Facial Care: Gua Sha with Yolanda Porrata

Gua Sha is an ancient healing technique that involves the pressing and stroking of a small jade or gemstone to promote flow of blood, oxygen, lymph, and nutrients. The goal is to stimulate lines along the face to help break up stagnated blood, free toxins, and ease facial tension. If you don't have a tool, a kitchen spoon can be used. If you're local to SF and want to purchase a tool or product, please email Yolanda Porrata, founder of VERA and workshop leader, as she is doing local deliveries - yolanda@verasf.com
