Gua Sha Facial Fusion™
Gua: to scrape or rub
Sha: redness/ stimulation
Gua Sha Facial Fusion™ is a facial rejuvenation therapy based on the traditions of Chinese Medicine and the profound cellular renewal and life-sustaining importance of manual lymphatic drainage, to help maintain youth and vitality.
Gua Sha Facial Fusion™ therapy achieves immediately noticeable results in the appearance of fine lines, deep wrinkles, dark circles, puffy eyes and sagging skin, by combining a unique blend of facial massage modalities including manual massage, the application of a warm Thai Herbal Poultice and various Gua Sha tools. These clear away toxic accumulation, releasing deep-seated tension and promoting the free flow of vital nutrients to feed the skin and re-pattern the way it ages.
By increasing movement through massage and restoring inner mobility, the skin is able to naturally clear blockages and stagnant Qi. Igniting this natural healing power, the skin flourishes, developing a fresh, healthy glow that radiates from within and results in long term benefits.
Gua Sha & Lymphatic Drainage is a next level facial therapy that brings about fundamental change in the skin.

Gua Sha Neck, Back and Shoulder Massage
Similar to the Neck, Back and Shoulder massage but with the added benefit of using a Gua Sha tool, to draw sha to the skin’s surface. Sha is an accumulation of stagnant blood and heat in the subcutaneous layers of the skin, causing blockages. Often referred to ‘as acupuncture without piercing the skin, a bleeding method without real bleeding, and a massaging method without directly using the hands’, it produces profound healing, releasing tension, stress and pain.
Treatment time: 45 mins
