Had a Chinese friend serve me warm water with some herbs to all our meals. I found it weird at first, but she told me that "cold water and warm food would only make trouble in the stomach" and that I had to choose whether to cool down or heat up. Helping the body keep up heat, gave the body time to do other things. Drinking cold water would make the job harder for the body, and the gut and brain would be less prioritized and suffer. I still drink cold water, but sometimes I choose tea, and think about this. And after all, I know my body calms down with warm drinks. Glad to hear this being backed up!
I just started incorporating Gua Sha into my skin care routine and had no idea the instructions that came with my tool were so wrong. They practically advise you to do all the WRONG things! Thank you for this informative video!
05:30 I totally sense what you are saying regarding heat and health. I have friends who, after many failed attempts to have a baby (miscarriages, etc), went to see a Chinese doctor. He said the mother should be warm at anytime and not to ever get anything cold around her belly (no cold baths, no going in the swimming pool, always cover her stomach in winter with an extra protection). And indeed, they now have a baby at long last.
Mam, you are phenomenal in explaining this graciously, humbly and in a way I wish to emulate. Western society has taken a lot of cultural practices and commercialized them, it’s hard not to be upset about these things.
I am Chinese and born in the 60s and I totally agree with all the explanations on this video. I cringe when I see videos who think they know what they are doing and scrape downwards on the movement they should be doing upward moments
@@Connie_From_AZ , You mean, L.A.c. 😛 On that note, it would be concidered a fraudulent act to do so if they have no proper paperwork to prove their education in the field__similar to a person putting "M.D." after their name without ever going to medical school. 😺
@@debracisneroshhp2827 YES EXACTLY.... THANKS. I was more than half asleep when I wrote that and needed to head out. That's why I put etc etc. LoL. I see a lot of fake rental property investor with LLC on OfferUp, Craigslist and in FB groups. I'm happy to hear FB will be removing rentals, job search groups that have been abandoned and or with no admins. Anyway, if I made another error just lmk. It is 3:20 AM. I need to get back to sleep. 👏🏻
Just bought my first Gua Sha, BUT as a long time acupuncture patient with my limited understanding of traditional chinese medicine, I felt like there had to be a deep history of the correct methodology to use it correctly and healthily. So glad I found your channel!
Thank you!!! I’m an Esthetician and I follow your instructions and they work!! I’ve so many fellow estheticians tell me that I’m wrong. So annoying. Thanks again for putting this out there!
I’m a Lanshin lover too and I yes- her techniques definitely work! As for your colleagues, let the results speak for themselves! My face is a testament to Sandra’s mastery when my friends, also middle-aged, say stuff like “You know that stuff doesn’t really work”. I say “Well, it’s part meditation and… this is the best my face has EVER looked
@@TrinaGallo Those asthetician just hasn't bother to research Eastern techniques for skincare, simply because "not enough scientific research," which is annoying to hear because there could be reasons WHY there's not enough research on these techniques, and racism is part of it. If they're so worried about "not enough research," then do something about it instead of sitting there making that statement. That's part of a scientist in any field.
I clicked on here because I wanna hear you. What Kendall does is not interesting to me because they have all the money in the world to do all the fixing on themselves in the world.
Yeah, for sure she's a fraud just like the rest of the family. She doesn't do Dua sha. She has fillers and Botox to tighten their skin. I hate the fact that they try to relate to us, when in reality they don't. 🙄
So glad your information is out there! I recently started “gua sha” and have been searching for good videos to learn. So I’m sticking with you. Thank you for your info and instruction. It is super important to know the origins and intent of what and where gua sha came from. As a Chinese American, my mom always talked about hot and cold and how we had to drink hot tea. I didn’t understand that until you explained about heat and cold for the body. Thanks again, really appreciate you☺️
You just popped up on my feed and I'm so pleased. I've been wanting to try gua sha for ages and didn't know how to start. This is an excellent video. Thank you so much.
Thank you for this info, it’s exactly what i needed from a professional. I’m here to learn and appreciate a cultural healing tradition. I love it. I don’t care about any celebrity and their beauty/health routine.
