GUA SHA STONE

Engraved with our logo, our GUA SHA STONE (pronounced "gwa sa") is created from a type of green quartz called aventurine. This stone is also called “Indian jade” due to its origination in India. This facial massage tool is used to help move lymph fluid out of the body, increase blood circulation and offer a type of toning "facelift" effect with a few upward strokes over time.
