Gua Sha Facial Massage Tutorial - Delicate Movements That Deliver Surprising Results
What if I told you that you could get better results from your gua sha facial massage if you slowed down and used lighter pressure? I know that sometimes we think that deep and faster motions with the gua sha stone will give us better results, or at least the results that we want more quickly. But if you’re looking for less puffiness, a more even complexion, and more contour (all thanks to lymphatic movement/drainage), light pressure and slower movements move the stagnant lymphatic fluid best. Thats the key to your results!
Scrub me secret: lymphatic fluid sits underneath the tissues of our skin, above muscle tissue. Thats why lighter pressure is better when your goal is to move and drain lymphatic fluid.
This facial massage tutorial is a guided gua sha facial massage that takes 22 minutes in total. We focus on slow, delicate, intentional movements to give results like a more contoured face, a more even complexion (less redness), and an overall healthy glow!
