    • Patients in recovery post surgery and pregnant women should never perform GuaSha on the abdomen.
    • It is best to take GuaSha 1-2 hours after a meal. Do not perform GuaSha massage when you are too full, hungry, tired, or after drinking alcohol.

    Body changes after using GuaSha

    • If there is a lot of oxide in the body, body parts treated with GuaSha turns magenta or black
    • The color change is not caused by the friction from GuaSha. The magenta or black spots will disappear after about a week, and you will need to apply GuaSha after the discoloring disappears. Each subsequent session will shorten the recovery time from discoloration.
    • After GuaSha, drink plenty of warm water to discharge waste products from the body.

     

    YUGI Metal Care Methods

    • When using for the first time, soak it in a mixture of 30 parts lukewarm water and one part vinegar for about an hour to change the color of Yugi to a soft golden color. This process helps to tame the YUGI metal quickly and reduce water stains, etc.
    • In the early stages of using YUGI, completely dry the water with a dry towel after washing (wash with warm and soapy water) to avoid stains. The YUGI color takes on a dark golden color after 2-3 months, and from then on, it becomes stronger against stains.  Even after the YUGI is tamed, wiping off and washing immediately after use will help in maintaining a stainless appearance. 
    • Please Don't use a scouring rough sponge to clean the GuaSha, it can cuase damage to the surface.

     

    Enjoy the benefits of this beautiful YUGI GuaSha massage tool and fall in love with selfcare.
