Gua Sha? What is it and how I use it for banging cheek bones | Bailey Sarian

[@maureenhansen8321]

Yes girl I gua sha everyday and jade roller my skincare into my skin on the daily as well!!! You are right on the money with using downward motions on the neck because that is the proper way for lymph drainage( I am an esthetician). Xo😘

[@Krystal-O]

Do you notice results from them??

[@maureenhansen8321]

@@Krystal-O lol, that was 3 years ago and I’ve moved on to micro current and red light therapy. No big results from it, just gets blood flow going and depuffs

If you have acne, like actual “ACNE” then do not use the tool over it you will spread the bacteria but if you have a minor breakout gets some astringent and swipe over it a couple times to increase blood flow

[@Kimmaline]

My physical therapist uses one of these on me! I am spinal cord disabled and get tons of weird issues from my lymphatic problems and neurological issues...she uses it to loosen me up. It is like freaking magic!!!

[@beckyg5378]

I’m currently in physical therapy few times per week for a knee injury. My therapist does this (they call it scraping) to help break up some of the inflammation. I kid you not, this is a game changer. It’s helped sooo much!

[@keegankupcakes827]

This is really interesting! I agree that doing the downward strokes on your neck is is the better option because I’ve learned that’s the proper flow of the lymphatic system and if your goal is to decrease puffiness you want to go with the flow. I definitely want to try this out and see if it helps me!

[@anjeanetteschannel]

So cool! As a licensed massage therapist I can confirm that when working on the FRONT of the neck, you should use downward motions. On the BACK of the neck use downward motions, especially if you get migraines. Hope that helps!

[@Galaxy_Kal]

2021 question: Do you still Gua Sha? Update please? :D

[@ingridelknermusic]

Second this!

[@angelapyle7301]

Yes, I'm thinking the same thing😁

Yes update please - do you still use this?

[@JujuMama23]

Curious, too. I just ordered one!

[@allyhall4045]

Also wondering

[@imjustanasshlesometimes3488]

After watching this, I ordered Gua Sha tools and a jade roller. Been doing it twice a day, every day for 2 wks now. I see a huge difference. Also been giving my husband gua sha facials. He actually likes it. 💗

[@ninalauradionne2833]

Oh my goodness, Bailey, using a Gua Sha before it was trending!! Iconic!!

[@beautybyjosiek]

I seriously need to try this !!!!!!!

[@victoriagreenroyd3120]

Hey Bailey, from everything I've read about Gua Sha you are right about stroking downward on your throat ; apparently it's an ancient Chinese medicine forum of treating the skin. We have several lymph nodes in our face and throat area so it is only logical to drain excess fluids towards them. There's one near each temple and I believe the remainder are located in our throats. I'm impressed to see a young woman taking care of her skin in this way. I'm a migraine sufferer also and know food preservatives play a role in triggering mine. Best of everything, Victoria💚

[@gloriaperez7136]

“I know it sounds gross but.... it’s true.” I love it 😆 & now I’m sold! 💥

[@BetterCallShannon]

So mine is made out of amethyst. Also not shaped the same way. However I just got it last week, and already I see a difference when using. I suggest for people with normal to combo skin, to use an oil because other products dry quickly on the face and you certainly want this thing to glide.

[@BeST_70]

Bailey! You are never a mess. I really need to invest in a facial massager or a face gizmo because seriously, this RBF is really starting to effect my job. :-)

[@lauraramirez-angel5506]

You should make this a Bailey does video. Like go to an esthetician/cosmetologist/ doctor/eastern doctor and find out what they think about Gua Sha, could be interesting. Although you do sound like an expert, LOL.

[@ShaRaeBurr]

I know you didn't ask me to or what not but I shouted you out on Marlene(makeupgeek)'s channel. I just really feel like you are amazing and sure underrated and need more love and yea a lot of people jumped on my shout-out comment and agreed with me. 💖💖💖 love you😘😘😘

[@octoberdawn1087]

Sooo.... with these you are actually suppose to motion down... always go in the direction of the heart to drain lymphones..... oh now your talking about it. 😆 it helped me so much. Mine is rose quartz. They all work the same. You can do your arms and legs, too. Go in the direction toward your heart. Oil helps.

