sha tool can enhance the skin, relieve stress and improve overall wellbeing by practicing ‘me time’ and mindfulness. 

Daily mindfulness is proven to reduce stress levels in the body

3) Is Gua Sha a trend? Does Gua Sha actually work?

Gua Sha is not a trend! It’s a timeless Chinese practice.

Yes, absolutely! Gua Sha ‘moves the lymph’.

The lymph is a colourless fluid which is made up of white blood cells and lymphocytes and transports white blood cells into the bloodstream. The lymph is responsible for getting rid of cellular waste that we produce. 

Different massage pressures using Gua Sha moves the lymph

• Light pressure – stimulates muscles and slowly moves the lymph
• Medium pressure – releases muscle tension and naturally lifts the face
• Strong pressure (take caution with this pressure) – sculpts the face and stimulates hair growth in the hairline

4) How to use a Gua Sha?

Unlike most massages, Gua Sha is performed with a Gua Sha tool. 

After a facial oil is applied to the face, the Gua Sha tool is used at a 45 degree angle or less to lightly scrap in long strokes across the skin. 

The idea behind Gua Sha is the motion and light pressure of the Gua Sha tool applies heat to the surface of the skin with the intention of releasing the lymphatic buildup from the body. 

5) How long till I see results with Gua Sha?

Within a couple of days of practicing Gua Sha, you’re likely to see and feel an overall improvement to your skin and sense of wellbeing. 

The jaw line appears more defined and the puffiness around the under eye area is reduced. 

With greater Gua Sha practice comes greater benefit. One week results include a reduction in your stress levels and one month results in less wrinkles, glowy skin and lower stress levels.

6) Do I need to use the Gua Sha with a facial oil?

Yes

It is recommended that a Gua Sha tool be used on clean skin and with a facial oil in order to reduce too much pulling on the skin.

5-7 drops of a facial oil is sufficient for the Gua Sha tool to glide effortlessly on the skin.

Formulated with precision, our Freedom Facial Oil is designed for seamless glideability with our Gua Sha tool. Say goodbye to friction and discomfort – the luxurious texture of our facial oil ensures smooth, effortless movements across your skin.

7) How do I clean my Gua Sha?

It’s extremely important to sanitise your Gua Sha tool. 

First, wipe the tool of any excess facial oil and wash in hot (not boiling) soapy water and allow to air dry on kitchen towel.

Using a rubbing alcohol, such as Isopropryl Alcohol may be used to clean the Gua Sha tool, but this is not essential. If you suffer with any skin sensitivity then please use soapy water instead.

Wash your hands before applying the Facial Oil and Gua Sha tool to your face.
