Gua Sha or Cupping?
While both massage techniques have somewhat similar effects on the skin their end result and the path you take to get there is a little different. Do you know what both techniques are and what tools to use, you may be surprised at some of the things you learn!

Which Is Better Cupping Or Acupuncture?

Gua Sha is a traditional Chinese medicine technique where a tool is used to scrape the skin to promote ‘controlled’ damage that stimulates repair. Originally, it was a practice to treat a myriad of health issues all over the body but the technique we will discuss will be for the face. In 2021 the Gua Sha facial massage entails using a tool to gently glide over the face to help sculpt, define and tone the contours of the quartz face.
