Gua Sha Tool

This tool is just over 3.5" x 2.25" and is handmade from copper with subtle curves to comfortably hug your client's body as you work.  The ergonomic shape makes this tool easy to handle while reducing hand fatigue.  Now featuring a burnished satin finish that enhances grip when using oils and salves.  The edges are comfortable for traditional Gua Sha or IASTM.  The domed face is well suited for scar therapy and other pulling techniques.  Besides being naturally antiviral and antimicrobial, over time the copper will take on a beautiful and unique patina that exemplifies the Japanese aesthetic of wabi-sabi.​
