Regular use of our gua sha can offer quick relief and numerous health benefits.

Key Benefits of Regular Gua Sha Massage:

Enhanced Circulation: Improves blood flow, enriching body tissues with vital nutrients.
Muscle Relaxation: Soothes tense muscles and eases discomfort.
Improved Lymphatic Drainage: Supports the body’s detox processes by enhancing toxin release.
Cellulite Appearance: Helps in reducing the appearance of cellulite on the legs.
Stress Reduction: Lowers cortisol levels, aiding in relaxation and stress relief.
Boosted Immunity: Enhances the immune system's function through improved bodily flows.
Skin Hydration: Increases skin hydration when used with nourishing oils, making skin feel supple and rejuvenated.

Begin your journey to body rejuvenation by applying a liberal amount of our soothing oil to ensure smooth gliding of the Bian Stone Body Gua Sha. Start at the extremities, using gentle strokes towards the heart to harness the full potential of this traditional Chinese massage technique.

Key Points to Remember:

Gentle Pressure: Start with light strokes and adjust pressure as needed, being mindful of sensitive areas. It's normal to experience some sensitivity, but if you notice any bruising, reduce the pressure. This is a sign of stagnation clearing out, but let any redness or previous bruising heal before continuing in that area.

Comprehensive Coverage: Work from your feet and hands up towards the torso. Don’t overlook areas like the abdominal muscles, hip flexors, and any scars. Extend the massage to your neck, back, chest, and even armpits to release tension and stimulate lymph nodes.

Routine Practice: Rotate around different body sections daily to establish a consistent practice that enhances results. If using the tool lightly to reduce puffiness, feel free to use it daily.

After use, cleanse the tool with gentle soap and water, and ensure it's not shared with others. Enhance recovery by drinking warm water and resting for 15-20 minutes post-session to help refresh your body and boost metabolism.

Pro Tip: Hold the tool at a 15-degree angle to maximise contact with the skin. This ensures a gentle and effective treatment, leaving you refreshed and free from stress and body aches.

Stripey Horse Skin's BODY TOOL Gua Sha is made from bian stone - a type of Sibin pumice found primarily in the Sibin Mountains of Shandong province in China. Known for its deep black or dark green colour and may contain a variety of trace minerals, including more than 40 major and trace elements such as strontium, iron, and zinc. Historically, Bian stones were used for therapeutic purposes by ancient Chinese healers more than 2,000 years ago, predating the use of metal acupuncture needles.

Our Bian Stone BODY TOOL Gua Sha is crafted from naturally sourced sibin pumice, harvested with the utmost respect for the environment. We are committed to sustainable practices, ensuring that each stone is ethically extracted and responsibly transported. This tool not only promotes personal health and wellness but also supports ecological balance and community well-being.
