10 Best Gua Sha Tools to Snatch Your Jawline and Relieve Stress (2025)

Face Gym’s best-selling gua sha tool has six different edges, each with the purpose of helping you sculpt, lift, reduce puffiness, and promote lymphatic drainage. It’s ergonomically designed for easy handling and the variety of edges doesn’t let any area go untreated. It’s made from medical-grade stainless steel, which is cooling, non-irritating, and ideal for all skin types. Some people prefer this material over a healing stone because it can easily be washed and is far less fragile. It’s pricey but worth the investment since it’s extremely durable and won’t break.

ESW’s rose quartz gua sha keeps it simple. This tool helps firm and smooth skin to leave it toned and radiant. Since rose quartz is known to be quite fragile, this product comes with a canvas pouch and protective packaging to keep it safe during travel and storage.

An Amazon reviewer said: “My favorite gua sha ever! I’ve bought one off of Amazon before and it does not compare to this one. This one just glides over your face while using it whereas other ones are a bit rougher to use. I love using it everyday and you can definitely tell a difference before and after.”

Skin Gym’s facial services are among the most popular and unique types of massages. Just as the name implies, therapists will quite literally give your face a workout through a fast-paced, pressure point massage. The service includes a gua sha portion, so by popular demand the brand launched a line of at-home tools. The traditional heart-shaped gua sha is the simplest way to pass through all the pressure points on your face. This product comes in a variety of stones so you can choose a healing energy which best suits you. Choose between amethyst, jade, rose quartz, black onyx, and stainless steel. Note the crystal stones will be more fragile than the stainless steel.

Amazon rating: 4.5/5

An Amazon reviewer said: “I love this tool. I use it every day. The thing to watch out for is if you drop it. It will crack and then you are done. I especially like the rose quartz. Because of the breakage, many women get the stainless steel, but I wanted the feeling of the quartz. I am much more careful now.”

At first glance, the shining star of this product is the fun and appealing design, but after one use you'll quickly learn that it's the ergonomics that set this product apart from the rest. The open rectangle handle combined with a multi-curved edge allows you to easily move this stone up the body for a spa-like at-home massage. What you typically get in one pass with a traditional gua sha is multiplied by five. It's meant for full body use, which makes it larger than the facial gua sha so it can cover more surface area efficiently.

A scalp gua sha treatment is one of the best massages you can give yourself. While it feels like heaven, it actually helps ingredients penetrate more deeply and efficiently into the scalp, while promoting microcirculation and relaxation. Stimulating blood flow on the scalp helps protect hair follicle health.

The art of gua sha involves using a smooth-edged tool to gently scrape the skin, which helps stimulate microcirculation and increase blood flow. This process can reduce inflammation, ease muscle pain, and promote lymphatic drainage, which is essential for detoxifying the body. By targeting specific areas, gua sha can also help release tension in muscles and fascia, relieving chronic pain and improving overall mobility. Beyond the physical benefits, gua sha can profoundly impact mental well-being, offering a calming and meditative experience that reduces stress and promotes relaxation.

“There are so many beautiful benefits,” Inderma Studio founder and licensed esthetician, Nichelle Temple says. “It’s a lovely form of self-care that can reduce muscle tension, as we hold so much stress in our face. It also acts as a body and facial rejuvenation, which can result in a more lifted and sculpted face, improve skin tone, fine lines and wrinkles, reduce inflammation and help out the lymphatic system. It’s also great to help clear out sinuses and allergy puffiness in the eye area.”

Gua sha tools vary in shape, size, design, and material. Varying gua sha shapes cater to different parts of the body and face. Plus, certain materials are thought to offer different energetic properties, like rose quartz, jade, or amethyst.

The size and shape of the tool depends on its purpose. Facial sculpting is the most popular method of gua sha, but larger styles can be used for a full-body treatment or even on the scalp. Popular massage studios like The NOW Massage offer a gua sha addition to their signature services. “Gua sha can be incorporated into our full-body massages by using our smooth rose quartz tool to glide across the skin in a gentle, yet firm motion. This promotes the flow of energy, or qi, in the body, and releases stagnation that may be causing muscle pain or tension,” Matthew Perry, learning and development manager at The NOW Massage and licensed massage therapist says. You can mimic the same technique at home for full-body benefits.
