Gua Sha Massage Tool
What is Gua Sha?
Gua Sha (pronounced "gwa sha") originates from traditional Chinese medicine and describes a technique in which a rounded tool – usually made of jade, rose quartz, or, in modern versions, stainless steel – is used to apply targeted stroking movements to the skin and muscles. Originally, Gua Sha was used for detoxification and relieving tension throughout the body. Today, the tool has evolved into a popular instrument specifically for facial and body care.
The Gua Sha stone – quality and design
Our modern Gua Sha stone is distinguished by its unique, heart-shaped design, which perfectly reaches every individual area of the face. The smooth, cool surface made of high-quality stainless steel maximizes hygiene and durability. Thanks to the elegant satin pouch, the Gua Sha stone can also be stored and transported in style.
The benefits of Gua Sha
1. Reduction of fine lines & firming effect : Regular use of the Gua Sha stone stimulates microcirculation and supports skin regeneration. This can help to soften the appearance of fine lines and make the skin appear plumper.
2. Firming and decongestion: The cool stone stimulates lymph circulation and helps to remove accumulated fluid from the tissue – the result: a visibly firmer, more awake appearance, especially in the eye area (“Bye Bye, Puffiness!”).
3. Promoting Blood Circulation & Glow: The massage releases adhesions in the fascia and promotes blood circulation in the skin – for a fresh, rosy complexion and natural radiance.
4. Deep relaxation in everyday life : Transform your skincare routine into a relaxing spa experience. The gentle, massage-like movements help reduce stress and pamper your skin in a soothing way.
How does Gua Sha work? – Application tips
To fully enjoy the benefits of Gua Sha, we recommend the following application:
- Preparation: Cleanse your face and apply a high-quality oil, moisturizer, or nourishing mask. Our Morphderm products, such as the Face Gold Oil, Face Cream, or Face Mask, are ideal for this.
- Massage: Hold the Gua Sha stone at a shallow angle (approx. 15-30 degrees) to the skin. Begin with gentle pressure at the neck and work your way upwards to the cheeks, jaw, forehead and eye area. Repeat each movement 5-10 times.
- Hydration: Drink a glass of still water before and after the massage – this will optimally support the detoxification process.
- Aftercare: Clean the Gua Sha stone thoroughly after each use and store it in the satin bag.
Tip: For the ultimate result – the perfect combination
For a unique skincare experience, we recommend combining the stainless steel Gua Sha stone with our Morphderm products:
- The Face Gold Oil ensures smooth gliding and delivers high-quality care ingredients.
- The face cream provides intensive hydration and strengthens the skin barrier.
- The face mask pampers and soothes the skin, ideal as the final step in a Gua Sha session.