This is so informative!! I've just started dipping my toe into Gua Sha, and I want to do it as correctly and with as much respect to TCM as possible. I've just subscribed; I feel like I'll learn a lot watching you!
I'm so glad this video popped up on my front page. I always skipped that stroke down the neck because I did not like that tension feeling, and it doesn't go down smooth. So I'm glad you offered a better method. Can't wait to try!
I am a licensed master aesthetician and I completely agree with you. Kendall has no license to say and teach this technique and she also has no knowledge of the eastern philosophy that goes with this. But because she is a celebrity, gullible people will believe and follow this. I have actually studied your technique many years ago amongst others. Thank you for your gentle explanation of the real facts. ❤
Pretty sure the world knows that Kendal is not licensed. Lol. The woman in this video is at least gracious about the way she points out the minor issues that were there. Kendal is just informing the world of her routine. No one takes anything a celebrity does as serious.
what does philosophy have to do with rubbing stuff on your face? I am asian too but I am an atheist and spirituality is nothing to me. Let Kendal use it, you just come off as a gate keeper
Funny how these “influencers” find OLD things and make them viral 🙄 You have a gua sha video that’s six years old! 🥰 Thanks for showing people the correct treatment procedures ☺
Congrats! You managed to catch my attention for about 4 secs (this is when I usually scroll on by), & I proceeded to watch the entire video---LOVED the explanation!
I stopped drinking ice water and I get my cold coffee with light ice, always. I learned about how bad it was for my gut when I was working to heal it. It's crazy how addicted my body was to cold water at bed time. I really struggled for a few weeks to break it. No one ever talks about heat first then cold plunge, thank you for sharing!
I'm almost done watching this video. I HAVE to comment again, this is an excellent, excellent video!!! I've watched other "routine" videos, this is by far more instructive. 💥
Glad I found this vid! A tiktok i saw talked about how to "release tension" in face muscles (my smile lines are my main concern rn) persuaded me to start gua sha. I also noticed that a scraping tool was used in my physical therapy for my knee recently, and the gua sha reminded me of that, so interesting that fascia and muscles are targeted with it!
Kendall murders Gua Sha…Her speedy, rushing techniques will creat more wrinkles. Sandra’s proper forms and detail instructions makes great sense and so thankful for that..
I love the similiarity between TCM and Ayurveda. I hate that it gets watered down and altered so badly in the west! Thank you for sharing the authentic method of practicing Gua Sha. So very appreciated!
I think it is because they both come from a deep wisdom. 2 years ago I went to Panchakarma - ayurvedic retreat to India - it is a great way how to detoxify the body natural way. This year we are going again with a group of people for cheaper price. My friends goes every year as it helped her to heal the migrane. I like the holistic approach. We should understand the roots when doing something…I loved this video❤
Thank you so much for demonstrating the true technique of TCM, watching these other people who think they know what their doing and doing it wrong will create lose skin and added wrinkles especially the way these young influencers use the tools incorrectly.
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us on how to use gua sha properly. I started to using it about a week ago, and coming across your channel has been so helpful. I am 55 years old, and it would be nice to see a video of using gua sha for mature skin if you haven't made one already or if there's a different way to use it for older women 😅 Thanks !
Really great! Thank you! As an Esthetician and herbalist who has worked for years with many eastern healing modalities in my practice, mostly Ayurveda, but there are a lot of parallels between the two (TCM) there is so much valuable info here!
I am new to your channel and have always been fascinated by Chinese medicine and culture. I am also new to Gua Sha and your tutorial alongside Kendall Jenner was just the thing I needed this morning so thank you so much! I learned a lot.
Thank you for this clarity…so many people demonstrate this and it seems it is just for looks…not all over health. It’s like the people removing cysts from their friends or families…dangerous and causing damage instead of benefits and helping
I learned how to properly gua sha from one of your videos many years ago and it had been really helpful. Thank you for all you do to educate on proper technique and TCM.
