Gua Sha is comprised of two Chinese words: Gua, meaning to rub or scrape, and Sha, a type of stagnant energy that causes excess heat to build within the body.

When put together a Gua Sha tool acts by rubbing the skin to remove energy blockages. According to traditional Chinese medicine theory, by bringing heat to the skin surface, Gua Sha, releases the blocked energy and heat.

Because of our in-depth knowledge of the use of temperature and Stones, we believe we have found the best way of using these beautiful ancient stones shapes, whether heated or cooled .

Warm relaxes tissue, stimulates new blood supply and bring a feeling of deep relaxation and peace. 

Cool helps tone and tighten skin tissue, it encourages elimination of excess fluid, helping to reduce puffiness, and aids the firming of connective tissue.

Using the cool Gua Sha  encourages new nutrient rich blood to feed to return to the treated area , nourishing  and helping to  renew the appearance of the skin.

It is the combination of the beautiful stone Gua Sha tool, the alternating temperatures and the repetition of the strokes which will help to bring a new youthfulness.
