Unwind Forehead Lines - Gua Sha Tutorial
Welcome to your Gua Sha Tutorial. In this video, we will be targeting to forehead to release tension, fascia adhesion to prevent or reduce wrinkles in the forehead area and 11 Lines.
First, we need to have a proper understanding of the Facial muscles from the forehead. The frontalis muscle is responsible for lifting the eyebrows, while the occipitalis muscle, located at the back of the head, pulls the scalp backward, which affects the forward movement of the forehead muscles.
These two muscles are interconnected by the galea aponeurotica, a sheet of connective tissue (fascia). When the occipitalis muscles are tense, they restrict the movement of the frontalis, causing tightness in the forehead.
Releasing tension in the occipitalis and the scalp is crucial because it frees up the frontalis muscles, allowing for smoother movement, reduced tension, and a more relaxed, youthful appearance.
To complete this class you will need a mist or water spray, facial oil and your Gua Sha.
