Gua Sha is a traditional Chinese healing technique that involves scraping the skin with a smooth-edged tool, often made from materials like jade or rose quartz. This practice is believed to promote circulation, relieve muscle tension, and enhance overall wellness. It is commonly used on the face and body to improve skin appearance and reduce inflammation. During a Gua Sha session, a practitioner applies oil to the skin and uses the tool to scrape in specific patterns. The process may leave temporary red marks, known as "sha," which indicate increased blood flow. Many people find Gua Sha to be a relaxing and rejuvenating experience.
