An ancient self-care practice used in traditional Chinese medicine, the Gua Sha tool is scraped across the skin to redirect energy flow and in doing so, breaks down stagnant energy, increases blood flow, and stimulates the lymphatic system to promote natural healing in the body. It’s a simple but rigorous technique that’s been used for centuries to treat a number of ailments including fever, muscle pain and tension, inflammation, chronic coughs, sinusitis, and migraines.

Studies have shown that this daily ritual improves circulation by up to 400 percent, boosts collagen, and combats pigmentation, dark circles, and puffy eyes.

Our Gua Sha arrives in a small drawstring pouch, with a recycled cotton, instructional card, and Green Moss Agate description card. Each gua sha is hand-carved and so there may be slight differences in shape and size. As green moss agate is such a varied and interesting stone, the colour and pattern of each gua sha will be completely unique. It's a stone with natural "veins" which can appear like cracks but are within the stone and a natural part of the pattern.
