We have a new service at Element! I am particularly excited about it. We searched high and low and finally found Ella, our Eastern Therapeutic Esthetician. Initially trained in China before receiving additional training in the US, Ella’s esthetic style is deeply rooted in Eastern medicine. While Ella can do a general facial, extractions, steam, and massage, she is also an expert with a gua sha tool, or specifically a jade stone, to manipulate the muscles and fascia to lift, brighten, tone, and increase circulation to the face and neck. The gua sha tool is used to open the meridians (energy channels) for better flow, which benefits overall health and wellness, creating better internal balance. Stagnation of energy and blood anywhere in the body can lead to poor health and disease.
Gua Sha Facial is suitable for all skin types in both women and men, with incredibly powerful anti-aging properties. This facial can help clear clogged pores, detoxify the skin, helps reduce acne, and hyper-pigmentation, as well as decrease dark eye circles and puffy eyes. It also provides a range of other health benefits, including reducing headaches, decreasing neck and shoulder tension, assisting sleep, and reducing stress. It’s an excellent choice for brighter, radiant, and healthier skin, and also includes extractions, exfoliation, and steam.
An hour-long session is $120.
I recommend this facial for everyone!
