Directions:
- Stimulate the lymph nodes by firmly pressing the nodes in your neck, armpit, and the top of the thigh and abdomen 5 to 10 times before your lymphatic massage. This will activate the key lymph nodes in these areas and further improve circulation.
- Start by preparing your skin with a body oil.
- Take your Body Gua Sha and use short strokes, gently massaging the fluid in one direction towards the lymph nodes.
- Lymphatic massage strokes are gentle, light, slow, rhythmic, and nurturing.
Legs:
- Start by pumping or pressing your lymph nodes at the back of your knees 5-10 times.
- Then, use short, gentle strokes and work up each leg and thigh toward the inside of your knee.
- Focus on working into the pelvic ligament area for the maximum lymphatic flow and drainage benefit.
Arms:
- Place your hand like a cap over your shoulder.
- Massage half circles up and over your shoulder ten times.
- Next, massage from your forearm up toward the armpit.
- Now move to the elbow crease: Using your palm, pump directly into your elbow crease.
- Once you’ve cleared the upper arm, you can massage from your lower arm and your fingers up toward your armpit in slow, continuous strokes, encouraging the fluid into the armpit.
- To finish, massage the lymph nodes in your armpits again.
Abdominal Area:
- Start at your obliques and move downward towards the belly button.
- When working on the abdomen itself, you want to work in a clockwise circular motion, encouraging the flow of digestion.
Tips for Effective Gua Sha:
- Apply medium pressure throughout the massage. Pressure that is too light may not provide adequate stimulation, while too much pressure can lead to discomfort or bruising.
- Always move the Gua Sha in upward motions to encourage lymphatic drainage.
Caution:
- Trained practitioners should perform Gua Sha to ensure safety and effectiveness.
- Improper technique or excessive pressure can cause bruising or skin damage.
- Gua Sha is not recommended for people with certain health conditions, such as those with bleeding disorders or who are taking blood-thinning medications.

- Store it in a cool, dry place.
- Clean the roller with a gentle soap and water after each use.
