FIRST THINGS FIRST

Start Everyday with the Aura Ritual

Dry brush daily and apply the Aura Seaweed Detox Body Mist and Aura Rose Pepper Toning Oil to maximize your results. Focus on a different area of the body with gua sha each day.

If you experience bruising or marks from gua sha, wait until bruising has faded before working on it again.

This video will demonstrate the full Aura Ritual step-by-step.

Here is a scientific study on how gua sha strengthens the immune system.

TUTORIAL

Technique to Tighten & Tone Inner Thighs

Gua sha tones the body by restoring the health of the tissues. This means clearing stagnant lymphatic fluid as well as breaking up stuck fascia. The skin looks better and feels better as a result.

Use the Wavy Edge of your Aura Stone with two hands. Sweep from the inner knee up to the inner thigh with firm pressure. Work over the entire inner thigh in this way. This can be sore for some, ease up on the pressure if so.

Next, you'll use the Wavy Edge in a different way. Hold it perpendicular to the skin and work back and forth over the inner thigh - tap video link for refence.

Finish with several sweeps with the Curved Edge to promote lymphatic drainage.

Use as much pressure as feels good. This is an opportunity to listen to your body.