Also maybe start incorporating a tablespoon of sunflower seeds a day, or sesame seeds. Both are warm seeds, we take them leading upto our periods to warm up the body and reduce prostaglandins, so less menstrual cramps! Eating more chickpeas also helps
Thank you for this deep dive into the basics of gua sha down to the meaning. I realize I’ve been doing much to aggressively but have only been doing it a week. When you know better- you do better. Love the lesson on cold energy now I understand why I enjoy room and warm temperature beverages❤❤❤. Better digestion --something my great grandfather lived by.
I'm so glad you popped up for me. I'm going to a TCM for several years and often hurts my feelings reminding me to reduce cold intake. I've been doing a similar guasha massage as you demo periodically for 4yrs. It seems to work well for me. I'm often complimented on my skin
This was so eye opening. I always call Gua sha first and fore most lymphatic draining technique. But now realizing that it is only the first layer. But funnily I use gua sha first and foremost as a fascia release method. Now I know how to connect my speech and my action. 👌👍❤️
I've been doing gua sha for a few years and I have been doing my neck all wrong, so this was very helpful. I also appreciated how she broke down how Kendall was doing her gua sha incorrectly, in a very positive uplifting way. Awesome video.
Great vid & explanations. For those with excess buccal & submental padding such as myself, I *have* to use an iced tool directly on my lower face because this works incredibly well to smooth/contour my face down. I then use LED or a warm RF treatment *afterwards* if I want to achieve a more contoured finish. Not often though, only 2-3 times a month.
Love love love your educational videos including this one! This is amazing how you explain not only what is incorrect but also why and the correct ways also. So grateful for Cassandra Bankson who referred your page. You can tell how knowledgable and well educated you are and that you have the degrees and licensing behind it! Love a well educated Guru...particularly someone who comes from the culture/practices in question!
I agree with you. As I have gotten older I have started gravitating to ancient medical and spiritual traditions. 2500+ years of study and observation of the human body and mind? Yes, please.
Just like most of the people watching your video, I research a lot regarding health, etc.... and explaining the the techniques makes a lot of sense. Thank you for the info!
AHHH I LOVE THIS AND YOU!! The passion and education is just wonderful, I definitely love applying ancient methods as accurately as possible. Thank you 💓💞
When you were talking about cold vs warm. It reminds me of the principle of molecules- when they are warm, they move more rapidly vs the colder it gets the slower they move.
Hi! Medically certified, licensed massage therapist here!!!! I ALWAYS tell my clients to go authentic! As in go eastern authentic not western homogenized because you’ll be missing some of the most important parts of the service!
Thank you so much for explaining proper techniques. I've always been fascinated by Chinese medicine and how it helps heal and works with the body, not against it.
Thank you for a very informative video. As a yoga teacher it’s important for me to honor the roots of a practice. I really appreciate how you explained everything so well
I love you!! You are very educational, you have great energy, you're fun, and you seem so sweet. I wish you practiced in Austin, TX. I will definitely continue watching your videos. Thank you for the help that you provide others.
Found this incredibly helpful and insightful - also spritzing face before using facial oil , don’t live in USA and not a Kardashian fan 🪭- but I understand why you used her as example of what not to do ! Thank you 🙏🏻
I purchased the tool that she uses in this video from Lanshin and it is very helpful and I was happy with the way my skin felt and looked after watching and following step by step :)
I wanted to try gua sha and your video is the first one I came across (beside the influencers on tiktok). I am so glad I found this video before trying it!!
Thank you so much!! Love how u go into details and explain 💐🙏 One topic tho I would like to ask u go deeper even, the heat, or actually cold thingi 🙏 ...gladly not that often anymore (bc learned See signs before) but still can happen once a yr I get such a heavy and fast headache attac, the only help is complete darkness and coldest towel on my neck (if not could actually start throw up)...so I am curious more about temperature related shares more, if u feel to 🤲🤗 thank you 🙏 and maybe we not celebrate the new yr gregorian ways, still well wishes your ways for the new cycle
I've always wondered what the benefits of using gua sha tools are (like the ones you've designed and used here) instead of just hands. Even though I'm gentle, I feel intuitively that using just my hands is better, but maybe I'm using the gua sha tools incorrectly? This video was so insightful and educational! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and instruction.
