Philadelphia, PA -- (SBWire) -- 06/18/2018 --The simplicity and effectiveness of facial treatments and skin rejuvenation therapies from ancient times did not happen by accident. For centuries, civilizations have had their individual ways to improve the skin and make it more radiant, healthy, and beautiful. One of these ancient practices is called gua sha, and it's now available at Green City Beauty.
Green City Beauty, the premier provider of alternatives to waxing in Philly, is honored to provide the time-tested art and treatment of gua sha for their customers. The practice dates back to the 5th-7th century and has been used to repair skin cells and aid in their regeneration, healing, and recovery ever since. It is still used to this day, in eastern countries such as Vietnam, Indonesia, and China.
Roughly translated as "to scrape wind," this ancient treatment involves using a smoothly-shaped instrument, typically a Chinese ceramic spoon or piece of jade, to apply repeated strokes across skin which has been lubricated. In some cases, ginger soaked in rice wine may be rubbed on the body to reduce fatigue and tension.
The passionate and dedicated skin specialists at Green City Beauty are proud to feature this centuries-old practice, not only because it's proven to be effective, but because it's consistent with their own skincare philosophy, which advocates for all-natural ingredients and techniques to impart luster, brilliance, and renewal to their clients' skin.
There are numerous benefits to gua sha treatment. It serves as a method to decongest skin and improve the circulation below it. Gua sha can also release facial tension, detoxify skin, clear acne, promote skin cell rejuvenation and growth, and provide brighter and healthier-looking skin.
