Facial Gua Sha
The Gua Sha Face Massage Pro Training is rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) principles, offering beauty therapists a holistic approach that includes face mapping, Gua Sha techniques, acupressure, and lifting and sculpting for the face, neck, and décolleté.
Why Offer Gua Sha Treatments?
Facial Gua Sha enhances skin health by boosting blood circulation and oxygenation, reducing puffiness, and promoting lymphatic drainage. It can help prevent acne, treat hyperpigmentation, and support the absorption of facial oils.
Gua Sha also addresses the flow of qi (life energy) to release blockages and promote radiance, reducing tension and stagnation in facial muscles.
