an amethyst at my feet that she claims
“wants to go home” with me—I do feel
something, a deep radiating warmth that
allows my overthinking mind to let go.
As she performs the facial gua sha, at
one point even sticking her fingers inside
my mouth for a deep, tension-relieving
buccal massage, she takes long audible
breaths that lull me into an ASMR-like
trance. Afterward, my skin does not look
totally transformed. “There’s a limita-
tion to the results you can get with gua
sha,” confirms Julia Tzu, M.D., a clinical
assistant professor at NYU’s Ronald O.
Perelman Department of Dermatology,
who recommends fillers, such as Restyl-
ane Lyft, for longer-lasting tightening.
But a superficial result seems besides the
point; I feel like I’ve been lifted from the
inside out.
I step out of Civiello Polier’s studio
into the bright Southern California sun,
conflicted by the commodification of
Chinese folk medicine and home rem-
edies. But the craving for a more holis-
tic conception of beauty feels real. I

remember something Huntzinger told
me when describing her work. “These
days, society is so yang, so active. With
the advent of social media, the yang has
been overstimulated to such a degree,
and the yin has not been nourished,”
she explains. Maybe, in a paradoxical
twist, #guasha has risen precisely from
our innate desire to restore focus on the
yin—the darker, interior, reflective parts
of ourselves.
“People are not just getting a skin-deep
treatment,” Zhang confirms of what she
sees as the technique’s actual rejuvenat-
ing benefits. She slips into Chinese for a
moment for emphasis, and I notice that
in place of “antiaging” she uses the words
yang sheng—a phrase I’ve heard often
from my aunts and grandmothers when
telling me to take care. Remembering
how the Chinese women in my life have
always emphasized that to be healthy is
to be beautiful, Zhang’s message suddenly
makes sense. After all, I’d never thought of
yang sheng as simply utilitarian: It trans-
lates more directly to “nourishing life.”@

me in Mandarin as she scrapes my back
during an hour of body acupressure with
gua sha, which goes for a modest $60.
When I ask what her tool is made of, she
chuckles. “It’s supposed to be ox horn,
but it looks like plastic to me.” I leave
with the same drained lightness coursing
throughout my body that I felt after my
experience at Ritual SF.
So why, I wonder, would I pay $285 to
visit Crystal Cave LA, a “healing hut” in
Santa Monica where Julie Civiello Polier
performs her much-blogged about “sha-
manic” gua sha facials three days a week?
Described as “a meditative journey and
intuitive reading,” the whole concept
makes me laugh before I even arrive. “I
love how gua sha gives us a tool that is
charged by the person using it and the
person receiving it,” Civiello Polier—a
petite blonde former actor—tells me of
her popular treatment’s purported energy
exchange. At least I’ll get a nice nap out of
this, I think to myself as I close my eyes.
But when Civiello Polier places crys-
tals on my various chakras—including
