GingerChi’s Jade Gua Sha Treatment acts as a natural face lift! A modern anti-aging treatment based on the ancient healing art of GuaSha.
Gua Sha, meaning to “scrape away illness”, involves using stone tools, such as Jade, and a lubricant, as a healing technique used in traditional Chinese medicine. The tool is used to apply pressure while gliding over the skin repeatedly in one direction, thus stimulating meridians, activating blood circulation and dissipating blood stasis to heal pain and inflammation in the body to revitalize Chi.
The Jade stone is believed to carry nourishing and gentle energy and considered a symbol of beauty, grace and longevity. The semiprecious stone has properties that allow it to remain cold on contact (even in warm weather). This cooling effect helps to minimize pores, tighten skin and increase lymphatic drainage.
