FACIAL MASSAGE GUA SHA
Available in 30' Face and neck
      
When Gua Sha moves across the face in large steps, it kick-starts the lymphatic system to flush out toxins, stimulates blood flow and collagen, and works deep into the muscles to release tension. Studies show that gua sha increases microcirculation by 400%, a boost that brings in more oxygen and reduces inflammation. Even after just one treatment, skin looks brighter and lifted as this simple technique plumps, smooths fine lines, reduces puffiness, sculpts the cheekbones and jawline, and reduces tension. Over time it promotes firmer, brighter and healthier skin.

The facial massage is carried out with special item and Effleurage, which comes from the French "to skim" and "to touch lightly" and prepares the face for a massage at a slow pace and with light pressure. This is followed by small circular movements, upwards and outwards, to increase blood flow and brightness and smooth the uneven skin surface.

Gently pinching and tapping lightly, outwards and upwards, introduces a rhythmic compression of the tissue and stimulates the nerve endings and contracts the capillaries. It is particularly beneficial for sensitive skin types: a light superficial touch induces a cooling effect, Fan-like movement on the jawline is a rhythmic variation on the “petrissage technique”. Originating from the French word “to knead”, it requires lifting and rolling tissue vertically and works on the dermal layer of the skin.


Let's see now the most important benefits that can be obtained with targeted treatments;

  • Purifies and enriches the skin
  • Promotes the elimination of dead cells
  • Stimulates collagen production
