Focusing on the fascia of the body, our Yang Gua Sha tool is designed to be used with a firm pressure, facilitating a stronger grip that is ideal for the larger muscle groups. Use to break up and release myofascial tissue, muscle tension and stimulate the smooth flow of Qi, toning and sculpting the skin. *The Yang Gua Sha can be used to perform on both the face and the body, our product description aside, if you feel more drawn to one shape over the other we encourage choosing the tool that feels most aligned with you and your practice. Benefits for the entire body: Encourage the smooth flow of Qi throughout the body Stimulate lymphatic circulation and cellular regeneration Promote detoxification and immune function Support skin elasticity and quality Sculpt and tone Relieve muscle tension A self loving practice We recommend not using the Gua Sha over tiles or hard surfaces to prevent any potential damage or breakage. If dropped on hard surfaces it will act like a ceramic or glass and shatter. We suggest laying down a towel or a blanket and holding the Gua Sha with an oil free hand. Materials: Traditionally used in Ancient Chinese Medicine, Bian Stone therapy is the most ancient form of medical treatment in China, thought to have been made by the impact of meteorites upon the Earth’s surface in China’s Western Shandong region during the Cretaceous period (65-66 million years ago). Found to have over 30 trace minerals within the stone, when rubbed against the skin the stone gives out ultrasonic impulses. These ultrasonic pulses can help the body fight against inflammation, promote blood circulation and improve the body's microcirculation, helping the body to create negative ions, improving antioxidant defences and cell regeneration. Our Yin/Yang Gua Sha is made from 100% natural stone. Each will be unique, featuring naturally occurring marbling that may appear as white lines. Please understand that this is perfectly normal and is simply due to the organic nature of the stone.
