Gua Sha for Everybody!
Get your Gua Sha tools folks! Because newer research done by Shiseido shows that the lymphatic system plays a major role in skin rejuvenation and health.
There are so many myths about our body, face, and skin. Anyone who is as excited as me to know MORE and discover along with science, yogis, and beauty-people?
We have believed for a while that the degeneration of collagen in the skin was the major player in skin aging. But now.. Maybe, we will have to shift perspective and look into the lymphatic system, the garbage men of the body, part of our immune system, and very active just below the surface of the skin.
One of the newer discoveries from last year (why aren't we all talking about this lol) is that prolonged inflammation and a waste product (IL-8) in the deep layer of the skin is causing degeneration of our skin stem cells, the cells responsible for -> fibroblast cells responsible for -> new collagen. See the connection?
Last week, in the Faceyoga GYM, we did a 10 minute DIY Gua Sha facial for lymphatic drainage. Add this to your daily skincare routine, morning or evening, to experience what Gua Sha can do for you and your skin. If you’re not yet part of the GYM, start your free trial here.
With age the lymphatic system becomes sluggish and the vessels, both blood, and lymph diminishes. But we know a natural way to keep this system healthy, make sure we keep the wessels engaged and functioning!! It's called Faceyoga and Gua Sha.