So I’ve been binge watching your videos and funny enough the Gua sha is trending right now so😅

[@laceibarber3113]

Right? Same. I just bought one today😂

[@lianabeth]

the moment you mentioned using this on your neck for migraines i immediately ordered one. i did some reading on the different types of materials used in gua sha tools... apparently, bian stone is the best and most effective. the frequency at which it resonates makes it the most "potent". jade is also recommended because it's frequency is similar to that of the human body and it is said to have qi. i thought you might find this interesting... or really boring. im a nerd.

[@MelH87]

I wake up so puffy that people at work ask me if I’m ok... it’s like a regular thing. It looks like I’ve been crying all night. I purchased that Nurse Jamie tool that’s supposed to help with inflammation and circulation, but I swear it doesn’t do crap and it was expensive. I want to try this.

@@BaileySarian Girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta DO 😊

[@Doctorskin3]

Hey jade is semi porous meaning it can pick up bacteria and such while rose quartz is non porous. The reason I mention this is because jade can contribute to acne because of the semi porosity of it

[@madelineasmr926]

You are beautiful without makeup 😇 I put one of these on my Ulta list last night. Can’t wait to buy it and add it to my skincare routine 😌

[@daniellehrdlicka5581]

When you dry brush, you brush towards the heart so it makes sense, IMO to scrape down. Similar kind of skin care practice.

[@ericaluna01]

I ordered one! I should get it tomorrow. I can’t wait!

[@susantaylor605]

Could you please recommend a great pore minimizing facial primer that works. I love your tutorials. Thank you.

[@intothevoid10]

I got into scraping and guasha after my massage therapist used it on me for back pain! I look like I got hit by a car but you feel so great after

[@Patti-1962]

I do body brushing, and I was told to brush towards the heart. If Gua Sha is at all similar, then you would scrape down on the neck. I am really interested in this, so I am going to do some research. I live with chronic pain, so I appreciate your sharing this!

[@PeggyMintun]

[@storm3927]

do you still use it? i want to try it. i think i'll move upwards because drainage sounds uncomfortable and it'll probably be better to wake me up.

Bailey get a scalp massager to use while shampooing it helps drain the fluid and helps release the tension from the migraines. Best $10 I've ever spent it's better than getting your hair washed at the hairdresser 🥴

[@sweetpeachbellini8245]

I'm going to check out the Gua Shua online before I buy it but it looks like a really cool tool to add to my skin and body care routine. I'm getting a jade and rose quartz face roller as well as a Hansa massager. A good friend who also suffers from migraines and arthritis has recommended the Hansa massage tool to me. She hasn't had a bad migraine since she started including a weekly Hansa massage and her arthritis (we both have rheumatoid and osteo arthritis) hasn't made her reach for her pain meds. There are a lot of alternative therapies out there that don't cost mucho dinero but like anything, it's always best to research.

[@blacksunshine7122]

Oh! That's what they used on my knee at the physical therapist. I thought it would hurt and I thought they were crazy haha it didn't hurt tho. I was wondering what that was. I forgot. They used lotion tho. I think it was coco butter. Physical therapists like to use cocoa butter.

[@margaretocasio2840]

Very interesting. I’ve never heard of it.

[@keaton_]

Okay, so the fluid that’s draining is lymphatic fluid. While we have lymphatic fluid throughout our bodies, it isn’t self-circulating the same way our blood is. So, it circulates through manual movement. That’s basically why gua sha works the way it does. It’s just light compression and pushes that lymph around. SO, for any body part from the neck down, you always work in the direction toward your heart. It’s just kind of the general rule. For the neck, go down, obviously. For legs, up, etc.

[@29helen38]

Thanks...I m defenitively go and check on that.espacially for draining faces fluids and migrains...Gua cha party on🤣🤣

[@bebesomething]

what's the difference between jade and a rose quartz roller? I see so many different ones

[@gypsysnickerdoodle4354]

The difference is between Traditional (Chinese/Asian) Medicine & Western Medicine. In some traditions, gua sha along a meridian direction can move Qi, blood & essence Bear in mind, TCM advocates layers of the body from outside, inwards. Qi stagnation & blood stagnation are highly undesirable
