Service Description

Gua Sha is an ancient Chinese healing technique that involves scraping a smooth-edged tool across the skin to promote circulation, reduce tension, and enhance overall skin health. As a spa service add-on, Gua Sha offers clients a unique opportunity to elevate their experience, providing both therapeutic and aesthetic benefits. **Experience:** When added to a facial or massage treatment, Gua-Sha introduces an element of holistic care. Clients will be invited to relax in a calming atmosphere, where Stefiny will use a specially designed Gua Sha tool—often made from jade or rose quartz—to gently glide over the face, neck, or body. **Technique:** A light layer of facial oil or serum will be applied to enhance glide and nourishment before using the Gua Sha tool. The technique involves scraping in specific directions to follow the natural contours of the face or body. The strokes are gentle yet firm, designed to stimulate circulation and lymphatic drainage while promoting relaxation. **Benefits:** - **Improved Circulation:** Increases blood flow, which can lead to a more radiant complexion. - **Lymphatic Drainage:** Helps reduce puffiness and detoxify the skin. - **Tension Relief:** Alleviates muscle tension and promotes relaxation in the facial and neck area. - **Skin Firmness:** Regular use can help improve skin elasticity and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. - **Relaxation and Well-Being:** The soothing ritual can enhance the overall spa experience, leaving clients feeling rejuvenated. **What to Expect:** As an add-on, a Gua Sha treatment typically lasts 15 to 30 minutes, seamlessly integrated into the existing service. Clients may feel a gentle pulling sensation during the treatment, which is both relaxing and invigorating. After the session, you may notice a healthy glow and a sense of lightness in the area treated. **Conclusion:** Adding Gua Sha to any spa service is a wonderful way to enhance the overall experience. This ancient technique offers a blend of beauty and wellness, making it an excellent choice for anyone seeking to boost their relaxation while improving their skin health. Clients will leave feeling refreshed, radiant, and connected to their inner well-being.
