Prettier at the press of a fingertip? Uh-huh, itβs possible.
Here's How
Let me start by stating the obvious: You are a total goddess, . You donβt need to be prettier. Youβve got that in the bag.
(Not to mention wit, wisdom and intelligence in spades. π)
Butβ¦ if youβre looking for a way to holistically support your natural beauty, then youβre in luck: Iβve got just the thing.
Meet the pretty pressure points
If you havenβt heard of pressure points before, theyβre specific areas of the body that, when stimulated, TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) believes will improve the energy flow in your body.
As a TCM practitioner, Iβve seen the game-changing potential of pressure points irl. Simply by stimulating a clientβs pressure point, Iβve been able to:
Improve blood flow to my clientβs face (resulting in a clearer, smoother and more glowing complexion).
Enhance oxygen, nutrients and hydration in a clientβs skin (which makes the skin look plumper and healthier).
Reduce and relax muscle tension, resulting in a more youthful, toned appearance.
Amazing, right?! And, best of all, itβs super simple to learn how to DIY your pressure point massage at home.
Hereβs how.
How to give yourself a pressure point facial massage
Step one: Start with clean hands (a good rule for everything, really!)
Step two: Grab your gua sha tool (you can clean it with rubbing alcohol before using it to avoid cross-contamination).
Step three: Using your gua sha tool, apply pressure to your pressure point until it feels a little gritty or βouchβ. This will mean you have a nice spot, and the pressure is working its magic.
Step four: Apply pressure point for one-minute (to each pressure point β itβll be six minutes total for your entire face).
And voila β youβre done! You can repeat this ritual every day.
βWait, Casey, *where* are these six pretty pressure points?β
Your six pretty pressure points can be found: Around the forehead β frontalis muscle -, the yintang β which is between the eyebrows -, underneath the eyes on the cheeks, in the jaw joint close to the ear, along the edge of the jawline on the muscle belly, and on the edge of the nose in the nasolabial fold.
All soundinβ Greek to you? Hereβs a diagram to help you out.
