Gua Sha Guides: How to Use, Shapes and Materials
A gua sha is a smooth, shaped tool that you glide over the face and neck as a gentle massage. Here is everything we have written about it, from your first session to choosing a shape and a material.
An honest note: gua sha can feel relaxing, but there is no solid evidence of lasting visible results. Use light pressure and enjoy the ritual.
