Get Bold With Gua Sha in Mason City, IA
The Gua Sha massage method has gained popularity for the benefits it offers when applied to the face.
Long before the social media trends where you see people using a tool to gently scrape their faces, healers used Gua Sha for multiple purposes, like treating chronic pain, increasing blood flow, and detoxing the body. Gua Sha in Mason City, IA is a whole-body treatment that leaves you looking and feeling beautiful, healthy, and refreshed!
What to Expect
The Gua Sha Process
Consultation
We always have consultations with each of our patients prior to their appointment. This allows us to fully understand your needs and how to adapt the Gua Sha treatment to be most beneficial to you!
Treatment
At the start of the treatment, your provider will use oil on your body to allow the dull-edged tool to glide easily. During Gua Sha, your provider uses the tool to apply pressure to the desired treatment area(s). The pressure may increase as the treatment continues, and you may notice your skin getting red with rash-like dots called petechiae. Don’t be alarmed; this is normal!
Results
Some patients report feeling calm and relaxed after treatment, and others find they feel energized. Full-body Gua Sha helps improve circulation, fight chronic pain, promote healing, and release toxins. You may also notice a brightened and tightened complexion, reduction in cellulite, and a more even skin tone.
