In traditional Chinese medicine, the Guasha tool is used as an instrument, in which, the face and body muscles are treated to boost the body's metabolism while simultaneously removing accumulated toxic waste products from the body. The Hukka Guasha Sauna Massage Stone is ingeniously made of Finnish Soapstone which is excellent for retaining heat and cold during your massaging sessions. Naturally mold resistant and 100% complete with hygienic qualities, this flawless massaging tool is great for sensitive surfaces, such as the face. With the skillfully crafted design, you'll find the most suitable point for addressing different sections of the body.
BASIC GUASHA TREATMENT TECHNIQUE
1. Hold the Guasha in the hand so that it is always at an angle of about 45 degrees to the area to be treated.
2. With Guasha, you can pull and push along the skin. By regulating the use of force and the speed of movement, you get
different effects from the treatment. The different shapes of Guasha are also suitable for printing and rolling.
3. Do not treat the top of the bones strongly, between the bones and the sides are often good treatment areas. Joint areas can also
be treated with Guasha .
4. Guasha can be used on bare skin or with massage oil. It can also be treated through clothes.
FACIAL GUASHA TREATMENT
How to care for the face:
• Cleanse the face before the treatment
• If the skin is very dry, you should moisturize it before the treatment with e.g. coconut oil
• If the skin is oily, no oil is needed
• The treatment should be done very carefully and repeated at least ten times to get the best result
• After the treatment, you should use normal skin care products
AFTER TREATMENT INSTRUCTIONS
1. Remember to rest and drink plenty of liquid, preferably water or tea
2. Clean the Guasha. You can use normal household cleaning products or put it in the dishwasher
3. Hukka Guasha is made from natural stone that is more than two billion years old. Handle it with care, do not knock it or drop it on the floor
THINGS TO CONSIDER DURING GUASHA TREATMENT
1. Drink a glass of water or diluted tea both before and after the treatment. Rest
for at least ten minutes after the treatment.
2. Guasha is an effective treatment tool for treating the whole body. It is completely normal that the treated area may be
painful 1-2 days after the treatment. During and after the treatment, intense skin redness and even bruising may also occur. This is also normal and indicates an increase in metabolism.
3. The use of guasha is prohibited on areas with rashes and injured parts of the body. Caring for the seriously ill is also
prohibited.
4. We do not recommend using guasha for people with very sensitive skin or people who bruise easily