Using tools allows us to have more power, go deeper, get more results, etc! Using your hands is great for facial massage -- but it won't be Gua Sha! Gua Sha by definition is with a tool.
Thank you so much for sharing this information. I was curious about gua sha and wanted to get into it, but it is very hard to find information about traditional gua sha on the internet! I would have loved to buy a book, but I couldn't find any. I really want to learn more before I try it out and will watch more of your videos
Good information. I just got my kit. I used green tea extract and followed a TH-cam video for my first time. I only did the left side. I could see the difference. The oil didn't aggravate my skin either so thats a plus.
That's so interesting to learn ice is not considered healthy in TCM and I have Chinese lineage but my digestive in Human Design is a cold digestion. I am going to try limiting ice intake.
Uhm clicked on this by accident, and the passion in the speech kept me til the end. Amen
Me too!
Love the passion. I'll be staying now.

Yep

Yeah me too

One topic tho I would like to ask u go deeper even, the heat, or actually cold thingi 🙏 ...gladly not that often anymore (bc learned See signs before) but still can happen once a yr I get such a heavy and fast headache attac, the only help is complete darkness and coldest towel on my neck (if not could actually start throw up)...so I am curious more about temperature related shares more, if u feel to 🤲🤗 thank you 🙏 and maybe we not celebrate the new yr gregorian ways, still well wishes your ways for the new cycle
Thank you for this video, I just found you! I like how you were not rude about Kendall's technique. I need to explore your videos! Thank you!
realllyyyyyy great actual correct explanation THANK YOU!!!
Thank you for sharing authentic Chinese techniques amongst all the noise
This video is solid gold. Thank you so much for doing this!!
I've always wondered what the benefits of using gua sha tools are (like the ones you've designed and used here) instead of just hands. Even though I'm gentle, I feel intuitively that using just my hands is better, but maybe I'm using the gua sha tools incorrectly?
This video was so insightful and educational! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and instruction.
Using tools allows us to have more power, go deeper, get more results, etc! Using your hands is great for facial massage -- but it won't be Gua Sha! Gua Sha by definition is with a tool.
@@Lanshinthank you for your reply. Excited to learn more 💗
Omg first, you are the cutest ever! Second, this video is amazing in too many ways to count! Thank you so much!
Unbelievable, the amount of misinformation out there for following these influencers. Thank you much for this video! Will shared 🙏🏽
Well who would follow celebs..lol
Thank you for this video!! Gua sha looks so therapeutic, I'm looking forward to implementing it in my daily routine 🤍🤍🤍
Thank you so much for sharing this information. I was curious about gua sha and wanted to get into it, but it is very hard to find information about traditional gua sha on the internet! I would have loved to buy a book, but I couldn't find any. I really want to learn more before I try it out and will watch more of your videos
Good information. I just got my kit. I used green tea extract and followed a TH-cam video for my first time. I only did the left side. I could see the difference. The oil didn't aggravate my skin either so thats a plus.
Love the explanation on why it shld be done this way and not the other!
i can really feel your passion, thank you for spreading the knowledge what a gift
Thank you! Represent actual TCM. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Thank god I came here right after watching Kendall’s video 😮 I learned so much so happy I found you 😍😍
by far the most helpful video I’ve seen… Thank you
This whole video was so helpful. It was also helpful to see the difference in the wrong practices or misconceptions in videos like Kendall's. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
It was so helpful! As i just bought one , and surfing Internet up and down to learn how to use it!
That's so interesting to learn ice is not considered healthy in TCM and I have Chinese lineage but my digestive in Human Design is a cold digestion. I am going to try limiting ice intake.
I really appreciate your advice because it is coming from a licensed professional. Thank you. Looking forward to seeing more videos.
My favorite oil to use after cleansing is the Clarins Blue orchid treatment oil.
waiting for the Bo Jin video!! Very informative video!!
Same!!! ❤
Great information to use my GUA Sha tool the correct way. Thank you so much. Just ordered numerous items from your website.
This is great, thank you. Appreciate all of your info and for your recommendation for folks to seek out registered/liscenced tcm providers for guasha.
