TUTORIAL

Dissolve A Tension Headache

Staring at a computer screen all day / all week / all month / all year? We feel you. Keep your stone at your desk for this handy tutorial.

1.
Identify where you are feeling headache (temporal, occipital, sinus, orbital etc) pain. Use the Pointed Tip of the Empress Stone to release tension in those pressure points. Use slow, firm pressure and work in small circles.

2.

Work through tender points on the scalp and neck with the points of the Empress Stone or Empress Gua Sha Stimulating Scalp Comb.

Tip: Do what feels good.
