Gua Sha...What Did You Say?!

Eastern medicine-based skincare is finally taking hold in the U.S. One technique the Beauty Team at Pamela Bond Skinfitness loves is Gua Sha facial massage. It is a 100% all-natural approach that has been used in China for thousands of years.

At Pamela Bond's, our Gua Sha massage starts with the neck, working our way up to the forehead. As the lymphatic drainage is stimulated in the neck and jaw, by the time you get to the eyes, the excess fluid has someplace to drain out to. The result is less puffy eyes, more prominent-looking cheekbones, and a less rigid jaw. Also, relaxation of the facial muscles helps relieve headaches, neck pain, muscle tension and can even ward off wrinkles. The best part is that facial Gua Sha is so relaxing, many clients fall asleep during the procedure - a great way to combat ageing!

It helps drain lymphatic fluids and releases the fascia in the face so skin - the body's largest organ - can work better. The result is an increase in the circulation in the face, which studies show improves natural hydration, helps skin's ability to purge toxins and sebum, and leaves a vibrant glow to the skin tone.
