➤ Preparation: Cleanse and moisturize the skin in the area you want to treat.
➤ Hold the Tool: Hold the Gua Sha tool at a 15 to 45-degree angle against the skin. The angle may vary based on the area being treated and personal comfort.
➤ Application of Oil or Lotion: Apply a lubricant, such as massage oil or lotion, to the skin. This helps the tool glide smoothly over the skin.
➤ Scraping Technique: Use gentle, controlled strokes with the tool, scraping in one direction. The strokes should be firm but not painful. Common directions include upward, downward, or outward, depending on the specific technique and area being treated.
➤ Repeat: Repeat the scraping motion several times in the same direction. You can go over the same area a few times, but avoid excessive pressure to prevent skin irritation.
➤ Clean the Tool: After use, clean the stainless steel Gua Sha tool with mild soap and water or a disinfectant wipe to maintain hygiene.
➤ Durability and Cleanliness: Stainless steel is highly durable and resistant to rust, making it a long-lasting tool. It’s easy to clean and sanitize, which is especially important for facial tools to avoid skin irritation or breakouts.
