Jade Roller Vs Gua Sha⁠. What's the difference?⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Jade rolling is mainly a lymphatic drainage massage, and gua sha is a fascial [i.e., fibrous tissue] release massage. While it may seem they have only recently become popular, they have been used for centuries in asian culture for their numerous benefits. Their common goal is to promote optimal circulation and lymphatic drainage.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Benefits of a Jade roller⁠⁠
⁠⁠
✨ The gentle pressure helps to stimulate circulation and leave the facial muscles more relaxed⁠⁠
✨ By encouraging lymphatic drainage, this boosts the skin’s natural detoxification process⁠⁠
✨ The naturally cooling sensation helps to calm the skin, depuff, and soothe inflammation. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Benefits of Gua Sha⁠⁠
⁠⁠
✨ Relaxes Face muscles⁠⁠
Helps to iron out the fascia [connective tissue] that is affected by tension. which can lift the face.⁠⁠
✨ Reduces Puffiness⁠⁠
Like a jade roller, it works on the lymphatic systems. The sweeping movements of the gua sha tool, combined with the pressure used as the tool is pressed against the skin, helps to improve lymphatic drainage, reducing puffy skin and under-eye bags.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
⁠⁠
So which is better? It all depends on your needs and skin type. They both help with lymphatic drainage but the Gua Sha can have more of an immediate effect. However, if you have sensitive skin or rosacea, a jade roller will be more gentle.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Gua Sha and Jade Rollers aren't essential and they are not going to perform miracles but if you enjoy skincare as selfcare, they make a welcome addition to your routine.⁠⁠
