Hukka Guasha, soapstone massage stone

Guasha stone is a treatment used in traditional Chinese medicine, the goal of which is to relax the muscles and boost the body's metabolism, as well as remove waste products accumulated in the body. Hukka Guasha is made of genuine, more than two billion year old, Finnish soapstone, which perfectly holds cold or hot. If you want to enhance the Guasha treatment, you can warm the stone in hot water or cool it in the refrigerator before use. In the carefully designed shape of Guasha, you will find the most suitable point for treating different parts of the body.

Things to consider in Guasha treatment:

1. Drink a glass of water or diluted tea both before and after the treatment. Rest after treatment
at least ten minutes before other chores.
2. Guasha is an effective treatment tool for treating the whole body. It is completely normal that the treated area may be
painful 1-2 days after treatment. During and after the treatment, intense redness of the skin and even bruising may also occur. This is also normal and indicates an increase in metabolism.
3. It is forbidden to use guasha on areas with rashes and injured parts of the body. Treatment should only be used for healthy people.
4. We do not recommend using guasha for people with very sensitive skin or people who bruise easily

The basic technique of Guasha treatment:

1. Hold the guasha in the hand so that it is always at an angle of about 45 degrees to the area to be treated.
2. With Guasha, you can pull and push along the skin. By adjusting the force applied and the speed of the movement, you get
different effects from the treatment. The different shapes of guasha are also suitable for pressing and rolling.
3. The top of the bones should not be treated strongly, between the bones and the sides are often good treatment areas. Also
joint areas can be treated with guasha.
4. Guasha can be used on bare skin or with massage oil. It can also be treated through clothes.

After treatment:
1. Remember to rest and drink plenty of fluids, preferably water or tea
2. Clean Guasha. You can use normal household cleaning products or put it in the dishwasher
3. Hukka Guasha is made from over two billion year old natural stone. Handle it with care, do not knock it or drop it on the floor

Hukka soapstone products are made from Finnish bedrock, which is 100% natural material.
