Weekly Gua Sha Routine: 30-Minute Massage for Lifted, Glowing Skin

I’m excited to share my new facial massage tutorial with you!

scrub me secret: you don’t need to gua sha every day to see results! I promise that if you put in the time and effort to give yourself a detailed massage (like this one, which takes 30 minutes), you can still have a fresh, even, youthful-looking face and neck, and only need to massage yourself once a week. That is how often I gua sha myself, once a week.

What to Expect from This 30-Minute Gua Sha Routine:

This tutorial has both verbal and written prompts and guidance. I definitely suggest listening with audio if you can; we get into all the details there 🎶

✨This gua sha massage sequence starts with neck release to allow for better flow of both lymphatic fluid and circulation. This release also feels amazing and is great for reducing head and neck tension and discomfort.

✨ After neck release, we work on one side at a time. You can start on the right or left side; it doesn’t matter which is first

✨ The next movements will be a blend of lifting massage and lymphatic drainage massage

scrub me secret: our focus here is to move stagnant lymphatic fluid that makes us look puffy, tired, uneven, or have a red or uneven complexion. Our secondary goal is to strengthen, awaken, and firm skin tissues, making them firmer and smoother.

✨ Then, we move on to wrinkle reduction and prevention movements with a lifting portion as well

✨ One side will be feeling lifted and fresh! Time to switch sides

✨ After you do the same thing on your opposite side, take a look at your face and see if any areas look uneven or need extra massage movements. Sometimes one of my cheeks needs a little more lymphatic drainage.

✨ We finish off with a little tapping massage under our eyes, using our finger tips. This awakens and firms the area.

✨ Admire your beauty!
