Gua Sha is a style of massage with lineage to ancient Chinese.  Utilizing a precious nephrite jade stone to massage the face, this treatment is meant to enhance the skin's natural ability to cleanse by supporting the lymphatic system within the skin.  Blood circulation is increased bringing necessary nutrition to the cells.  Fascia (connective tissue) is ironed out.  Qi (pronounced chi) otherwise known as our vital energy is balanced.  Benefits of this facial treatment include lifting, toning, the face is de-puffed, the skin is brightened, tone is more even, pores appear smaller. Additionally the rhythmic massage taps into the parasympathetic nervous system bringing deep relaxation.  Emerge from this treatment feeling and looking completely rejuvenated!
